Support ISO 27001 compliance with secure file sharing that prioritises data security. My MX Data integrates encryption, access controls, and audit logs.
Whether handling client contracts or confidential research, our platform helps ensure your security policies are applied consistently.
As trusted by leading automotive brands
Popular sharing tools can send your files but leave gaps in oversight. My MX Data closes those gaps, using full encryption, traceability and controlled access to protect both sender and recipient.
It performs strongly in Security & Compliance, File Control, Collaboration and Large Transfer Processes.
Encryption Designed for ISO 27001 – MX implements its ASR methodology to help businesses align with ISO 27001 security controls. ℹ️ What does this mean?ASR (Anonymise, Shard, Restore) breaks files into anonymised shards, transmits them over independent encrypted paths, and restores them only for authorised users, exceeding AES-256 safeguards.
Detailed Compliance Logs – Records each file event to support ISO audits and reviews.
Aligns with GDPR, UK DPA & ISO 27001 – Maintains secure storage and controlled access at all times.
WeTransfer does not encrypt stored files, creating a compliance gap for ISO-certified operations.
Google Drive and Dropbox may need policy adjustments to meet ISO standards fully.
Authorised Named User Access – Limits file transfers to known, approved users to safeguard compliance.
Selectable Hosting Regions – Store data in locations that match ISO requirements and organisational policy.
Essential File Controls – Upload, download, and monitor exchanges without running a complete DMS setup.
No Real-Time Mirroring – Transfers are deliberate and secure, not constantly updated across devices.
ISO-Aligned File Transfers – Share files using encryption and processes that align with recognised ISO standards.
Linked Messaging – Discuss details and updates inside the platform, ensuring every note remains tied to the relevant file.
Consistent Branded Access – Recipients use a portal that carries your approved branding and domain.
No Real-Time Co-Authoring – Prepare and finalise files before sending them through MX.
Transfer Any Size – Unlike Google Drive’s 750GB daily cap or WeTransfer’s free 2GB ceiling, MX supports unrestricted file sizes for compliant business operations.
ISO-Compliant File Intake – Provide a secure, branded portal for receiving important documents in line with ISO standards. Public consumer tools can’t offer the same assurance.
Not Designed for Archiving – MX facilitates fast, secure exchanges, not long-term cloud hosting like Dropbox or OneDrive.
ISO compliance is built on rigorous proof of data security. My MX Data achieves this through full-spectrum end-to-end encryption and complete audit logs for every file shared or received.
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
|
Quantum-Safe Encryption
|
Uses ASR plus AES-256 encryption to protect files end to end. This foundation supports organisations aiming for ISO-aligned data security.
|
|
Named Recipient Control
|
Grants access to specified, authorised users only. Tracking who accesses what creates a clear audit trail, essential for ISO documentation and internal validation.
|
|
ISO Compliance Support
|
Encryption, access control and audit logs are designed with ISO 27001 in mind. These features help organisations build a security posture that aligns with recognised standards.
|
|
Real-Time Activity Logs
|
Tracks uploads, downloads and accesses as they happen. These logs are handy during ISO audits or when demonstrating control over file handling processes.
|
|
Supports Large Transfers
|
Lets organisations send and store large files - archives, media, reports - without hitting arbitrary limits. Simplifies compliance workflows involving big datasets.
|
|
Secure Upload Portals
|
Offers encrypted or branded upload gateways - ideal for collecting sensitive inputs while maintaining chain-of-custody requirements.
|
|
Access Tracking
|
Logs who interacts with files and when. That clarity is valuable for internal reviews or external ISO assessments.
|
|
Multi-Factor Authentication
|
Adds a security layer by requiring verification beyond just a password. It helps meet access control benchmarks in ISO frameworks.
|
|
No Public File Links
|
Disables open URLs. Files remain accessible only to authorised users, aligning with the ISO principle of controlled access.
|
Using patented quantum encryption, My MX Data supports teams in achieving ISO compliance goals. Files remain private, fully auditable, and protected against uncontrolled distribution.
Facilitation, Not Certification: MX is built to support organisations seeking ISO 27001 certification by providing strict access controls, detailed audit trails, and quantum secure patented methodology for data transfers. However, compliance is always a shared responsibility. MX cannot issue ISO certification; it helps businesses demonstrate the technical controls required.
Helpful Features:
With 62% of organisations having an encryption strategy in place [Ponemon Institute], MX provides a clear technical foundation for those aiming to achieve or maintain ISO certification. Explore more in our Features.
Security-First Architecture: MX was designed to meet the expectations of frameworks like ISO 27001. It embeds core principles such as confidentiality, integrity, and availability into its file transfer model.
Alignment Examples:
For additional context, see our article on quantum-proof encryption and how it strengthens alignment with international frameworks.
Purpose-Built Exchange: Unlike Dropbox, Google Drive, or OneDrive, MX does not function as a storage repository. It is designed for controlled, auditable exchanges, making it far easier for organisations to show conformity with ISO standards.
Reduced Compliance Risks: Files do not linger online, which reduces the risk of data sprawl — a common weakness flagged during ISO audits.
Industry Recognition: MX is adopted in finance, healthcare, and technology, all sectors where ISO certification is critical. With 72% of tech firms and 64% of financial firms using enterprise-wide encryption [Statista], MX’s focus on encrypted exchange aligns with this broader adoption trend.
See practical enterprise use cases in our Case Studies.
Automated Record-Keeping: MX produces end-to-end audit logs of every file action. These logs capture details such as sender, recipient, timestamp, and access outcome, which can be exported and reviewed during audit preparation.
Streamlined Compliance Support: Instead of manual record collection, businesses can use MX’s reporting features to demonstrate that controls are applied consistently.
Given that 30% of European businesses remain non-compliant with GDPR [Moosend], leveraging MX’s structured logs can help avoid similar pitfalls during ISO audits. For practical insights, review our Features page.
Minimising Mis-Sends: ISO 27001 requires strict control over data exchange. MX enforces named-user access, meaning files can never be shared via open links or mistakenly sent to the wrong address.
Safeguards in Action:
With research showing that 46% of cyber breaches affect firms with fewer than 1,000 staff [StrongDM], error prevention becomes critical. MX offers businesses of every size a safety net against unintentional exposure.
Clear Incident Visibility: MX provides administrators with real-time access logs that highlight failed login attempts, blocked file access, and irregular sharing patterns. These reports form the basis of incident management evidence during ISO reviews.
Facilitated Reporting: Administrators can export these logs directly for use in incident reports or risk registers. This helps demonstrate compliance with ISO requirements for documented responses.
Ongoing Risk Reduction: By identifying anomalies early, MX assists businesses in containing risks quickly, which is vital given the average 258-day window to identify and contain a breach [TechTarget].
