This opens up a world of new possibilities to accelerate collaboration for teams and organizations. See just what’s possible by exploring these 31 ways that Secure Share can increase efficiency and security while supporting your business success.
Virtru Secure Share for Business Leaders: Collect Secure Paperwork and Proposals
- Secure forms that need to be submitted. Use Secure Share to collect forms or paperwork containing sensitive information. Just put your personal Secure Share link on your website and allow customers, partners, or vendors to submit their data securely. You'll receive a notification when a file or message has been shared with you.
- Collect proposals from multiple vendors in response to an RFP.
- Protect intellectual property shared with a third party, such as industry forecasts, product ideas, or creative for upcoming releases. Revoke shared information at any time you choose, like as when your contract is up.
- Exchange sensitive documents with board members or investors, such as information related to mergers and acquisitions, or quarterly performance reports.
- Exchange files too large for email: Secure Share supports file sizes of over 15 GB, and sometimes even larger.
For Customer Success and IT Teams: Streamline and Secure Client Communications
- Integrate with Zendesk for customer support interactions: Virtru Secure Share integrates directly with Zendesk, allowing you to automate the secure sharing of sensitive information, such as medical records, account passwords, API tokens, and other files you need to protect.
- Securely collaborate with customers and business partners with a platform-agnostic data sharing solution that works in any browser
- Integrate with Confluence for engineering and development teams: From IT teams to developers and engineers, Confluence is a core application for cross-functional collaboration. But, the problem with Confluence is that anyone who has access to a given space can access all the pages inside of it. However, Virtru Secure Share integrates seamlessly with Confluence to enable inline encryption on Confluence pages, so sensitive information can only be viewed by the right identities.
