What’s the best way to securely share files and confidential documents with clients without relying on Google Drive?
I’ve noticed that a lot of businesses, freelancers, agencies, and even legal professionals still use regular cloud storage links and email attachments for sensitive file sharing, even though privacy and cybersecurity concerns are becoming more serious every year.
Things like contracts, onboarding documents, invoices, financial records, and identity verification files are often shared through links that can stay active indefinitely or get forwarded without much control.
Recently I started researching secure file sharing platforms and encrypted document sharing tools that offer temporary links, private access, expiring downloads, and browser-based encryption, and honestly it feels like this approach makes much more sense for confidential document exchange.
Now I'm curious, what other people are using to share sensitive files?
Update: Someone recently suggested Mboxly a privacy focused file sharing tool with encrypted delivery and temporary password-protected links. Are more people switching to tools like this for sensitive file sharing?
