Secure File UploadDirect to Simon McAllister |
Use this simple, private & secure method when you need to send a file directly to my internal storage.
Request a PIN via Email. It will be automatically sent to you by reply, will be valid for 1 hour and can be entered from any device to start your upload. For added security, and to upload multiple files at once, zip & encrypt your file(s) with a password before uploading, and send me the password separately. |
