What about a torrent? You'll have to encrypt with 7zip or something to keep it secure, but that and qbitorrent will do the trick.

through the public BitTorrent tracker, I'll try it too, thanks

Qbittorrent or Rutorrent has some kind of extension to allow single private file sharing

Or can a private magnet link accomplish this?

Idk but I wouldn't risk it when it's easy to encrypt stuff. Good security is done in layers.
