What is Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT?
Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT is a secure file transfer solution that automates and encrypts data using industry standard protocols (e.g. OpenPGP, SFTP, HTTPS). With auditing and reporting, GoAnywhere can help organizations meet compliance regulations like PCI DSS and HIPAA.
GoAnywhere can be deployed on-premises or in the cloud. As a VMware-validated product, it also runs in several virtualized environments including VMware, Amazon AWS, and Microsoft Azure. GoAnywhere exchanges batch and ad-hoc file transfers, executes tasks before and/or after transfers, and gives users and partners a secure way to exchange data. The vendor provides MFTaaS deployment to give users an easy way to transfer files while Fortra takes care of the setup, infrastructure management, and backups, all for an expected flat fee.
