Abstract

The secure management of attachments is described. In one example, files are identified for attachment to a message through a secure content application extension. Rather than directly attaching the files to the message, a resource locator or link to the files is generated, and the resource locator is inserted into the message. The message is then forwarded for distribution to client devices based on an addressee list for the message. The distribution of and access to the files is managed separately by a management service. The management service can notify the client devices to retrieve the files based on a file access schedule. At each of the client devices, users can access the files through a secure content file application extension using the resource locator during the file access schedule. Thus, the files are distributed through secure content file applications and not as direct attachments to messages.
