Security Considerations

Files uploaded through this service are publicly accessible without authentication. Do not upload sensitive or confidential information. The service performs the following security measures:
  • File content scanning for malware
  • File type validation to prevent malicious file uploads
  • Randomized filenames to prevent guessing
  • CDN integration for distributed content delivery

​
Implementation Notes

  • Files are stored in a cloud storage bucket
  • Public URLs are generated automatically upon successful upload
  • Files may be cached by CDN for faster delivery
  • There are no automatic expiration policies for uploaded files
  • To remove a file, contact your system administrator
