The downside of everything being digitized, however, is a growing concern about the security of confidential files.<\/p>\n<p>With stories of hacking scandals increasingly making headlines, the need to find a safe way to share files is greater than ever. While lawyers and law firms have long been wedded to email as their preferred means for sharing and circulating documents, the fact of the matter is that email attachments just don\u2019t afford the level of security you need to <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2nEvnR0\">protect your clients\u2019 sensitive information<\/a> and comply with your <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2na8isN\">ethical requirements<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s where client portals come in. Unlike email attachments, client portals incorporate sophisticated encryption mechanisms that allow your documents to exist online without fear of them being accessed by people who shouldn\u2019t be accessing them.<\/p>\n<p>Combine the security of client portals with Citrix\u2019s commitment to developing cloud solutions that truly work for small businesses and you get <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2mNSgUr\">ShareFile<\/a>, Citrix\u2019s secure file sharing service. ShareFile features an intuitive client document portal that helps the busy lawyer meet the demands of today\u2019s mobile working world without risking client security.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cloud-Based Sharing That\u2019s Easy to Use<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s be honest \u2013 the legal profession has never been known for being particularly tech-savvy. While that\u2019s slowly changing with every new class of junior associates, the fact remains that many experienced attorneys are resistant to learning new technology. The same can be said for certain clients. For better or for worse, though, technology is an undeniable part of practicing law these days. The key is to find products that make incorporating technology easy, and ShareFile does just that.<\/p>\n<p>For some, the idea of learning new software and switching from email to a client portal for document delivery may sound daunting. The good news is that ShareFile couldn\u2019t be easier to use. Incorporating simple functionality and an intuitive, user-friendly interface, ShareFile creates a familiar and secure place where you, your employees, and your clients can access all of your relevant documents with a simple click.<\/p>\n<p>Every user gets a secure, unique login. ShareFile imposes no limitations on your ability to host and share data \u2013 you can give access to as many people as you want and business plans feature unlimited storage. We all know that for lawyers with demanding caseloads and lengthy client rosters, limits just don\u2019t work.<\/p>\n<p>And with a client portal, you no longer need to worry about miscommunications or missing attachments. Emailing documents opens the door to too many potential errors, from sending documents to the wrong person, to people deleting emails and attachments, to clients inadvertently reviewing old and outdated drafts of documents. ShareFile eliminates all of that.<\/p>\n<p>ShareFile\u2019s client portal is accessed with a simple click and a login prompt. There\u2019s no concern that your client might be accessing the wrong document, as they\u2019re linked to exactly what you want them to see. You fully control what they have access to and can ensure that they\u2019re always getting the most up-to-date version of whatever you\u2019re discussing. There are no clunky downloads or plugins to deal with \u2013 file sharing is as easy as a simple drag and drop, and downloads happen with a single click. Simply put, ShareFile couldn\u2019t make secure file sharing any easier. There are even specialists on hand to help you customize your settings to meet your individual preferences.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Setting a New Standard for Accessibility<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Law has always been a demanding profession. And while technology has undoubtedly made our lives easier, it has also placed a host of new pressures and demands on attorneys. With the explosion of portable devices, the expectation that lawyers will be available at all times has increased exponentially.<\/p>\n<p>In today\u2019s world, accessibility is one of the most critical features of any technology, and ShareFile delivers. The folks at Citrix have long understood that lawyers rarely have the luxury of truly disconnecting, and ShareFile is the latest way they\u2019re making that reality easier to bear.<\/p>\n<p>Your client portal is never more than a click away \u2013 if you have Internet access, you have access to ShareFile. So, whether you\u2019re traveling with your laptop or checking client emails from your phone while on vacation (because we all know you will), you\u2019ll have uninterrupted access to your files, anytime, anywhere. The beauty of cloud-based storage is that it goes with you wherever you go. And ShareFile\u2019s secure apps make it even easier to take the office with you when you go.<\/p>\n<p>ShareFile takes the stress out secure document sharing, so that you can focus on what matters most, serving your clients.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p class=\"summary\">With hacking scandals increasingly making headlines, the need to find a safe way to share files is greater than ever.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":962,"featured_media":456511,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[18,11],"tags":[1554,153,1555,154,155,13,1556,1557,1558,356,7],"class_list":["post-1302","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sponsored-content","category-technology","tag-citrix","tag-cloud","tag-cloud-based-sharing","tag-cloud-computing","tag-cloud-technology","tag-cloud-based-services","tag-confidential-files","tag-file-sharing","tag-sharefile","tag-stephanie-wilkins","tag-technology"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.3 -
