MetaDefender Managed File Transfer

Security-First File Transfer with Policy Enforcement Across Users & Systems

Secure file transfers by detecting and neutralizing file-borne threats. Ensure seamless, secure collaboration between productivity tools and internal and external users.

  • Ensure Advanced Security Protection
    Metascan™ Multiscanning, with up to 30 anti-malware engines, along with Deep CDR protect against malware and zero-day file-based attacks. Sandbox technology provides real-time analysis and monitoring to detect unknown threats and prevent zero-day exploits.
  • Encrypt from End-to-End
    Using TLS 1.3 and AES-256, your data stays secure both in transit and at rest, eliminating data vulnerabilities due to a lack of encryption.
  • Safeguard File Trust
    With our checksum algorithm, you can detect data tampering and ensure file integrity by verifying any changes over time, which is critical for maintaining trust and security during file transfers.

  • File Transfer Automation & Jobs
    Streamline operations by scheduling MFT jobs with customizable file-routing logic. This reduces workflow inefficiencies caused by non-integrated tools like CRMs, financial apps, and collaboration tools.
  • File Transfer Initiation
    Automated jobs can be triggered by schedule, logic, or on-demand events.
  • Secure Collaboration
    Custom user groups and shared workspaces streamline internal-external collaboration.
  • Transfer Policy Framework
    The Transfer Policy framework (for MFT-to-MFT transfers) ensures that files are synchronized between low-security and high-security environments only if they meet predefined security and metadata-based criteria.
  • Logic-Based Filter Policies
    Customizable rules determine file movement based on transfer conditions, such as filename, file size, type, group membership, Active Directory or Entra ID group attributes, and content-based dynamic routing.
  • Metadata-Based File Transfers
    Routing decisions are made using content analysis results. For example, after analyzing a file by identifying and classifying unstructured text into predefined categories using AI, a file labeled with the property “Priority=High” would only be transferred to high-security destinations if explicitly allowed by the applicable transfer policy.

  • Centralize File Management
    A single pane of glass provides a clear view of all files, folders, and sharing activities which reduces business disruption caused by file sharing between silos.
  • Workflow Tracking
    Managing file transfer automation in real-time provides visibility into all file movements, including scheduled jobs. In this way, inefficiencies stemming from a lack of oversight into traditional manual file transfers are addressed.
  • Streamline Operations
    Monitoring user actions, file changes, and access logs ensures complete visibility. Detailed audit trails for regulatory compliance deliver what fragmented systems fail to provide.
  • Drag & Drop File Upload
    Experience seamless drag-and-drop uploads into directories or folders. Easily manage large file sets and move them effortlessly between folders

  • Access Controls & Authentication
    Supports Active Directory, SSO and Multi-Factor Authentication adds an extra layer of security to address both unauthorized access and the security officer’s needs.
  • Role-Based Access Control
    Enable role-based permissions for users, coordinators, and administrators to prevent unauthorized data access and potential security breaches.
  • Supervisor Approval Workflow
    Enforce single or multi-stage approvals before file access. Supervisors can review, approve, or deny requests, preventing unauthorized transfers and supporting compliance—even in external file sharing.
  • Data Loss Prevention
    The integrated proactive DLP scans 110+ file types using AI and OCR to detect sensitive or offensive content, enforce redaction policies, and block unauthorized sharing.
  • Complete Activity Logging
    Generate detailed audit logs and reports while seamlessly integrating with SIEM platforms such as Splunk. Track data access and activities to avoid violations and security breaches.
  • Compliance-Ready
    MetaDefender MFT adheres to HIPAA, GDPR, NIS2, PCI, FISMA, and NIST standards with AES-256 encryption and TLS 1.3. This helps to prevent organizations from incurring monetary, reputational, or other kinds of damages.
