AES-256, SSL/TLS, SSE-C encryption and 2FA: how TransferNow secures your transfers
TransferNow encrypts every transfer with SSL/TLS in transit and AES-256 at rest, offers SSE-C key-based encryption, two-factor authentication (2FA), systematic antivirus scanning, and regular security audits. All our features are designed for maximum security and privacy, every step of the way.
SSL/TLSAES-256
Data encryption
Your data is encrypted during transfer (SSL/TLS) and while stored (256-bit AES), within the most secure datacenters on the planet.
PentestingAudit
Rigorous security testing
From identifying vulnerabilities to regular penetration testing (pentesting), every risk is effectively minimized daily through our proactive approach.
PrivacyDesign
Privacy by design
Confidentiality is a priority built into the design of our file transfer solution from the start.
Our approach ensures that respecting your privacy is at the heart of our service, with advanced protection measures designed to secure your data from the first click.
SSE-CAES-256Passphrase
Server-side encryption of your files with SSE-C
Encrypt files stored on our servers with your own passphrase. Even we, as the administrators of TransferNow, cannot access your files.
We do not store your encryption key, and if it is lost, the files are then technically irrecoverable.
Password
Password protection
Protect access to your file transfers with a password to strengthen control over and access to your confidential documents.
We offer a transfer template to pre-configure all your transfers or those of your users. Enhance the security of your exchanges and increase productivity.
AntivirusScan
Antivirus security check and analysis
When you send or receive files with TransferNow, we carry out various security analyses thanks to our powerful algorithms.
We also perform an analysis with an antivirus solution to detect and remove malicious files upfront, thus preventing their spread and propagation.
180-day recovery (Premium+)
When a transfer expires, your files are deleted
When a transfer expires or is manually deleted, your files are removed from our secure cloud infrastructure. Premium accounts and higher can enable transfer recovery for up to 180 days; after that, deletion is permanent and irreversible.
No hidden retention: outside the recovery window, a deleted or expired transfer is permanently erased.
Security: frequently asked questions
How are my files protected during transfer?
Transfers are encrypted (SSL/TLS) all the way, files are scanned by an antivirus solution before being made available, and you can add a password shared through a separate channel.
Can I enable two-factor authentication (2FA)?
Yes: signing in to your account can be protected with 2FA via SMS or an authenticator app (Authy, Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator).
What is the SSE-C encryption offered by TransferNow?
With a paid plan, your files can be encrypted in storage with a key derived from a secret passphrase that only you know (SSE-C): without it, the files are unreadable, even for our teams.
What happens to my files after expiration?
Upon expiration or deletion, they are removed from our servers. Premium accounts and higher can recover them for up to 180 days; after that, deletion is permanent and irreversible.
Is TransferNow GDPR compliant?
Yes: a European solution, a choice of EU hosting, encryption, antivirus scanning, and a data processing agreement (DPA) for professionals.
