Government agencies face significant regulations and security policies when it comes to protecting sensitive data. An effective Managed File Transfer solution is critical for helping agencies meet these strict security requirements.

In addition to requirements like GLBA, SOX, HIPAA and PCI DSS, one of the most significant standards to which federal government agencies are accountable is the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA). This set of requirements, enacted in 2002, mandate that every agency creates, documents and implements a plan that ensures that the information systems and the data they contain are kept secure. This includes data that is provided or managed by third-party entities such as other government agencies, contractors and trading partners.

GoAnywhere automates, simplifies, secures

Here are just a few ways that GoAnywhere MFT allows your organization to reduce costs by streamlining processes and automating workflows:

Control the transfer of all sensitive files
Secured and audited at every step, authorized personnel can confidently send and receive sensitive data files. GoAnywhere MFT works with strong encryption standards including AES, SSL, SSH and Open PGP.
Fully and automatically audit file movements
Regulations require documentation of who has access to sensitive files, where a file has been moved, and every person that might have had access to it along the way. GoAnywhere MFT automatically records complete audit trails of all file transfer transactions and confirms successful delivery.
Reduce costs and free up staff
Even with measures in place to securely transfer files, the time demands on IT can be significant. But with GoAnywhere MFT, the processes of sending and receiving files are fully automated so staff can focus on other tasks.

It used to take eight hours every month to print and send out our monthly accounting reports from JD Edwards. We'd submit between 100-150 jobs to our JD Edwards System each month, and they'd each generate a PDF. Someone would then open the PDF, save it to a specific file location, determine who was supposed to receive the file, then attach it to an email and send it off. With GoAnywhere, we've got it down to less than an hour."
