Share from Google Drive with Voltn
Voltn (formerly NetExplorer) adds a layer of security to your Google Drive shares: protected links, control after sending, and full traceability. Without changing your work habits.
Protected links, control after sending
Compatible with Google Workspace
Why secure your Google Drive shares?
Google Drive excels for internal collaboration. It is when sharing externally that control diminishes.
Links can be forwarded without limits
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, obsolete 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.

The Google Drive connector: what are the use cases?
External sharing of sensitive documents
Contracts, payslips, financial data: HR, legal, or finance teams share documents that must not circulate freely. The connector protects every send with a password and expiration date.
Correcting a sent item
Wrong recipient, outdated version, or a share that needs to be closed at the end of a project: the link can be modified or deactivated at any time, even after it has been sent.
Tracking contractual exchanges
Quotes, contracts, official documents: knowing if a document has been downloaded, and when, is part of the exchange. Notifications and history provide the proof.
