How is Global Courier different from secure FTP?
-
ISEEU Global Courier transfers data fully encrypted which is much more secure than FTP that transfers all data "in the clear".
-
ISEEU Global Courier includes 2-Factor authentication as standard. FTP and secure FTP both rely on password authentication which is less secure than 2-FA.
-
ISEEU Global Courier provides a comprehensive audit trail and reporting tool unlike FTP and secure FTP which have little or no audit trail.
-
The workflow component within ISEEU Global Courier can be enforced at the individual user level. FTP and secure FTP have no control/workflow capability to restrict what data is sent out of the organisation.
-
ISEEU Global Courier secure file sharing can send files securely to any recipient in any organisation without requiring pre-staging or additional software installation for the recipient. FTP and secure FTP require pre-staging.
-
ISEEU Global Courier is very easy to use with minimal training requirements. It has been designed to make secure file sharing "as easy as writing an envelope" with the configuration being done once for all users. FTP and secure FTP require the installation and configuration of a suitable FTP client application and subsequent training of the users.
Can files be sent to groups of recipients?
Yes it is possible to send files to group of recipient
Are there any limits to the file size or type that can be sent?
ISEEU Global Courier has no limits on the type of file that can be sent.
A secure file sharing transaction can comprise multiple files, each up to 2.4 GB in size. For files larger than this ISEEU Global Courier fragments and sends as multiple transactions and reconstructs on download.
Is there any client software required for secure file sharing with iSEEU Global Courier?
All that Publishers and recipients require is an industry standard browser, a mobile phone (for 2-Factor authentication) and an e-mail address.
Can access be provided to mobile phone/smart phone devices?
Yes, provided the device supports an appropriate browser.
Can the product be used with mobile communications such as GPRS/3G mobile broadband?
ISEEU Global Courier can be used with GPRS/3G mobile data cards but the performance will vary according to the size and number of files being uploaded or downloaded using these technologies.
Can you track and audit usage?
Yes, all steps of the process of publishing, authorising, retrieving and downloading files are fully audited. The audit logs can be interrogated as part of the system admin functionality.
