TX-RAMP Grants Official Certification to Globalscape EFT

What TX-RAMP Certification Means for Data Security

In today’s cybersecurity environment, public agencies are under more pressure than ever to safeguard the sensitive data they are entrusted with. From citizen records to financial transactions, every digital interaction must be protected against evolving cyber threats.  

Recognizing this challenge, the State of Texas established the Texas Risk and Authorization Management Program (TX-RAMP), a standardized approach to verifying the security of cloud and software solutions used by state agencies.

Globalscape EFT Arcus, from Fortra MFT, is officially TX-RAMP certified as of Sept. 8, 2025. This certification serves as more than a compliance checkbox—it’s a validation of an ongoing commitment to security, reliability, and trust for customers in Texas and beyond.

Understanding TX-RAMP

TX-RAMP was created to streamline procurement and ensure that technology providers meet strict security and risk management standards before being deployed within Texas agencies. Modeled after federal frameworks like FedRAMP (Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program), TX-RAMP removes procurement uncertainty by pre-vetting solutions against well-defined criteria.

For public sector IT and procurement teams, TX-RAMP certification means:

• Confidence in compliance: Vendors must meet state-mandated security controls, reducing risk.
• Faster procurement cycles: Certified solutions skip lengthy security reviews, accelerating time-to-value.
• Operational efficiency: Agencies can focus on mission-critical work instead of managing vendor assessments.

Why TX-RAMP Certification Matters to Government Agencies

Agencies that rely on Globalscape EFT for their secure managed file transfer needs can be assured that TX-RAMP certification means they can count on:

• Pre-approved security standards: Globalscape’s file transfer solution has been independently validated against Texas’s rigorous standards.

• Seamless adoption: Agencies can confidently deploy Globalscape EFT without additional security roadblocks.
