onTracument's Managed File Transfer: Secure Send
In 2023, the law firm Grubman Shire Meiselas & Sack suffered a significant data breach, according to ChartRequest. Hackers gained access to the personal details of numerous A-list celebrities, including email addresses, contracts, non-disclosure agreements, and entertainment royalty secrets. The attackers demanded a ransom of $21 million, which later doubled to $42 million. While the firm did not pay the ransom, the information that they lost is mostly still at large.
This incident serves as a stark reminder that security measures must be proactive; they are not a “set it and forget it” task.
This principle is particularly important for file transfers. While features like speed and integration are appealing, security must always be an organisation's top priority. Tracument's Secure Send meets this requirement by providing a method that combines the simplicity of email with the security of a courier service, ensuring that files remain protected throughout their journey.
What is Secure Send?
Secure Send is Tracument's version of Managed File Transfer (MFT). It allows professionals to easily send any number, type, or size of file instantly. Files are encrypted from end-to-end and stored solely in Canada, ensuring exclusive access by the sender and recipient. Secure Send is easy to use because the people receiving the file transfer don't have to make a Tracument account or install software; they just need an email address.
