Businesses rely on secure file exchange to protect their data. Whether it’s transferring files between employees, or sending and receiving files from customers and partners, the secure transfer is essential for protecting your company’s confidential information.
What should I know about this?
Here are some tips for securing your file exchange:
- Use a secure transfer protocol (SFTP) or secure shell (SSH) protocol. These protocols encrypt your data in transit, making it more difficult for hackers to intercept and steal your information.
- Don’t use unsecured email to send sensitive files. Email is not a secure means of transmitting data, so always use a secure file transfer method instead.
- Require authentication for all users who access your file exchange system. This will help to prevent unauthorized access to your data.
- Implement role-based access controls. This will allow you to restrict what users can do with the files they have access to, based on their role within your organization.
