Secure File Transfer

Secure File Transfer allows HSC users to securely send or receive files that exceed the 50 MB attachment size limitations of the campus email system. Secure File Transfer helps safeguard the confidentiality and integrity of Sensitive Data in compliance with HIPAA and other regulatory requirements. Encryption protects sensitive data from unauthorized access during electronic transmission.

All files that are put into the Secure File Transfer will be held there for 5 days and then automatically deleted.
