AON’s Human Capital division needed a better way to automate their data transfer processes. They wanted a simple yet flexible system that didn’t require customization to adapt to growing needs. They wanted to consolidate their sensitive data transfers and ensure the security of this data and to provide integration with current workflow and key legacy applications. AON deployed the GlobalSCAPE EFT (Enhanced File Transfer) server. Using this software allowed AON to achieve all these goals and to reduce 15 servers down to 4, save $200,000 per year on software licenses and $84,000 on annual maintenance all while serving up to 600 users. Event rules not only replaced customization but also moved data into the work flow automatically. Security and regulatory compliance were both significantly increased due to EFT’s broad support for secure protocols and encryption. Every transaction was tracked from start to finish and remarkably it was all completed in 7 working days. GlobalSCAPE’s products allow companies to move, store and share files securely over the Internet. GlobalSCAPE provides a flexible, modular solution to allow companies to expand functionality as needs grow.
- EFT server provides secure protocol support and encryption to protect data in transit and at rest, automation to move data to where it is needed and non-repudiation to guarantee delivery and receipt.
- WAFS provides critical data to branch offices while maintaining central control. Byte level differencing reduces network traffic and bandwidth costs by sending just the file changes and file locking ensures users work on the most recent data. The local mirrored files provide fast access even during a wan outage. |
