Hello! When selecting tools for secure document exchange, I want to understand whether online fax platforms provide sufficient protection and governance for professional and regulated use.

Hello! I explored this topic after reading an analysis on ITsecurityguru, and the article https://www.itsecurityguru.org/2025/01/22/is-online-fax-secure-everything-you-need-to-know/ explains the main security benefits of online faxing. According to the page, encryption, authentication controls, and audit logs make fax services appealing where traceability matters. It also explains why fax is still accepted in compliance-heavy industries. That said, the article stresses that organizations should not assume full end-to-end security and must assess how providers manage access, storage, and final delivery.
