OPENTEXT SECURE MFT

In the CloudOpenText Secure MFT is offered as an on premises, cloud or hybrid service. Quickly onboard new users with LDAP/AD integration or simply “invite a guest” and they will auto-matically be provisioned an account. All user provisioning can either be automated, IT initiated, or a combination to support easing the workload on IT resources.

Microsoft Outlook PluginBreak the strong hold of file size restrictions

Email is indispensable in our business day-to-day life; it is the tool we use not only to deliver short messages, but to exchange large and critical business files. Unfor-tunately, cost restrictions imposed on network infrastructure stopped you from sending that 50MB PowerPoint presentation to your manager, or sharing with your external ad-agency the new TV spot in High Definition worth a total of several GB. Stress no more, OpenText Managed File Transfer boosts your ordinary Microsoft

Outlook client, so large files can be deliv-ered to anyone inside or outside of your organization without size limits.

Audit TrailReport on all file exchange activities

The trouble with FTP, email, and public file sharing site is that you never really know how much of your business data or valued intellectual properties are “out there”, stored in an unmanaged FTP site or a 3rd party consumer cloud solution, out of the reach of your network security policy.

OpenText Managed File Transfer keeps a record of every email transaction, every file transferred, and every individual who sent and received those files. These records can be easily queried in audit reports. With data transfer securely encrypted using FIPS 140-2 cryptography both in transit and at rest, OpenText MFT helps your organization adhere to policies such as PCI-DSS, HIPAA, GLBA, and many more where control and visibility of sensitive data movement is paramount.

STORM File Acceleration Your data deserves to be moved faster

Don’t wait for days or even hours for your urgent business files to reach their destina-tion. With the new acceleration technology developed by OpenText called STORM, large file exchange is dramatically improved. A patent pending file exchange protocol, STORM minimizes the effect of distance and latency on a network and auto-tunes itself to different network conditions.

Dispatch and Process Folder ExchangeImprove user experience with drag and drop Dispatch Folders

Preconfigured with a target destination, drag and drop files into a Microsoft Windows Folder and MFT will automatically send them. Use Dispatch Folders for email exchanges that happen on a regular basis between parties.

OPENTEXT SECURE MFT

Process Based File (PBF) ExchangeIn addition to user triggered information exchange scenarios, MFT offers automated download of information to support busi-ness processes with no user interaction. PBF Exchange is a fast and easy way to put process based file exchange in place without lots of workflow complexity. Because PBF Exchange involves pulling data rather than pushing it, it is perfect for those scenarios where DMZ or firewall restrictions might be an issue. PBF Exchange makes the automated exchange of content between business partners, customers, or peers easy and seamless while maintaining all of the security of more complicated solutions.

Multi-Location Deployment MFT multi-server architecture dramatically improves performance and security

A flexible architecture designed to fit your global business, OpenText MFT Transfer

Servers can be located across global locations to optimize the network usage, dramatically improve file transfer times, and segregate content for the ultimate in security. With users leveraging local MFT Transfer Servers for sending and receiving, users always enjoy the full benefits of LAN performance even over global transfers.

User Provisioning Conveniently control and distribute MFT accounts

With centralized user management and a flexible model for user provisioning, admin-istrators can easily manage and distribute user accounts. With web registration and self-provisioning, administrators can both manually choose to approve new accounts or automate new account setup. In addition, administrators can enable business users to “invite a friend” for customer or partner account setup.

Guaranteed Delivery Successful transfer each time every time

How much time you have spent on trying to transfer the same file over and over again only because each time the transfer failed you have to restart it from the beginning?

OpenText Managed File Transfer brings you automated Restart and Notifications features to address those challenges. You can resume a file transfer whether it was paused due to network failure or because you suspended it so you can attend your daughter’s recital. Guaranteed delivery ensures your transfer completes regardless of your location or network capacity. With a rich set of automatic and in-transit fallback mechanisms from its fully accelerated dual-channel based STORM protocol to simple TCP and finally HTTP/HTTPS means that not only does OpenText MFT can guarantee files will arrive at their intended destination, it will get them there as fast as possible.
