While plenty of file storage and sharing methods abound, what looks like a good deal on the surface can end up costing plenty in the end. Read this white paper to discover more about the true cost of “free” file sharing systems and file sharing best practices. 

This brief paper details the challenges of traditional file sharing systems and highlights an enterprise collaboration tool that can better meet content management challenges. 

Traditional methods of managing file transfers can’t prevent or protect your enterprise from compliance violations: they’re insecure, inefficient, and non-auditable. This situation leaves a serious gap in compliance strategies. Learn how to close this gap with managed file transfer. 

Each month many companies, big or small, well known or unknown, experience a data security loss with the potential exposure of thousands to millions of sensitive customer or employee records. This brief examines cryptographic methods, specifically tape data encryption, to combat such security losses. 

Unencrypted and unsecure communication protocols are increasingly being replaced with Secure Shell (SSH). But while implementing SSH can improve security, allowing stronger authentication and secure tunneling of data between hosts, it also introduces a number of problems. View now to explore the common issues with SSH and how to address them.
