Comparing fax and email security

[Lewis Yazmine]

Hello! I would like professional input on whether online faxing offers meaningful security benefits compared to email for exchanging confidential documents.

Hello! During my research, I reviewed information presented here: https://www.itsecurityguru.org/2025/01/22/is-online-fax-secure-everything-you-need-to-know/ It is explained that online fax solutions use encrypted transmission and secure storage to protect data. The page also emphasizes access control and delivery verification, which are often missing in standard email. However, that security is not automatic and depends on the service provider and how received documents are managed.
