With this connector, your files are no longer sent directly via email but through a secure download link. This offers several advantages:

- securing data exchanges (controlled access, expiration, traceability)

What is a secure alternative to Outlook attachments?
The best alternative to Outlook attachments is to use a secure sharing link via a dedicated platform such as NetExplorer.
Unlike traditional attachments, this solution allows you to:

- carefully control who has access to the documents
- track downloads in real time
- set security rules (password, expiration, single sign-on)
This approach is particularly recommended for companies that handle sensitive data or are subject to compliance requirements (GDPR, ISO 27001).
How can I send a large file via Outlook without any size limits?
