Simply Send

Encrypted delivery for files and messages. Passkey-first. Hosted in your estate. Audit-ready.

Simply Send lets you send any file, any size, to anyone securely - without consumer transfer tools, uncontrolled cloud sharing links, or email attachments with no evidence trail. It gives you passkey-first recipient authentication, per-file encryption keyed to your Azure Key Vault, full audit trails, and custom branding, all deployed inside your environment.

  • Your data never touches our servers.
  • Your keys never leave your vault.

The Problem

Large file delivery usually gets solved with whatever is available fastest, and that usually creates a security, privacy, or governance problem somewhere else.

We need to send a 2GB file to outside counsel. Email will not handle it. Consumer transfer tools are not compliant. External sharing via our document platform is a governance nightmare. And we need to prove the file was delivered and accessed.

You have probably already solved large file delivery with something, and that something is most likely creating compliance problems. Consumer transfer services store your files on their servers. Ad-hoc external sharing via your document platform requires guest accounts, generates sprawl, and produces no meaningful audit trail. Email attachments leave no evidence of receipt. Consumer tools offer no identity verification.

If you work in legal, compliance, HR, finance, or a regulated environment, none of that is acceptable. When you send a DSAR response, a legal bundle, or a due diligence pack, you need to know who received it, when they opened it, how many times they downloaded it, and that it has not been forwarded beyond the intended recipient.

Simply Send handles this without asking recipients to create accounts, install applications, or navigate a portal. One encrypted link. One authentication step. One audit record.

What It Does

Simply Send is designed to replace uncontrolled outbound file sharing and insecure inbound document exchange with a delivery layer you actually control.

Capability What it does Why it matters
Passkey-first authentication Recipients verify identity via device-native passkey (WebAuthn/FIDO2). Rate-limited OTP fallback when enabled. Real identity verification, not just a link anyone could forward.
Per-file encryption Each file and message gets its own AES-256-GCM key, wrapped by your Azure Key Vault. Your keys never leave your vault. Encryption you control. If you revoke the key, access is gone.
Host-locked, time-bound links Links are pinned to your verified domain. They expire, have download limits, and can be revoked instantly. No link reuse, no forwarding loopholes, and no open-ended exposure.
Resumable large file delivery Chunked encryption with byte-range downloads via TUS protocol. Connection drops resume rather than restart. Multi-GB files delivered reliably, with progress tracking throughout.
Secure intake portal External parties submit documents to you via an authenticated submission portal. Optional IP/CIDR allowlisting. Replaces unsecured email attachments for inbound sensitive documents.
Custom branding Your logo, colours, domain, and email templates. Recipients see your brand, not ours. Trust signals matter, especially for DSAR responses and legal bundles.
Outlook add-in Send securely from Outlook with one click. No context switching and no separate application. Adoption is instant. No workflow change required for your team.
Full audit trail Every open, authentication, download, reply, upload, and revocation is logged with timestamp, IP, and actor. Prove delivery for regulatory purposes and answer audit questions in seconds.
Two-way secure replies Optional reply and upload permissions per link. External parties respond securely without creating accounts. Replaces insecure email back-and-forth with outside counsel, regulators, or counterparties.
Admin read-only audit sessions Time-limited audit access for compliance review. Replies, uploads, and downloads blocked during audit mode. Defensible oversight without disrupting delivery.

How It Works

Simply Send keeps the workflow simple for the sender and lightweight for the recipient, while preserving control, auditability, and delivery resilience for the organisation.

  1. Step 1 - SendDrop files or paste a message. Set expiry date, download limit, and reply permissions. Click send. The Outlook add-in integrates this into your existing workflow.
  2. Step 2 - VerifyThe recipient receives a branded link on your verified domain. They authenticate via passkey on their device or, where enabled, via a short-lived OTP. No account, no portal login, and no unnecessary friction.
  3. Step 3 - DeliverContent decrypts on the fly using keys held in your Azure Key Vault. Downloads are range-enabled and resumable for large files. Every action is logged. Replies stay encrypted and audited.

Simply Send vs. the Alternatives

Most teams already have a way to send files. The problem is that the usual options either break at scale, push your data into someone else's cloud, or leave you with no defensible delivery record.

Security Architecture

Simply Send is designed for regulated environments where the question is never whether encryption exists, but whether you control the keys.

Licensing

Feature code What it covers Typical entry point
LFS (core) Encrypted outbound sharing: files, messages, passkey auth, audit trail, branding, Outlook add-in, and admin controls. The right entry point if your team shares sensitive files externally.
LFS Intake Secure inbound submission portal with IP/CIDR allowlisting and admin review workflow. Teams receiving sensitive documents from external parties across legal, HR, privacy, or compliance.

Simply Send is available as a standalone module or as part of a multi-module bundle. Once your data is on the Simply Discover platform, Simply Send can be activated as a delivery layer for DSAR responses, eDiscovery exports, and compliance outputs without a new project or additional implementation.

Where Simply Send Sits in the Platform

Simply Send is not a standalone file transfer product. It is the secure delivery layer of the Simply Discover platform.

The same data model, the same audit trail, and the same encryption architecture. Simply Send becomes the last mile of every investigation, compliance response, and data request, not a separate product bolted on at the end.

Simply Send FAQs

Straight answers to the questions security, privacy, legal, and infrastructure teams ask before they approve secure delivery.

Do recipients need an account?

No. Recipients authenticate via passkey on their device, or via a short-lived OTP where that fallback is enabled. No portal registration, no passwords, and no app to install.

Where does the data live?

In your Azure environment. Simply Discover never holds your files or messages. Encryption keys are managed by your Azure Key Vault.

Can we revoke access immediately?

Yes. Links can be revoked by token, by link ID, or in bulk per thread. Access is shut down instantly.

Is this defensible in a regulatory context?

Yes. Audit events cover link creation, opens, authentication, downloads including bytes served, replies, uploads, and revocations with IP, timestamp, and actor identity where available. Admins can run read-only audit sessions with a time-limited window.

How does the Outlook add-in work?

The add-in appears in the Outlook compose toolbar. Senders select files, set expiry and access limits, and send. Recipients receive a branded encrypted link without any workflow change for the sender.

Can external parties send documents to us securely?

Yes. Secure Intake provides an authenticated public portal for inbound submissions. Submissions are reviewed and approved by admins before entering your workspace.

What file size is supported?

Multi-GB files are supported. Uploads use the TUS protocol for resumable transfers, and downloads are range-enabled so large files can be resumed if the connection drops.

Is Simply Send GDPR-compliant for DSAR delivery?

Simply Send is designed specifically to provide the encrypted, auditable delivery chain required for DSAR responses. Branded communication, identity-verified delivery, and a complete access log are included as standard.
