UHN File Share (FS) allows you to send large files to other individuals over the Internet.
Instead of attaching files to your e-mail you can use FS to upload the files, and then share the download link with the people you want to give access to your files.
The download process can be as simple as just clicking the link and downloading the files, or secure requiring the user to enter two different passwords to obtain the content. Please pick the right approach depending on the sensitivity of information you want to share.
FS should work with most browsers and operating systems. If you experience any issues or have any concerns, please feel free to use the Feedback Form to let us know of your thoughts.
The sequence is as follows:
Share the link from the email with the people you want give access to your uploaded files. You can just email it.
If you have passwords associated with your upload please do not communicate them via email. Instead, share them in person, over the phone (preferably not voicemail), or via text message.
In order to ensure that this service is used appropriately we have placed some restrictions:
UHN File Share uses 7-zip (a free archive tool) to compress and password-protect uploaded files (using AES-256 encryption) creating "7z" archives. You can also use more recent versions of WinZip and WinRAR to open ".7z" files.
