Mini FAQ
| Question | Secure File Transfer Appliance response |
|---|---|
| How big files can I send? | You can transfer files up to 2 Gb in size using a normal browser. All recent browsers are supported. |
| Is it secure? | Yes, it's secure. The Filetransfer appliance uses strong SSL encryption to transfer all files and utilizes cryptographically strong random numbers to prevent brute force attacks. |

restrictions on who can send files. The default configuration will allow your users
to send files securely everywhere. Everyone else (customers, providers, ...) can only send files to you. You can of course change this on an individual user basis as required. |

perspective. No one can claim that they didn't get the file when you have a time-stamped receipt of when it happened — often called non-repudiation. |

What others are saying
Few products on the market exceed my expectations and with this appliance I had a return on my investment the very first time I used it. The appliance not only delivers exactly what it is designed to do but the forethought that has gone into its ongoing development is as a direct result of the developer listening to the needs and desires of the clients who use it.
There is no other product of this type that I have found that is such a cost
effective solution with the outstanding personal support offered.
Install — Try — Then Buy ... you wont be dissapointed.
