Configuring Secure File Transfer
Secure File Transfer is a robust and controlled HTTPS-based application designed to enable authorized identities to upload, share, and download files securely. It offers fine-grained access control, encryption, malware detection, and audit logging to ensure compliance and security. Admins can configure who can use the application, set policies for file size, retention, and download limits, and maintain full oversight with detailed logs. Users benefit from secure file sharing, automated notifications, and resilient transfers with built-in auto-retry mechanisms for a seamless experience. All files are stored on the IDAC encrypted, ensuring data remains protected at rest.
