1. A method comprising: restricting at least one functionality associated with a document according to a compliance policy, the document being associated with a sender device;transmitting the document to at least one recipient device;receiving, in a rights management server associated with the sender device, a request to un-restrict the at least one functionality associated with the document, the request being associated with an application associated with viewing of the document on the at least one recipient device;receiving, in the rights management server, an indication from a compliance server associated with the at least one recipient device, wherein the rights management server is associated with the sender device and the compliance server is associated with the at least one recipient device, the indication being associated with whether the at least one recipient device complies with the compliance policy;determining, in the rights management server, whether the at least one recipient device complies with the compliance policy based at least in part upon the indication received from the compliance server;transmitting, from the rights management server to the compliance server, an authorization to un-restrict the at least one functionality associated with the document; andin response to determining that the at least one recipient device complies with the compliance policy, initiating un-restricting the at least one functionality associated with the document by the application associated with viewing of the document by the at least one recipient device. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the document comprises at least one of the following: an e-mail message, a text message, a word processing document, a spreadsheet, a presentation, an instant message, a binary file, an audio file, a video file, a voicemail, and a contact information document. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the compliance policy is associated with a first organization. 4. The method of claim 3, wherein the sender device of the document is associated with the first organization. 5. The method of claim 4, wherein the at least one recipient device is associated with a second organization. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the at least one functionality comprises at least one of the following: opening the document, forwarding the document, modifying the document, saving the document, deleting the document, opening the document, and sharing the document. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein restricting the at least one functionality comprises encrypting the document. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein restricting the at least one functionality comprises requiring at least one compliance policy be in effect before the at least one functionality is un-restricted. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein the at least one compliance policy comprises at least one of the following: a device restriction, a device requirement, a user restriction, a time restriction, and a location restriction. 10. The method of claim 1, further comprising: logging the request to un-restrict the at least one functionality associated with the document. 11. A system comprising: a memory storage; anda processor coupled to the memory storage, wherein the processor is configured to: receive a document comprising at least one restricted functionality,identify a requirement for un-restricting the at least one restricted functionality by receiving a compliance policy from a compliance server, wherein the system is associated with a first user and the compliance server is associated with a second user,satisfy the requirement for un-restricting the at least one restricted functionality by facilitating a communication between a second compliance server associated with the first user to the compliance server associated with the second user, andperform the un-restricted at least one functionality. 12. The system of claim 11, wherein the second user comprises a sender of the document. 13. The system of claim 11, wherein being operative to satisfy the requirement for un-restricting the at least one restricted functionality comprises the processor being further operative to instruct the second compliance server to provide at least one compliance policy associated with the system to the compliance server associated with the second user. 14.
