That can make a big difference, particularly when sending large files. In addition to bringing security benefits, said Ahmed, direct transfers are faster than the alternative because the upload and download process are happening simultaneously. “We let users create a direct connection between the sending party and the receiving party, then we transfer their files securely.” “We move data and information directly between two devices without storing anything in a third-party system,” said founder and CEO Imran Ahmed.
