What measures are in place to ensure the integrity and authenticity of transferred files?
Updated over 3 months ago

To ensure the integrity and authenticity of transferred files, Filemail employs several robust measures:

  • Encryption in Transit: Files are encrypted during transit using HTTPS using TLS 1.2, utilizing AES-256 encryption. This protects the data from interception and tampering as it travels across networks.

  • Unique File Identification: Each file uploaded to Filemail's servers is assigned a unique identifier. This identifier ensures that files cannot be easily tampered with or altered without detection.

  • Access Controls: Strict access controls, including role-based access control (RBAC) and multi-factor authentication (MFA), are enforced to ensure that only authorized personnel can access and manage the files.

  • Audit Logging: All operations, such as file uploads, downloads, and access events, are logged in a separate audit system. This provides a comprehensive trail of actions taken on files, helping to verify their integrity and authenticity.

  • Antivirus Protection: Files are automatically scanned for viruses and malware during upload and download. Any detected threats are immediately removed, ensuring the files remain secure and authentic, and do not pose a risk to the recipient.
