Secure external portals for scientific content sharing
Share your science without losing control of it.
Some of the people who need your scientific content don’t work for you. External portals give KOLs, advisory boards, consultants, and other outside experts secure access to exactly the content they should see, by login or secure link, without making them full users.
The problem
Sharing outside the organization is where control slips
Emailing decks to outside experts means losing track of who has what, which version they received, and whether their access should still be open months later.
- Decks emailed and forgotten
- No idea who has what
- Wrong version in outside hands
- Access that never gets revoked
Who it’s for
Controlled access for the experts outside your team
External scientific consultants
Give outside experts access to exactly the content they need to do their work, and nothing more.
Partners and collaborators
Provide controlled access to selected materials without making external users full system users.
How it stays controlled
Scoped, logged, and time-aware
Scoped access
Each portal exposes only the content you choose: a folder, a presentation, or a defined set of materials.
Login or secure link
Grant access by account login or by a secure link, depending on how formal the engagement needs to be.
Access logging
Every visit is recorded, so you can see who viewed what and when.
Inactivity alerts
Admins are nudged when access goes quiet, so stale grants get reviewed and revoked instead of lingering.
Two ways to grant access
Secure link or login, you choose
By secure link
Send a scoped, time-limited link for a quick engagement. No account required. Best for short, focused access like a single advisory board or a defined review window.
By login
Provision account-based access for ongoing or more formal engagements, with identity tied to each user. Best when access needs to persist and be individually attributable.
Who it helps
Controlled external access for every team
Scientific Communications
Share advisory board content securely, and revoke access when the engagement ends.
Field Medical
Give KOLs scoped access to selected materials without making them full users.
IT & Security
Time-limited, logged access for outside experts, with inactivity alerts on quiet grants.
FAQ
Common questions
Can external consultants, KOLs, or advisory board members access selected content?
Yes. Scoped external portals give outside experts secure access to only the content they should see, by login or secure link, with access logging and inactivity alerts.
Do external users need full system accounts?
No. External portals let you share selected content with outside users without making them full users of the library.
How do you keep external access from lingering?
Every visit is logged, and inactivity alerts prompt admins to review access that has gone quiet, so grants can be revoked when they are no longer needed.
