It’s Time to See EFT Server v6.3!

We have good news for GlobalSCAPE Enhanced File Transfer® Server (EFT Server™) customers out there: the highly anticipated release of EFT Server v6.3 has arrived and it’s better than ever!  Whether you are currently using EFT Server for your managed file transfers (MFT) needs or are considering its use, this enhanced version will have you convinced in no time.  With the addition of real-time visibility into all file transfers, improved workflow tools, and additional security features, EFT Server has separated itself from the rest of the MFT pack.

Improved visibility is just one of the fantastic upgrades in the latest version of EFT Server.  When you’re transferring files among customers and partners, visibility is crucial.  Without maintaining exceptional visibility, there is increased room for errors to occur.  What may seem like a small hiccup in the file transfer process can cause major problems that, in the long run, can negatively affect your company’s bottom line.  Real-time visibility into all file transfers ensures your data is monitored, audited, and reported over the entire lifecycle of the file transfer process.  EFT Server administrators and their end users are able to know the status of their file transfer at all times.

When it comes to the transfer of large and/or sensitive documents online, security is the number one concern. With this new version of EFT Server, GlobalSCAPE provides companies with two-factor authentication, which allows companies to maintain strict control over remote access to their networks and resources. Two-factor authentication provides a higher level of trust than password-only authentication by requiring something the user knows, such as a pin or password, and something the user has, such as a certificate, smartcard, or physical token.

Sending files securely using EFT Server gives you the peace of mind you need and the visibility you count on to conduct business efficiently and securely.  With these EFT Server improvements, GlobalSCAPE has taken yet another leap in front of the competition to prove once again that they are the leaders in transferring your secure business data.
