About Managed File Transfer
Managed File Transfer (MFT) is a software product that provides organisations with a holistic solution to their file transfer needs. MFT solutions often include:
- Managing file transfer processes
- Provisioning 3rd parties (a.k.a “trading partners”)
- Monitoring of file-transfer activity
- Secure communications (Session encryption, protocols)
- Security services (Encryption, audit, authentication, etc…)
- Delivery services (Resume/Restart, delivery verification, compression)
The main focus of MFT solutions is
- Business process enablement
- Manageability of file transfer processes
- And obviously security…
The MFT market consists of many vendors providing a large set of solutions. In general, MFT solutions can be categorised to the following types:
- Internal MFT - Moving files internally, between systems or branches (mostly automated)
- External MFT - Distributing data to or collecting data from 3rd parties, mostly for processing purposes, mostly automated
- Ad-hoc MFT - People sending files to each other
- One-time/ad-hoc relationship vs. pre-defined/long term relationship
- Collaborative MFT - Check-in/Check-out kind of activity, similar to sharing a file via a file-server
- Cyber-Ark's IBV addresses all types of MFT, and this is one of its competitive advantages.
