Although plain File Transfer Protocol (FTP) has been the data transfer solution of choice for several decades, it’s no longer fit for today’s business environments. With so many business processes now involving sensitive data, file transfer workflows are now at risk of various threats. And because plain or standard FTP is inherently plagued with serious vulnerabilities, it’s important to replace it with more secure alternatives. In this post, we’ll talk about how you can take advantage of two secure FTP options and make them even more suitable for transferring sensitive information.

Overview: What is SAML? Since version 8.8, JSCAPE MFT Server (now at v9.1) has already supported SAML Web SSO. Although we introduced SSO and its benefits in previous posts, we never went into the details of specific Web SSO standards like SAML and OpenID (another supported Web SSO). But in order to take advantage of any of our Web single sign-on features, you'll need to have at least some basic understanding of each of these two standards. Today, you can start with SAML or Security Assertion Markup Language.

Note: This article was originally published on March 2012 but was updated and re-published on September 3, 2018 When you depend on your managed file transfer server for smooth business operations, it is important to know the limitations of your system. As an administrator, it is ideal to find out your server limitations before your users do. This is the reason JSCAPE has developed a tool for administrators to find out where those limitations lie. JSCAPE MFT Monitor is a great tool for administrators, with its ability to run load tests and measure the performance of file transfer services, among other functions.

Following major corporate scandals, most notably the high-profile cases of Enron, WorldCom and Tyco, the United States Congress responded by enacting the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (SOX). The rationale for this federal law, which introduces provisions for stringent financial reporting, internal controls and corporate governance, was to restore investor confidence in the capital markets and prevent corporate fraud. Today, publicly traded companies must ensure the accuracy of their financial statements to avoid regulatory penalties, reputational damage and legal repercussions.

If you followed the steps in Part 1, then you should now have a DLP-enabled group. That group directory will have the capability to detect files stored in it that contain certain credit card numbers. If a member of that group attempts to download such a file, the server will prevent the download from taking place and fire a "DLP rule matched" event. In the screenshot below, a user is prevented by JSCAPE's DLP from downloading a file containing MasterCard numbers.
