What makes a handoff secure
A secure handoff should protect the file before upload, identify the recipient path, limit the access window, avoid unnecessary metadata, and record lifecycle events.
Document handoff
Secure document handoffs for small teams
A secure document handoff is a narrow delivery workflow for sensitive files that need to reach the right person without becoming a permanent inbox attachment.
Use cases
Secure handoffs fit contracts, signed forms, onboarding documents, client reports, financial exports, legal packets, investor materials, incident logs, and security evidence.
How ZipPigeon fits
ZipPigeon gives teams a focused delivery flow with browser encryption, encrypted storage, account-bound sharing, secure links, expiration, cancellation, archive, and audit events.
When to use a workspace instead
Use a shared workspace for ongoing collaboration. Use a secure document handoff when the task is a specific delivery with a natural end.
Frequently asked questions
What makes ZipPigeon useful for secure document handoff?
ZipPigeon is useful when a sensitive file needs to reach a specific person without becoming an email attachment or a standing shared-folder permission.
Can ZipPigeon read my file contents?
The normal delivery model is designed so stored file data is encrypted and raw file keys are not sent to the server. Operational metadata is still processed.
What metadata is still processed?
Operational metadata such as account information, recipient information, timestamps, file size, delivery state, and audit events may be processed.
Send the file. Keep control of the link.
