Integrated File Collaboration in Wire Messenger
Unlike traditional file management, Wire Drive is designed around secure communication first. Files live and collaboration happens where ideas flow and decisions are made.

From Secure Messaging to Secure Workspace
Wire Drive is a new, add-on Wire Messenger capability that adds centralized, secure file management and real-time document collaboration within Wire groups. When creating a group, you can enable Wire Drive to transform how files are shared, accessed, and collaborated on within that group.

Built for Secure Collaboration from Day One
Wire Drive is designed for teams that need to work on files without losing context or control. Files live directly inside secure conversations, so discussions, decisions, and documents stay connected, and access is always tied to verified group membership.
With enterprise-grade controls, Wire Drive protects files by default while remaining easy to use. Teams collaborate faster, and organizations maintain security, compliance, and governance.


Productivity Without Friction, Built to Keep Teams Moving
Wire Drive helps teams get work done faster by keeping files exactly where collaboration happens. Documents stay inside conversations, so teams do not waste time switching tools, searching for the latest version, or managing complex sharing settings. Privacy is built in, so teams can collaborate confidently without worrying about accidental exposure.
By combining real-time file collaboration with automatic protection, Wire Drive lets teams stay focused on execution, not file handling or access management.
Key Capabilities of Drive
Work on files together the moment they are shared. Team members can preview documents and make edits in real time without switching tools or downloading copies.
Files can be accessed within each group, keeping collaboration tightly connected to the relevant conversation, or through a unified view that brings everything together in one place.
Access is tied directly to group membership. Add someone to a group and they instantly get the right file access. Remove them and access is revoked automatically.
Designed to feel simple from the first click while meeting strict enterprise security requirements. Secure collaboration has never been easier.
Real World Use Cases
Front-Line/Back-Office Coordination
Scenario
Field teams and back-office staff need to exchange files quickly. Reports, photos, forms, and approvals are often shared across different tools, which leads to delays, lost context, and access risks.
Solution with Wire Drive
Files are shared inside secure group chats. Front-line staff upload content once, and back-office teams can instantly preview and act. Access follows group membership, so documents stays secured without slowing teams down.
Secure Project Collaboration
Scenario
Cross-functional teams work on sensitive projects that involve documents, spreadsheets, and presentations. Traditional file sharing creates version conflicts, unclear ownership, and complex permission management.
Solution with Wire Drive
All project files live in one shared space tied to the project group. Teams collaborate in real time, always working on the latest version. Permissions update automatically as the team changes, which keeps collaboration simple and secure.
Crisis/Out-of-Band Communications
Scenario
During incidents or emergencies, teams must coordinate quickly outside normal systems. They need a secure alternative when email or standard cloud tools are unavailable, compromised, or too slow.
Solution with Wire Drive
Wire Drive enables secure out-of-band file sharing inside trusted groups. Critical and highly confidential documents can be shared, reviewed, and updated instantly, with strong encryption and clear access control, even under pressure.
