Share from Google Drive using Voltn

Voltn (formerly NetExplorer) adds a layer of security to your Google Drive shares: protected links, post-send control, and full traceability. Without changing how you work.

Protected links, control after sending

Compatible with Google Workspace

Why secure your Google Drive shares?

Google Drive excels at internal collaboration. It is when sharing externally that control diminishes.

Links can be forwarded indefinitely

Once distributed, a sharing link can be forwarded to anyone. You no longer choose who accesses the document.

Regaining control after sending is difficult

Wrong recipient, outdated document, sharing to be closed: once the link is sent, options are limited.

No visibility on access

Viewed? Downloaded? By whom, when? For contractual or sensitive exchanges, a lack of answers is a problem.

Unmet compliance requirements

GDPR, sensitive data, regulated sectors: some exchanges require hosting in France and guarantees that standard sharing does not provide.
