UTSend
Overview and Key Features:
UTsend is a secure file transfer service used for sharing content, including Level 4 data, with internal or external users. All files are encrypted, authenticated, and virus-scanned.
University members can upload files and send file request links through UTsend. Email (e.g., Microsoft Outlook) may be used for general communication but it is not encrypted and should not be used for sharing or storing L4 data. Recipients will receive UTsend notifications via email but all file transfers will occur through the UTsend website.
Use UTsend to send or receive confidential and sensitive (L4) data which can include, but is not limited to:
- Social Insurance Numbers
- Banking Information
- Medical and Health Records
- Insurance provider information
- Payroll and Tax forms
- Usernames and passwords
- Any personal identifiable data (PII)
Getting Started:
UTSend can be accessed using your UTORID at: https://send.utoronto.ca/
You can send a file to someone via UTSend by “dropping off” that file into the application. Downloading a file that someone else has sent to you is referred to as a file “pick up”.
UTSend hosts files for 14 days so this service is not suitable for long-term storage. Please keep a downloaded copy of any files transmitted via UTsend in another appropriate location for your own records.
