Overview

Secure Share gives users the power of file-sharing without sacrificing on security. Users can control all aspects of the file sharing using Secure Share settings and configurations to provide access control measures.

Secure Share provides the following functionalities:

Ease of Use

  • An app-embeddable React MUI component library
  • Upload files directly to the Pangea service
  • Generate a password-protected share-link to send to an email contact list
  • Share the link in-app via email or text
  • Share-link authentication and Share access pages are fully hosted

File Safety

  • All files are scanned for malware prior to being uploaded
  • Files encrypted in transit, and at rest
  • Malware files are blocked from being uploaded
  • Configure file types and size restrictions

Share Link Security

  • Must provide the information (email/phone number/password) that the link was created for
  • Email and phone number share links must then receive and input an OTP

Access Security and Monitoring

  • Monitor share views
  • Limit the number of views of shares
  • Set expiration date for the share
  • Set Log General Activities to view file upload/download/delete/access activities in the logs.
  • Set Log Share Activities to view share link creation/deletion/sending/access activities

Authentication Security

Bring Your Own Bucket

  • Configure Secure Share to use your AWS S3 or CloudFlare R2 storage
  • Configure multiple storage buckets (API parameter identifies which bucket to use in an API call)
  • Set the default bucket for ease of use when utilizing multiple buckets

Branding

The following items can be branded by your organization's settings:

  • Share-link authentication pages
  • Share access pages
  • Entire interface: Create your own interface using the Secure Share APIs

Pangea Vault encryption adds an additional encryption layer above the cloud storage provider-based encryption, creating an even more secure storage solution.

Secure Share also simplifies storage by implementing drag and drop uploading, folder-based organization, simple file browsing, and searchability.

Embedding Secure Share into existing applications is also available through the Secure Share APIs to provide file integration, document exchange, and file management: all from inside your application.
