1. A method of enhancing security in a collaboration environment through application access control, the method comprising: receiving, on a console associated with a web-based collaboration system in the collaboration environment, settings associated with one or more available applications for collaboration, wherein the one or more available applications are configurable by a user with appropriate permissions via the web-based collaboration system; providing, by the web-based collaboration system, the one or more available applications to a first collaborator and a second collaborator included in multiple collaborators of the collaboration environment, wherein providing the one or more available applications includes making the one or more available applications selectable by the first collaborator and the second collaborator; receiving, from the first collaborator, a selection associated with an application of the one or more available applications via one of multiple user devices associated with the first collaborator; integrating, by the web-based collaboration system, the application for use by the first collaborator via the web-based collaboration system; applying, by the web-based collaboration system, security settings to accounts associated with the multiple collaborators configured by the user with the appropriate permissions, wherein the security settings include setting exceptions based on one or more of content or location-based criteria associated with the first collaborator, and include allowing or restricting access by a mobile device from the multiple user devices associated with the first collaborator; identifying that the application includes default settings enforced on accounts associated with the first collaborator and the second collaborator of the multiple collaborators, wherein the default settings include either edit access or view access for the first collaborator and the second collaborator enforced by the web-based collaboration system, wherein the application is included in the one or more available applications for collaboration by the first collaborator and the second collaborator of the multiple collaborators; and upon detecting an attempt to delete the application from the web-based collaboration system by the second collaborator in the multiple collaborators, preventing deletion of the application, wherein the application includes the default settings.
