If you’re handling sensitive information, there are some important things to consider when posting files. First of all, only share the data that they require. This will lessen the risk that your information will fall into the wrong hands in the aftermath of a data breach or leak. Second, make use of equipment to prevent unauthorised editing. For instance, if working on an Excel spreadsheet with someone else, there are software programs that allow you to lock the document whilst editing. This prevents accidental or malicious changes and ensures that numbers remain precise.
It’s also important to delete the data you don’t need and to secure it so that any unauthorized access to the data will be impossible to read if it is intercepted during the transfer of data from your database to an individual. Platforms that claim to keep your data safe and secure will only allow authentic users to access, edit the data, and erase it. The platform will automatically encrypt data that is transferred between databases.
This feature provides assurance that your data is secure, it also eases the burden and increases convenience for users by removing the requirement for them to establish an online portal. Like Portal, files exchanged through Share Safe are encrypted to block unauthorized viewing. Users can access your company’s URL, instead of logging in to the portal.
