The popularity of freelancing has continued to rise in the United States. In fact, a majority of organizations in America have worked with freelancers and plan to hire them again, according to data from the LinkedIn Workforce Report. In the post-pandemic world, there are a massive and growing number of digital nomads, people who choose to travel while working remotely from anywhere in the Internet-connected world.
However, there are many security risks associated with working with third parties outside of your organization.
In addition to freelancers, many organizations often work with clients, vendors, suppliers, distributors and other parties outside of their internal team. Working with people outside of your company expands your attack surface—creating more opportunities for a cybercriminal to take advantage of. Businesses must consider implementing additional cybersecurity practices when exchanging information with third parties.
Fortunately, Keeper has a solution for sharing information with third-party contractors and other external parties.
One-Time Share is Keeper’s answer to secure sharing with third parties. One-Time Share allows organizations to share records with external users without requiring them to create a Keeper account.
This time-based sharing method is the most secure way to deliver sensitive information to a freelancer, client, vendor or any other third party, without exposing information through other communication methods such as email or text messaging.
One-Time Share offers time-limited sharing, making it easier for organizations to share with contractors while ensuring that the information is only available to the recipient for a restricted amount of time.
The sender has complete control over share links and their expiration date. Additionally, recipients can only access links on one device. This means that only the recipient can access the shared data. Other third parties cannot gain access to the shared link.
One-time sharing can be performed through a QR code, Airdrop, email, SMS or other out-of-band channels. This time-restricted sharing feature allows teams to:

Freelance work is work performed by a third-party external to a company. Often known as a freelancer or contractor, this temporary worker tends to be hired by a company on a part-time basis to conduct work for a specific client or project. Although freelancers may work with a particular company on an ongoing basis, freelancers are self-employed.
Sharing data with freelancers may be necessary if a freelancer requires specific information or files to do their job. Keeper One-Time Share offers a secure way to share information with third parties.
