Botdoc ([www.botdoc.io](http://www.botdoc.io/)), is doing just this.  We are picking things up and dropping them off, sending and collecting (return label).  Many of our clients call us the secure ‘FedEX’ of data.  Botdoc is moving things digitally, securely and keeping all the tracking information, just like FedEx does with a package.  So we are transporting data and documents with end to end encryption, which isn’t necessarily novel, except we’re doing it without pins, passwords, logins, accounts, software or apps to download.  Furthermore upon delivery the encrypted container and data evaporate. There are several benefits of having secure digital transport on one's road map. I'll highlight some of them here and we’ll go into a lot more detail on these topics in future posts. The following benefits of secure digital transport are what many are calling a secure digital transportation layer for existing systems. 1. Its more secure. Reducing the attack surface area and segregating the system so external facing layers are separated from internal core systems. 2. It reduces friction for sending activities read ([https://botdoc.io/2018/09/12/sharing-versus-sending-a-difference/](https://botdoc.io/2018/09/12/sharing-versus-sending-a-difference/)) 3. It reduces infrastructure costs 4. It reduces operational support staff costs Over the next 5 years every major company that owns or builds systems and portals will be adding a secure digital transportation layer to their architecture road maps for the above reasons.  Botdoc is pioneering this space. ## Related Posts [ ### Botdoc Receives Patent Approval in Japan for Secure Digital Transport **December 14, 2021 ** Secure Digital Transport, Blog Expansion of its Intellectual Property Portfolio Paves the Way for Future Patents ](https://blog.botdoc.io/blog/botdoc-receives-patent-approval-in-japan-for-secure-digital-transport) [ ### Botdoc Is Replacing the Fax **March 01, 2020 ** Secure Digital Transport, Blog Any time something new comes along, there will always be naysayers.
