Banking and finance organizations have a lot to consider when it comes to running smoothly. With an increasing demand for online access and strong cybersecurity practices, balancing customer needs with business needs can be stressful—sometimes even overwhelming.
Struggles with inefficient existing processes and compliance for privacy laws and regulations can also distract from achieving critical file transfer requirements, like encrypted data, optimal communication with trading partners, and activity logs for auditing and reporting.
Some organizations use legacy tools and manual scripts to meet their needs, but this approach often creates more problems than it solves. As a result, more banks and financial agencies are starting to move to managed file transfer solutions like GoAnywhere MFT to simplify, secure, and automate their data transfers.
The Benefits of Secure File Transfer
GoAnywhere MFT is a flexible, easy-to-use solution that deploys to a variety of environments and provides an immediate ROI for file transfers. Whether you need to make your existing processes more efficient, reduce or reallocate your resources, or meet auditing requirements for your organization, GoAnywhere can help.
Here are a few examples of how managed file transfer can streamline business processes:
Satisfy Compliance
Helps to meet file transfer compliance obligations for PCI DSS, GLBA, SOX, and the Dodd-Frank Act, as well as any local and state privacy laws you may have.
Track File Transfer Activity
Monitor your file transfers with GoAnywhere’s audit logs. Logs include information on the name of the file, who sent it, who received it, and if it was transmitted successfully. Compile, create, and export detailed PDF reports for trade partners with GoAnywhere's audit reduction capabilities.
Manage Security Controls
Rely on managed file transfer security control settings, including segmented groups for multiple security zones and a key management system (KMS) for key pairs and certificates, to meet strict in-house, state, federal, and industry requirements.
Automate Batch File Transfers
Configure when your file transfers should execute with GoAnywhere’s built-in scheduler. Batch file transfers can be scheduled to run at a future date and time. Easily execute multiple file transfers concurrently, trigger one when another process completes, or kick off a transfer immediately when a file is added to a specific folder using GoAnywhere's scheduling features.
Reduce Your Costs
Eliminate the need for custom scripts, legacy programs, and homegrown tools. These file transfer methods introduce the possibility of user errors and unwanted vulnerabilities, lack robust auditing capabilities, and require in-depth knowledge to update or expand them—all of which can be costly to navigate and maintain.
Support Your Team
Your organization's IT professionals can control GoAnywhere from any secure location with the flexible, browser-based interface. File transfers can be performed from anywhere through HTTPS, and mobile support will give your team flexibility to work from any device.
Meet Your PCI DSS File Transfer Requirements
For those who need to achieve compliance with the Payment Card Industry’s Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), GoAnywhere provides the following benefits:
