Three powerful features, each designed to keep your sensitive client data safe. Here's exactly how to use them.
Share sensitive documents with clients and colleagues β encrypted end-to-end, virus-scanned, and automatically shredded when you decide.
Sign in at filewalla.ca with your email and password. If you have two-factor authentication enabled, enter your Google Authenticator code.
Select the file from your computer. FileWalla automatically scans it for viruses using multi-tier scanning (ClamAV + phpMussel) before encrypting it with AES-256 encryption.
Select an existing FileWalla member, or enter an email address to share with a client via the Guest Portal. Non-members get a secure link β no account required.
Choose how long the file stays available (1 day to 30 days). After expiry, the file is automatically shredded β deleted permanently with no recovery possible. Your recipient gets a notification with a secure download link.
See when your file was downloaded, by whom, and verify the integrity checksum. Your full audit trail is preserved for compliance.
Send a self-destructing message or file to anyone β even non-members. The data shreds itself after viewing. No trace left behind.
Click the Read & Burn option from your FileWalla dashboard. This opens the secure ephemeral messaging tool.
Type your confidential message and create a mandatory passphrase. You can also attach a file. The passphrase is required β share it with your recipient by phone or text, never by email.
Choose how many times the message can be viewed (1β5 views) and how long it stays alive (1 hour to 7 days). After either limit is reached, the message self-destructs.
FileWalla generates a unique one-time URL. Send this link to your recipient by email, text, or chat. They'll need the passphrase you set to unlock and read the message.
Once the view limit is reached or the expiry time passes, the message and any attachments are permanently destroyed. There's no way to recover them β for you, your recipient, or anyone else.
Give your clients a simple, secure way to send you files β without needing their own FileWalla account.
From your FileWalla dashboard, click the Client Portal section. This is where you create secure upload links for your clients.
Enter your client's name and email. FileWalla generates a unique, secure portal URL specifically for that client.
Send your client their portal link by email. They can bookmark it for repeat use. No account creation, no passwords β just a secure upload point.
Your client visits the link, drags and drops their files, and submits. Every file is automatically virus-scanned and encrypted before it reaches your account.
Portal uploads appear in your dashboard with the client's name clearly labeled. Download, review, and manage everything from one place.
Create your account and start sharing securely in minutes. Free trial included β no credit card required.
Visit filewalla.ca and click "Get Started Free." Enter your name, email, and create a password. You'll receive a confirmation email.
Click the verification link in your welcome email. This confirms your account and activates your free trial period.
For maximum security, enable 2FA using Google Authenticator. Go to your Profile settings and scan the QR code with the Authenticator app on your phone.
From your dashboard, invite a colleague or set up a Client Portal link. They'll be able to securely exchange files with you immediately.
Your free trial gives you full access. When you're ready, upgrade to a paid plan for more storage, longer file retention, and advanced features. Plans start at just a few dollars per month.
