Progress has announced the upcoming release of MOVEit 2025.1, available on 19 November 2025. This update brings meaningful enhancements that strengthen security, improve user experience and support wider adoption across global teams. For organisations that rely on MOVEit for secure, compliant and reliable file transfer, this release delivers practical upgrades that matter.

As a trusted partner and Managed File Transfer (MFT) specialist, HANDD Business Solutions has highlighted the key improvements you can expect.

1. Enhanced Security for Modern Threats

Cyber threats evolve fast, and MOVEit 2025.1 strengthens protection through continuous product hardening across MOVEit Transfer, MOVEit Cloud and MOVEit Automation.

OIDC-powered Single Sign-On (SSO)

Both MOVEit Transfer and MOVEit Cloud now support secure, modern authentication via OpenID Connect (OIDC). This allows seamless integration with identity providers such as Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD), Okta and others.

Benefits include:

• Lower password risk
• Reduced administrative workload
• Strong alignment with Zero Trust principles
• Unified SSO for both web and REST API access

MOVEit Automation also receives OIDC-based SSO for the first time, simplifying administrator access without compromising security.

Proactive File Ageing Alerts

MOVEit Transfer and MOVEit Cloud introduce new automated alerts that notify teams when files approach age thresholds. This improvement enhances visibility, supports SLA compliance and reduces manual monitoring.

2. Simpler, More Intuitive User Experiences

MOVEit 2025.1 introduces features that make the platform easier to adopt and use, particularly for new users and global teams.

Arabic Localisation for MOVEit Transfer and MOVEit Cloud

This update adds full right-to-left language support, which is especially valuable for organisations operating in the Middle East. It improves accessibility and supports regional compliance requirements.

Best Practices Course for MOVEit Automation

Progress has rolled out a guided Best Practices course designed to help teams onboard faster and adopt Automation features more effectively. This reduces friction during early deployment and supports stronger long-term utilisation.

Why This Release Matters

For organisations in Malaysia and across Asia, MOVEit 2025.1 strengthens both the security and usability of a mission-critical MFT platform. From modern authentication and automated alerts to multi-language support, these improvements help teams work more efficiently while maintaining compliance.
