Secure File Sharing

Share files with external partners securely through managed SFTP. Per-user access controls, full audit logging, and virtual directories keep your data protected.

Secure File Sharing

The problem

Sharing files with partners is insecure and manual

Email attachments hit size limits and lack encryption. Consumer file sharing tools do not meet enterprise security requirements. Setting up one-off SFTP accounts is slow and hard to manage. Without centralized controls, you lose visibility into who accessed what and when.

The solution

Managed SFTP with granular access controls

FilePulse gives each partner their own SFTP credentials with access scoped to exactly the directories they need. All file operations are logged, and you manage everything from a single dashboard.

  • Per-user directory isolation with virtual filesystems
  • SSH key and password authentication options
  • IP allowlists to restrict partner access by location
  • Comprehensive audit trail for every file operation
  • Multiple storage backends for data segregation
  • Web dashboard for easy partner account management
  • Encrypted transfers with full audit trail for every operation

How it works

Start sharing files securely

1

Set up your workspace

Create a FilePulse account and connect your cloud storage. Define directory structures for each partner or project.

2

Invite your partners

Create SFTP accounts for each partner with access scoped to their designated directories. Share connection details securely.

3

Monitor and manage

Track all file activity from the web dashboard. Review audit logs, manage permissions, and adjust access as partnerships evolve.

Partner onboarding in minutes

Create a new user, assign their directory scope, and share credentials. Partners connect with any standard SFTP client.

Isolated access per partner

Each partner sees only their designated directories. Virtual filesystem mapping keeps data separated without duplicating storage.

Full audit trail

Every upload, download, and directory listing is logged with user details and timestamps. Export logs for reporting or auditing.

Encrypted transfers

All data is encrypted in transit via SSH. No cleartext transmissions, no insecure fallbacks. Partners connect over SFTP with strong cipher suites.

Flexible storage backends

Route partner data to dedicated S3 buckets, GCS buckets, or Azure containers. Keep partner data segregated at the storage layer.

Centralized management

Manage all partner accounts, access policies, and storage mappings from a single web interface. No SSH access to servers required.
