What SecureFiles does

Large attachments burst every mail server limit. SecureFiles instead uploads them into storage and provides recipients with a download link. Transmission is encrypted in transit with TLS and at rest with AES-256, on request additionally end to end in zero-knowledge mode.

The download runs directly between recipient and storage through signed links. File content passes no intermediate proxy, which reduces the attack surface and keeps the transfer fast, even at several gigabytes per file.

Core functions

  • Send large attachments securely, through multipart upload and retryable. Details under sending files.
  • Recipient authentication through email address, password and verified identity. See recipient authentication.
  • Receive and request files through a secure inbox, shared pools and guided requests. See inbox and receiving.
  • Expiry policies and retention with automatic, provable deletion. See storage and quota.
  • Straight from Outlook with the SecureFiles add-in.

Security and compliance

Every transfer, every download and every policy violation lands in the central audit log under GDPR Art. 30. IP addresses are hashed, deleted actors are pseudonymised. Before every release a malware scan checks the files, infected uploads never reach the recipient. Related protection for the mail channel is found in the attachment filter of MailGuard.

SecureFiles meets the technical and organisational measures of GDPR Art. 32 by default and is NIS2 ready. The GDPR-compliant file transfer solution page gives the background.
