Evaluate the risk of file-sharing sites

File-sharing sites can be a useful way to share documents with external parties. However, there are inherent risks that need to be evaluated before allowing access to these sites:

• Can personal or sensitive data be shared over these sites?
• Can we protect our confidential files and/or intellectual property?
• Is there a risk of information leakage?
• Are these file-sharing sites properly protected against viruses, malware,...?
• Are there potential legal implications?
