FILE TRANSFER FOR BANKING & FINANCE

PCI-Compliant File Transfers

Banking and finance organizations have a lot to consider when it comes to running smoothly. With an increasing demand for online access and strong cybersecurity practices, balancing customer needs with business needs can be stressful sometimes even overwhelming.

Struggles with inefficient existing processes and compliance for privacy laws and regulations can also distract from achieving critical file transfer requirements, like encrypted data, optimal communication with trading partners, ad activity logs for auditing and reporting.

Some organizations use legacy tools and manual scripts to meet their
needs, but this approach often creates more problems than it solves. As a result, more banks and financial agencies are starting to move to managed file transfer solutions like GoAnywhere MFT to simplify, secure, and automate their data transfers.
