Frequently Asked Questions

What protocols does Managed File Transfer support?
We support SFTP, FTP, FTPS, SMB and S3-compatible storage. Each protocol can be configured with custom port numbers, timeouts and connection pooling.
How is data encrypted?
Data in transit is protected with TLS 1.3 and SFTP native encryption. PGP and AES-256 encryption is available for data at rest, with optional customer-managed key management.
Can I validate file formats before processing?
Yes. We support XML Schema (XSD), JSON Schema, and custom validation rules. Failed validations can trigger alerts, rejections or custom error handling.
Do you support automatic retries?
Absolutely. Automatic retry with exponential backoff is built in. You can also manually replay transfers from the audit log.
Can I schedule transfers?
Yes. Use cron expressions for time-based scheduling, or set up event-driven triggers based on file arrival, database changes or API webhooks.
What about monitoring and alerting?
Real-time dashboards, transfer history, custom alerts and Grafana integration are all built in. You get complete visibility into every transfer.
