# Transfer of encrypted human data with OwnCloud
This How-to Card provides a step-by-step guide on how to transfer small sensitive files (< 4 GB) via LCSB OwnCloud securely.
1. Use a default zip software installed on your Uni.lu laptop to zip your file(s) with a strong password.
* Use a password generator (e.g. dice ware, PrivateBin) to make the password strong.
* The password is needed to decrypt the data, thus ensure the password is stored securely.
2. Go to [LCSB PrivateBin](https://privatebin.lcsb.uni.lu/) and type/add the password in the Editor tab.
* Enable the feature "Burn after reading" by ticking the checkbox. This means that the link to the password can only be used **once** so it expires upon first access.

* You will be asked to enter your LUMS credentials once you click on "Send".
* You should be redirected to a page containing the password link.

3. Share the password link with your collaborator via your preferred communication channel.
4. The collaborator must confirm that the password was received before proceeding to share the encrypted file(s).
5. Login to [OwnCloud](https://owncloud.lcsb.uni.lu/) with LUMS account. LUMS account can be requested via the [Service Portal](https://service.uni.lu/sp?id=sc_cat_item&table=sc_cat_item&sys_id=c536257ddb336010ca53454039961936).
* Upload the zipped file(s) to OwnCloud and make a share link with the collaborator.
* See a full guide on how to use [OwnCloud](https://howto.lcsb.uni.lu/?exchange-channels:owncloud).

6. Share the access link with your collaborator by typing in their email as shown on the image above.
* The collaborator will automatically receive a link to the encrypted data on OwnCloud by email.
7. The collaborator can now decrypt the data with the password received via Privatebin.
