Q. - When are files sent
to a secure FTP server NOT secure?
A. - As soon as they arrive.
Most 'secure' FTP products focus on protecting files during transfer, even though they are much
more vulnerable once they've been delivered to an Internet accessible server.
When a secure FTP client encrypts and sends a file to a secure FTP server, the server automatically
decrypts and stores it. If the file was 'in the clear' before being sent, then the server will store
it 'in the clear'. This means anyone who hacks the server can read, modify, copy
and delete the file.
Unless you use MOVEit ® DMZ.
MOVEit DMZ secure transfer and storage server by Standard
Networks eliminates this vulnerability. Unlike so-called secure ftp servers, MOVEit DMZ automatically
re-encrypts each file it receives -- before storing it. MOVEit DMZ does this using its own strong,
built-in, US and Canadian government FIPS 140-2 validated 256-bit AES encryption.
MOVEit DMZ delivers end-to-end encrypted file transfer and storage, without the need to buy, distribute,
or manage keys for expensive third-party file encryption program such as PGP.
Files can be exchanged with a MOVEit DMZ server using standard web browsers as well as a wide variety
of MOVEit HTTPS and third-party SSL- and SSH-based secure FTP clients. MOVEit DMZ also provides:
- File non-repudiation
- Guaranteed delivery
