THE IMPORTANCE OF MANAGED FILE TRANSFER
We live in an impatient world. People expect to send and receive data anywhere, any
time, on any device. When they cant, its a problem. So are data security, audit trails,
and preventing breaches. IT Professionals know this. At Attachmate, we feel their pain.
81%
53%
of senior IT managers surveyed ranked MFT as an important or very important
issue driving anticipated improvements with trading partners
of surveyed European companies say security is their greatest data transfer
challenge
CLOUDY WITH A SIDE OF UH-OH
This is the fastest-growing part of the managed
file transfer market... and IT has to deal with the
backlash of non-IT coworkers using these
non-secure services
FTP is an option, but its hard to use. So now
company data is AWOL on cloud-based servers.
Its awesome to drag files into a cloud-based
folder and know that your file-sharing buddy
can view them instantly... but who ELSE can
view them?
AND THEYRE MOVING 1B FILES EVERY DAY. (THATS MORE FILES THAN TWEETS! #OMG)
USER-CENTRIC FILE TRANSFER GROWTH
Consumer demand for these services
isnt the only thing exploding: the woeful
lack of security features might blow up
your business, too

HOMEBREW FILE TRANSFER
 ACTUALLY NOT CHEAPER
Homegrown FTPs can cost 10x more than standardized solutions

53%
of surveyed IT managers say that FTP and other
legacy data transfer systems dont live up to
current security standards
Initial development isnt the last time youll need access to the code...
so once your developer is MIA, youre SOL*
Doug inherited the file transfer tool his coworker coded on a long weekend
But the coder left for a meditation retreat in Nepal, then sent a
postcard saying that hes finally achieved total consciousness
Looks like hes never coming back. Aaaand, sure enough, he left behind
almost no documentation. How is Doug going to manage this process now?
*So out of luck
LOST ATTACHMENTS AND OTHER MAIL FAILS
Looks like there'll be no playtime with Daddy Doug tonight. Hes
been re-prioritized to solve an urgent file transfer problem.
73% of emails bounced for file size are sent to IT to deliver
IT wishes it was 27%
22% of emails have attachments, but those attachments
make up 90% of the bits in your email system
4 OF THE 5 TOP EMAIL MANAGEMENT ISSUES ARE ALL ABOUT FILE TRANSFER/STORAGE
Increased backup/restore times
Increased message size
Lack of disk space for messages
Overloaded/full mailboxes

As Doug steps through his front door, the Chief Marketing Officer calls, panicked  the creatives for tomorrow's
ad campaign launch are stuck on the mail server. 14 full mailboxes and 6 too-large attachments (again)!

DATA SECURITY. NOT!

breach (2011)
Its happened  CISO Ben is called in early on
Friday to address last nights breach of customer
financial data
With no ability to track who shares what files
with whom (you know: coworkers, clients,
hackers...), Doug cant determine where the
failure occurred
The good vibes of the impending weekend have
given way to panic, as Ben fears that a lack of file
transfer security is threatening his job security
Now Ben and Doug are completely unavailable
to help the company with other critical priorities
Now Ben has Doug poring over server logs,
looking for the source of the breach
UNAVAILABLE
CSI: AUDIT TRAIL
Ben worries his job will be at stake as he
reviews the paperwork detailing their fines.
Its definitely time to makes some changes
around here
Amidst all of the confusion, the company
undergoes an audit  and fails
56%
of IT decision-makers
are worried about their
ability to comply with
audit requirements
