Enhanced File Transfer Server
GlobalSCAPE’s Enhanced File Transfer (EFT) Server uses industry-standard protocols to secure and guarantee information transferred between business partners, clients, and branch offices. EFT provides organizations with a powerful and cost-effective alternative to leased lines, VANs, VPNs, and homegrown solutions.
Data is protected and controlled during transit and storage, and is fully auditable during that process. Once received, the data can be managed by an extensible, automated workflow framework based on specific triggered events.
