Abstract

A system for providing a managed virtual point to point communication service having a verified directory and providing secure transmission and controlled delivery of electronic document images may include a memory, an interface, and a processor. The memory may store a verified directory of users. The interface may communicate with devices of sending and receiving users in the verified directory. The processor may be operative to receive a request to deliver an electronic document image from a sending user to a receiving user. The processor may provide secure access to the electronic document image to the receiving user. The processor may provide a delivery confirmation to the sending device of the sending user upon determining that the electronic document image was securely accessed by the receiving user. The delivery confirmation may indicate that the electronic document image was securely transmitted to the receiving user.
