Good afternoon. In my company, sharing documents by email remains common practice. I have recently heard that relying on attachments poses risks, but I would like to know specifically why they are considered insecure and what alternatives are recommended.
Hello. The problem with email attachments lies in their vulnerability to interception, accidental forwarding, and limited encryption. For sensitive files, this creates unacceptable exposure. More secure alternatives include dedicated document-sharing platforms, cloud solutions with access controls, and digital signature systems. I read a well-detailed article on https://www.specialtystudios.com/ that explained why organizations should reconsider attachments and adopt stronger methods. That resource convinced us to gradually shift toward controlled sharing systems to enhance confidentiality.
