SecureSend is a file sharing service which allows you to securely send large files. When an unregistered external user receives secure files using Princeton University's SecureSend service, the recipient will receive an email indicating that the files are available. The email will contain a “Access message” link, which acts as both a registration link and a link to the SecureSend message containing the files. External users/non-Princeton recipients will need to register for a SecureSend account before logging in to the service for the first time.
Please note that SecureSend files are available for 7 days, after which they will automatically expire.
For additional information on SecureSend, please see the following knowledge base article: KB0012407
