The recycle bin protects against data loss
From now on, deleted files in FTAPI SecuRooms virtual data rooms no longer disappear into the void — instead, they are safely stored in the new recycle bin.
Accidentally removed documents can be restored with just a few clicks — before any data is permanently lost. This provides added security and greater control over your data rooms, especially when handling sensitive or business-critical information.

Collaborate across organisations with the FTAPI Trust Network
Set up secure connections with other organisations to exchange messages in an encrypted and GDPR-compliant manner across organisational boundaries. Data moves securely within the network without any central authority having full access — in line with the federation approach.
With the FTAPI Trust Network, you can send and receive deliveries directly between FTAPI accounts — without the need to create guest accounts. This saves time, reduces manual effort, and makes cross-organisational collaboration much easier. Trust Networks are ideal for public authorities, healthcare institutions or partner companies operating their own FTAPI instance.

Secure, encrypted and accessible email communication
FTAPI’s secure, encrypted email communication meets the requirements for digital accessibility. FTAPI SecuMails has been externally tested and fulfils 92 per cent of the criteria according to WCAG 2.1. You can find our accessibility statement here.
This means the solution not only ensures the highest standards of data protection and security, but is also usable by people with visual, motor or cognitive impairments — enabling equal participation in the digital world.

April 2025
Full transparency with file status indicators
Structure your workflows directly within the data room using new status labels such as “To do” or “Completed”. Assign statuses to files with just a few clicks – for full transparency and improved team collaboration.
Whether it's project management or audit preparation, this new feature helps you keep track of progress at all times.

March 2025
PDF annotations
Collaboration on PDF documents is now possible with FTAPI SecuRooms, our virtual data rooms. Thanks to the new PDF annotations feature, users can add comments and highlights directly within the file preview in their browser. The annotated document can then be saved as a new version within the data room. All users with access can view the changes in the file preview and respond accordingly.

February 2025
SecuMails in a new design
Securely sending and receiving messages and files now comes in a completely redesigned interface. The SecuMails inbox is more streamlined and has been optimised for accessibility. New features have also been added, such as direct replies, printing, and a download timestamp in the outbox for sent files.

January 2025
File classification
With FTAPI’s virtual data rooms, you can now implement security and compliance requirements for file sharing even more easily. That’s because file classification is now available! Before sharing, you can assign a classification (e.g. “Public”, “Internal”, “Confidential” or “Secret”). This way, recipients immediately know how to handle the shared files. Overall, this ensures even clearer processes and more sovereignty in data protection.

December 2024
New and modern reply function
With FTAPI you can not only send messages and files securely. Thanks to the reply function, the recipient can react and also reply in encrypted form. To make secure, bidirectional communication even more accessible, the “Send reply” action has now been converted into a modern and barrier-free design.

November 2024
File versioning
With the new versioning functionality for the virtual data rooms – SecuRooms – managing and tracking documents becomes even easier and more secure. When uploading a document, the current version can be saved and older versions can be stored. These versions are arranged chronologically so that you have a clear history of edits. This makes it possible to track at any time who worked on a document, what changes were made and when these changes occurred.

September 2024
Upgrade for the premium virus scanner
The new feature “MIME Type Checking” is now available for FTAPI’s premium virus scanner. Companies can now specify which file types are permitted system-wide, and files are subjected to additional verification before uploading to ensure that the file formats have not been tampered with and that only authorised files are uploaded to the cloud.

August 2024
Virtual data rooms with deletion deadlines
In SecuRooms, FTAPI’s virtual data rooms, documents can now be assigned individual deletion deadlines. The deletion deadlines are set and managed centrally at the level of the respective data room. This enables precise control over the retention period of documents and supports compliance requirements.
