File Sharing Dropbox for .stl files

[TMorsePhillips]

We need to set up a dropbox for our clients to drop their .stl files to us. Does anyone have recommendations? Interested to see what everyone is using? thanks!!!

Dropbox, but your limited to a certain size without upgrading.

I use wetransfer quite often here at Whip Mix. It's free and gives the sender confirmation that the receiver has downloaded it.

There is no hipaa compliance police enforcing this yet, but sending patient info over the net in a non secured/encrypted on both ends is a violation of hippa.

You must have been reading my mind, as I was going to ask that question. Thanks for the info.

I think there is a standard for level of encryption, so I would research it.
Email hosts usually have a limit to file size that can be sent. Some of the files we send and receive for implant planning etc.,
can easily exceed 500MB+ in zipped format. An implant library for my planning software is 5GB compressed for example.
I know there are some encrypted FTP services available. You definitely want to find a service that allows you to keep all of the files
together rather than sending a string of emails and trying to keep track of what goes with which patient case.
