Managed File Transfer Technology FAQ’s
What is Managed File Transfer Software (MFT)?
Managed file transfer is a technology that provides the secure transfer of data in an efficient and a reliable manner.
What is File Transfer Protocol?
File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a technology used for moving files, but that does not include the option for encrypting data in transit. It was originally designed for use in private scientific and research networks and is based on a specification defined in 1985 by the Internet Engineering Task Force in RFC 959. FTP uses two connections to send data. Authentication data (e.g., usernames and passwords) is exchanged on a command channel, then data files are sent on a separate channel that is established after the authentication is complete.

It’s important as a business you are clear on your requirement. This way a potential vendor will be in a good position to let you know whether or not their software is a good fit for your business requirements.Â
