Add an extra layer of passive security over your email list by using access control in CloudFiles.
CloudFiles is an Integration first document sharing tool that helps you retain control of your files even after it is shared with your document recipients.
Email authentication is a great way to ensure that your files reach the right hands. With email authentication you can create a list of email ids, that can or cannot access your documents. Along with this you can also block access to email ids from a specific domain for eg. you can block every user using gmail.com domain from accessing your documents.
