- Email access = access to all passwords in history
- Mail service administrators can see content
- Possible interception during server transmission
Messengers and Chats
- Indefinite storage in chat history
- Cross-device synchronization creates copies
- Chat backups in cloud services
- Account access = access to all passwords
SMS and Text Messages
- Transmission through unprotected channels
- Possible carrier-level interception
- Storage in phone message history
- SIM swapping and other phone attacks
Notes and Paper Media
- Physical theft or loss of media
- Possible copying without owner knowledge
- No destruction control
- Cannot track compromise

Ensure recipient successfully received password before deleting from your systems.
Limit attempts
Use links with view limits (1-3 attempts maximum) to protect against brute force.
Warn recipient
Inform recipient in advance that they'll receive password link so they don't consider it suspicious.
