LiquidFiles Secure File Share

What is LiquidFiles Secure File Share?

LiquidFiles should be used any time you need to transmit university private and restricted data (including personal information).

Senders add these files to the secure server to be stored. The recipient would then receive an email from the sender's name with a link to the files for access.
