GlobalSCAPE's Enhanced File Transfer Server (EFT) is a hardened file/data transfer server that provides secure data transactions over standard Internet protocols. Used together with DMZ Gateway and the EFT Web Transfer Client, Enhanced File Transfer Server provides a highly secure and reliable file management system. EFT Server highlights include:
Multi-protocol support: (FTP, FTP (SSL/TLS), SFTP (SSH2), HTTP/S)
Post-transaction processing using highly configurable event rules
Data reliability and integrity guarantees
Repository encryption based on OpenPGP standards
Automation of complex and time-consuming tasks
Local and remote administration of multiple servers and/or sites
Flexible authentication choices
Highly configurable user, account, and site settings
EFT Server protects intellectual property, trade secrets, and customer files transferred over the Internet using secure protocols including FTPS (SSL/TLS), SFTP (SSH2) and HTTP/S.
EFT Server helps meet regulatory and privacy requirements such as HIPAA, GLBA, and SB1386, by including OpenPGP technology for encrypting, decrypting, and signing files stored on disk. EFT Server also includes provisions for off-loading files to another server securely or to a network share.
This optional server is designed to reside in the demilitarized zone and provide secured communications with EFT Server behind intranet firewalls without requiring any inbound firewall holes between the internal network and the DMZ.
This optional client is a browser based file transfer client that allows users to upload and download files to an EFT server using a connected web browser. It gives your users a transparent way to connect, and you don't have to install anything on the client end—the client deploys automatically from EFT Server if you have a license.
Secure data delivery requires strong audit trails for tracking and non-repudiation. EFT Server provides industry standard logging (W3C, NCSA, Microsoft IIS Extended), E-mail notification of completed transactions, and digital certificates for proof of identity.
EFT Server enables secure, reliable file transfers using standard FTP or HTTP clients, including Web browsers or secure FTP clients such as CuteFTP Professional.
EFT Server extends the industry standard FTP and HTTP protocols with enterprise-class reliability features, including post transmission integrity verification, mid-file recovery, and automatic restart.
EFT Server can be controlled through its Windows Administrator Interface, or through its Component Object Model (COM) interface. The COM API is a programmatic interface that lets you control the server from your own custom applications using any COM enabled programming language.
EFT Server supports Multi-part (segmented) transfers for faster delivery of large files over large geographical distances. Multi-part transfers require the use of compatible clients such as CuteFTP Professional.
GlobalSCAPE EFT Server lets you quickly and efficiently manage the removal of users, manage temporary accounts, address the revocation and if necessary re-issuance of expired or compromised public-keys or certificates.
EFT Server supports password, public-key, or one-time-password authentication. User profiles can be managed internally or externally through NTLM, Active Directory (AD) or ODBC data sources.
Manage system resources including bandwidth, folder access, file types and more using granular or site-wide controls provided for user and group management. Visually manage folder permissions via Explorer-like Virtual File System view. Inherit or override permissions, grant administrative, guest, or anonymous permissions or deny access altogether.
