Abstract

Mechanisms for generating documents with confidential information are provided, the systems comprising: a memory; and a first collection of at least of one hardware processor coupled to the memory and configured to: receive from a user device a request for a first document with confidential information; generate a second document, that corresponds to the first document, with at least one token corresponding to the confidential information; transmit the second document to a second collection of at least one hardware processor in a computer network that is entitled to access the confidential information; receive from the second collection of at least one hardware processor in the computer network a uniform resource locator (URL) corresponding to the first document; and transmit the URL to the user device. In some of these mechanisms, the user device is in the computer network.
