Managed file transfer (MFT) is an essential component of secure data exchange for businesses and enterprise organizations. Whether you are transferring sensitive financial information, private customer data or confidential intellectual property, selecting the right MFT solution to support your needs is crucial. Given data breaches that have affected several MFT solutions, we will discuss important security criteria that should be considered when buying MFT, such as:

Forward proxies and reverse proxies intermediate between clients and servers to improve security, control, policy enforcement and network performance. Forward proxies act on behalf of clients, whereas reverse proxies act on behalf of servers. In this post, we’ll take a closer look at the similarities and differences between these two important network security solutions. The information you’ll gain from this post can help you streamline your network-dependent business processes and improve your organization’s security posture.

Overview In an earlier quickstart guide to setting up an AS2 server, we featured a manual method for sending EDI messages. Because EDI transactions are best carried out automatically, we thought it would be a good idea to show you how to implement real-time transactions on the same solution we used in that post. AS2 (applicability statement 2) uses public keys and private keys to encrypt files being transferred between IP addresses. With AS2, security, authentication, message integrity and privacy are ensured with encryption, digital certificates and nonrepudiation techniques. AS2 provides greater security for your EDI data than standard FTP, supporting synchronous and asynchronous MDN (message disposition notification) and digital signatures. Plus, with JSCAPE's AS2 server you can send files regardless of file size and content type.

In this tutorial, you’ll learn the basic steps for setting up an Applicability Statement 2 (AS2) server. While the final outcome will only be a rudimentary AS2 setup, the steps you’ll encounter along the way are crucial in understanding AS2 configuration concepts. That said, we’ll be sharing links to other AS2 tutorials as we move along. When you combine all these tutorials, you’ll be able to configure a server for production-grade AS2 workflows.

Most customers who use SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) for file transfer automation prefer to authenticate SFTP clients through SFTP keys instead of passwords. Given the numerous inquiries on how to set up and use SFTP public key authentication, we decided to publish how-to articles to help organizations that wish to implement this authentication method in their SFTP environment. This article will focus on setting up instructions for the command line.

Overview In this post we're going to show you how to download files periodically from a trading partner. For this particular example, we'll be setting up JSCAPE MFT Server to connect to a trading partner every 10 minutes, download all files from a particular folder, and then delete each of those files from the remote server as soon as the download succeeds.
