Education

Use secure FTPS and SFTP protocols to transfer and store files in the Cloud. Setup departmental folders for specific contents and provide restricted access privileges for each individual user.

The Challenge

Using FTP, FTPS, and SFTP, educational institutions need the ability to provide faculty, staff, students and other institutions a secure way to share research papers, submit assignments and have a simple means to isolate different departments, courses, and curriculums. Using Hosted FTP will integrate your data infrastructure in the Cloud avoiding physical on-premise hardware, freeing up internal bandwidth, and reducing costs to hire maintenance staff.
