How to Review the Security of a Business File Sharing Link

A file sharing link can expose business information beyond the intended recipients if it is public, long-lived, or forwarded. The original sender may not know who accessed it.

What to check

Check link scope, expiry, download and forwarding permissions, recipient verification, audit history, and whether sensitive information is included. Confirm the sharing platform is approved.

Recommended next step

Use named recipients or a time-limited protected link and remove access when it is no longer needed. Informatix Systems can assess cybersecurity and cloud access controls.
