MetaDefender Managed File Transfer is a security-focused MFT platform that moves files between users, systems and networks of different security levels in an encrypted, logged and policy-controlled way. Beyond traditional transfer features, it passes every file through multiscanning, Deep CDR, DLP and, where needed, sandbox checks.

Core Capabilities

Security combined with transfer: Malicious or sensitive content is stopped before it reaches the target system.

Approvals and role-based access: Approval flows and detailed audit logs bring manual SFTP processes under control.

Cross-network transfer: Data exchange between IT, OT, cloud and air-gapped networks is standardised.

Benefits for Organisations

Operational file transfer continues while the risk of malicious content and data leakage falls, and the question of who sent what, when and to whom can always be answered.
