Kiss your email attachments goodbye
Email attachments are becoming increasingly passe and that may open some security concerns.
Today, I gave the just launched Zoho Viewer a spin and liked it overall. I also happened to put it through a stress test uploading a 123 page CIA security assessment for the year 2020 (yes I have these things on my hard drive) for giggles to find that Zoho (related content) doesn't support attachments larger than 5 MB.
Woops.
I also found another little item: I have a lot of potential attachments I can't share that could be shared easily with a quick upload. In fact, I uploaded one report I shouldn't distribute. I stopped it in time.
The good news: Docs are way easy to share with Zoho and other services like Scribd.
The bad news: It's easier than ever to post an internal document. And since it's not an attachment it will be difficult to stop at the email server. If I'm a chief security officer I may be a bit worried about document leakage.
Zoho has a demonstration video and here's a screen on how to embed a document.
