On its own, AS2 already comes with a nice set of features that enable it to secure EDI transactions. It's got encryption. It's got non-repudiation. It even has data integrity checks as well as a form of server and client authentication. So, even if you run AS2 over HTTP, your data can already get a good amount of protection. Still, it wouldn't hurt to add more layers of protection. And you can do that if you run your AS2 transactions over HTTPS.

Overview There will be times when you'll want to transfer files over a secure connection. One option is to use FTPS (FTP over SSL) which provides data-in-motion encryption through SSL (Secure Sockets Layer). When you setup an FTPS service in JSCAPE MFT Server, you'll notice that you actually have 3 modes to choose from explicit SSL, forced explicit SSL and implicit SSL.

This post was originally published on July 8, 2012 but was updated on October 27, 2018 Overview In this post, I'm going to take you through the steps of setting up JSCAPE MFT Gateway to establish load balancing across two FTP servers. Load balanced FTP servers can help you achieve high availability for mission critical file transfer services. We're going to start by creating a new FTP cluster consisting of two FTP servers. Once that FTP cluster is ready, we'll then make it accessible to clients by creating an FTP reverse proxy service that will forward client requests to that cluster.

The problem with using a single SFTP server Organizations in different industries like finance, healthcare and retail rely on an SFTP server to transfer files internally and externally. However, using a single SFTP server can result in a failed data transfer workflow, especially if you don’t have a backup plan to correct it. If your organization’s SFTP server experiences hardware issues, glitches, network outages or a security breach, in-progress data transfers may be interrupted, and your data’s integrity could also be compromised. This system issue won’t only lead to communication and security concerns, but it could also cause substantial business disruption because of unexpected and unnecessary downtime. Downtime translates to financial losses, operational delays and reputational damage.
