Internxt is an open-source, European cloud storage provider offering a VPN and Antivirus with its private cloud storage solution, Internxt Drive.
Drive is a private alternative to Google. It is the first cloud storage service to use post-quantum cryptography with zero-knowledge encryption, the most secure and advanced way to ensure the privacy of your files.
It offers 1GB of free storage, or you can choose from its affordable subscription or lifetime plans.
It also offers Internxt Send, a free alternative to file-sharing services like WeTransfer and Firefox Send (discontinued). With this service, you can send up to 5GB of files for free without limitations, so you can use this service as much as you want.
Internxt Send: A Secure File Sharing Service
You can upload your files to Internxt Send without signing up for an account, and the recipient does not need an account either. The upload limit is 5GB; it can’t be increased, but it’s enough for:
~40 minutes of HD video
~8–10 minutes of 4K video
1,000 to 2,500 photos
Once uploaded, you can send the files via email or create a link. The files are encrypted directly on your device before being sent over the internet to ensure they remain private and secure against hackers or unauthorized access.
Interestingly, it also lets you add custom text to the email you send with the file uploaded.
The link remains active for 15 days from the date of creation.
If you want to upload files larger than 5 GB or if you want advanced file sharing,
you can create a free Internxt account to access Drive and a free VPN for one location (France). From your Drive account, you can share files via an encrypted link or email.
Drive also offers more privacy controls when sharing files, including password protection and public or restricted settings. You can also control access to your shared files anytime to further protect their privacy.
So, if you need a free service to send files, Internxt’s encrypted Send is a useful tool. If you need further privacy and controls over your shared files, you can use Internxt Drive, which also includes VPN and Antivirus in its subscription and lifetime plans, which you can get for 80% off using code ITSFOSS80.
