Secure Ad Hoc Transfer Module

The innovative Secure Ad Hoc Transfer (SAT) module is designed for companies that need an out-of-the-box solution to exchange files without the problems associated with having to manually create temporary FTP accounts, the size limitations and security issues of regular email, or the time delays and high costs of overnight and physical shipments.

The SAT Module works in conjunction with GlobalSCAPE’s Enhanced File Transfer (EFT) Server and allows users inside an enterprise to send and receive files of any size to and from recipients outside the organization with secure authentication, non-repudiation and auditing capabilities.

The process is bi-directional recipients can securely return files back to the sender if the sender, grants them permission. Auditing and receipt notifications provide non-repudiation of receipt for data that has been sent and/or received. This receipt is critical where financial or healthcare or other sensitive time critical transactions must be verifiably completed.

How does it work?

Users simply fill out a web form with sender and recipient information, and attach one or more files to send.
The Secure Ad hoc Transfer module then interacts with EFT Server, automatically setting up a temporary user account, storage space, and login credentials. An e-mail notification is then sent to the recipient alerting them that one or more files are available for download. The e-mail can be configured with various user-authentication options, including "single-click" authentication via a secure link.
When the recipient logs in to the server, they will see the list of files, which can be downloaded with a single mouse-click. If given permission by the sender, the recipient can upload files for the sender to retrieve. When the transaction is complete, the temporary accounts are disabled and deleted on a schedule set by you.
