Technology platform for providing secure group-based access to sets of digital assets
Various embodiments include a secure access system that provides secure group-based access to sets of digital assets. The system may allow a user to upload digital assets to the system for secure access by other users, and may allow a user to remove digital assets from the system as well. The assets may be associated with a family, and may be stored as a “family album”. The system may issue a secure credential to family members for accessing the family album. A family member may invite another family or individual to view the family album. On acceptance of the invitation, the system may automatically forward the secure credential to the invited family or individual. The invited family or individual may use the secure credential to access the family album with no further action required by the invited family or individual.
