The Package Creator allows you to assemble a secure package that contains the information you want to share. Your files are automatically encrypted as they are added to the secure package along with any security settings you choose to define. Simply drag and drop files into the Package Creator, there’s no limit to the size or number of files that you can add to the secure package.
Switch Package Creator lets you define who has access to your information. You grant access to the package you’ve assembled by adding recipients just like you would with an email, however unlike an email you can add or remove recipients to the secure package at anytime – even after its been sent! Switch will manage the contacts you exchange secure information with using its own address book as well as allowing you to import from your existing email address book at any time.
Use Egress Switch to set limitations on how your information is accessed by recipients. Set the date and time when the package can first be accessed by the recipient. Set a second date and time when the package becomes locked to further access. These limitations set a window in time when your information can be viewed and used. Even an authorized recipient can’t open the secure package outside of this time window. This is a useful way to distribute information in advance of a release date.
If you share information frequently, you’ll probably want to keep track of the information you’ve sent out. The Package Creator lets you enter a Name and Description for the package you’re assembling, while tagging is a smart way to assign keywords to a package to help you classify or search for it at a later date.
