Managed File Transfer Security Best Practices Consultation - HANDD Business Solutions

Deployments

“Our users simply love Google G Suite, but we wanted to make sure our sensitive data was protected and users didn’t have inappropriate access. HANDD had everything we needed.”

CISO, Fortune 100 Hospitality Company

An investment group had an existing MFT solution that they wanted to integrate DLP with and capture sensitive information that was leaving the organisation.

HANDD upgraded the existing Managed File Transfer solution to activate the new ICAP protocol, enabling integration with DLP. This mean that files could be sensitivity checked before leaving the organisation. The company now has full visibility and can protect sensitive information from leaving the organisation via their secure file transfer solution.

An Investment Group

A Global Venture Capital Company was experiencing restrained business operations because sensitive IR communications lacked protection beyond the organisation, leading to loss of visibility and control over files shared externally with LPs. With a DRM solution in place, the customer was able to maintain control over their data with dynamic data protection and access controls. The sensitive data was secured automatically with a full audit trail provided. This protection and frictionless experience complemented existing workflows.

Global Venture Capital Company

Securing Managed File Transfer (MFT) systems is essential for protecting sensitive data and ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements.
