The security of any SSL/TLS-protected connection largely depends on the client and server's choice of cipher suites. But what are cipher suites? If you use file transfer protocols like HTTPS, FTPS, and AS2 but don't know what cipher suites are, you will want to read this post and learn how to use a cipher.

Overview Here's something that's particularly useful if you want to provide access control to JSCAPE MFT Server directories based on need to know and according to job responsibilities. It's called Groups. JSCAPE managed file transfer server Groups are named sets of virtual directories and file system permissions that may be assigned to multiple user accounts. You can use them to comply with certain laws and regulations like PCI-DSS, HIPAA, and SOX.

Internet content adaptation protocol (ICAP) antivirus scanning, enabled within JSCAPE MFT Server by Redwood, offloads virus detection to a dedicated server, boosting system efficiency and security. It allows real-time malware checks and enhances compliance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) without the local system's burden. This method ensures secure, seamless file transfers across all protocols, which simplifies administration and maintains up-to-date protection. One of the key features of JSCAPE MFT Server by Redwood is the ability to support ICAP antivirus scanning. But what is it? How can it benefit your end-users, trading partners and system administrators? How does it compare to traditional file transfer virus scanning solutions? In this blog post, we answer these questions and more. ICAP benefits ICAP, as defined in RFC 3507, allows JSCAPE MFT Server to offload virus scanning tasks to a dedicated ICAP server, enhancing security policies without burdening the local server with the heavy lifting. This advanced scanning method enables real-time antivirus checks by forwarding HTTP messages to an ICAP service for evaluation.

Theoretically, RSA keys that are 2048 bits long should be good until 2030. If so, isn't it a bit early to start using the 4096-bit keys that have become increasingly available in encryption-enabled applications? It depends.

If your AS2 connection already runs over HTTPS, your EDI messages should already be protected by the data-in-motion encryption that comes with SSL/TLS. But what if you want an added layer of security or if you're somehow only using HTTP and want to encrypt your transmission? You'll need something like this.

In this video, we'll talk about the algorithms included in a typical SFTP server and explain their basic functions. We'll cover algorithms for key exchanges, ciphers, MACs, and compressions. After that, we'll dive into the JSCAPE MFT Server Manager Web GUI and show you where you can configure those SFTP algorithms there.
