Deployments

A UK-based NHS Trust needed to securely exchange sensitive patient records with employees and third parties.

We deployed a Managed File Transfer solution, interacted with by more than 50,000 users on a daily basis and scripted automated events to facilitate adherence to strict file transfer schedules and SLAs.

A UK-based NHS Trust

An interface for an international Insurance Company was required to enable their customers to complete online forms and upload insurance documents that would share relevant information securely with third-party brokers on a strict policy.

We implemented a secure File Transfer solution for the main platform and built bespoke scripts for the customer to run automated background tasks.

International Insurance Company

The replacement of multiple insecure file transfer methods by an international Global Bank was necessary for them to get control and visibility over end-to-end transactions.

A Managed File Transfer solution we deployed with full auditing capabilities meant we could give the client full control and visibility of their data. Meanwhile our comprehensive training package enabled our client to get the most from their new solution.

Fortra’s FileCatalyst is a robust accelerated file transfer solution that supports client/server architecture, enabling the fast transfer of large files. This solution from Fortra is designed specifically to allow the transfer of large files over remote networks experiencing high latency or packet loss.

Fortra’s FileCatalyst solutions employ multiple techniques to yield speedy file transfer results.

As a UDP-based protocol, it makes transferring large data sets much faster, even in high latency or packet loss environments. To cut down on time-consuming compression and decompression processes before and after a file has been transmitted, FileCatalyst compresses the files you send on the fly.

TCP streaming acts as FileCatalyst’s functioning safety net, which allows for file transfer acceleration to occur even when UDP is not possible. Additionally, the solution supports delta transfer algorithms which allows for users to revise files and, instead of sending the entirety of the file, sends just the revision that was made. Once the revision arrives to its destination, the original file is modified.
