ARMY SECURE SITE TO POST FILES WITH PII

For those who are currently sending files password protected vice encrypted because the recipient (like DFAS) cannot open encrypted files, you can post documents (with or without PII) from the link at the bottom.  From the homepage click the second link (I have a CAC Card).  Fill out your information; give a description of the file; click the "browse" button to select the file from your computer.  Under the "Manually Enter Email" type entire email (john.doe@navy.mil) and "Add".  You can check the require CAC card if you desire but the site is secure without this feature.  The recipient will receive an email from "No-Reply@amrdec.army.mil"/Subj: AMRDEC Safe Access File Exchange Delivery Notice - you might want to give recipient's a heads-up so they don't think it's spam.  The email from the site will give the recipient a link and password to access the file (all passwords will be different).  They can copy and paste the password to access the file.  If you have any questions, please let me know.  V/r, Pam
