Ipswitch Launches New WS_FTP Server with Person-to-Person File Sharing Capabilities

LEXINGTON, Mass. -- (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Ipswitch, Inc., the leading developer of comprehensive secure and managed file transfer solutions, today released WS_FTP Server 7.5 – giving businesses new ability to encrypt, control, authenticate and manage files moving inside and outside of their organizations.

Wide-spread data breaches, regulatory compliance and corporate governance requirements make it difficult for IT departments to find the right balance between protecting and managing critical data – and providing employees with the access and information-sharing flexibility they need to effectively do their jobs.

Until now – file transfer solutions have focused almost solely on security – overlooking the critical need for end-to-end visibility, management and policy enforcement around sensitive data, such as credit card information, health records and sales intelligence.

“We’re setting a new standard for information sharing by giving organizations the visibility and controls they need, while making it easier than ever for employees to securely share files of any size – both internally and externally,” said Jonathan Lampe, Vice President of Product Management, Ipswitch File Transfer.

WS_FTP Server’s new Ad Hoc Transfer module lets organizations:

• Quickly and securely share files through Microsoft Outlook or a Web browser
• Oversee and manage all file-sharing activities, internally and externally
• Create and enforce file transfer and file sharing policies
• Increase productivity by simplifying how files are shared
• Eliminate the “file attachment” burden from the email server

WS_FTP Server 7.5 and the new Ad Hoc Transfer module are immediately available. For more information on the solutions, please visit the Ipswitch File Transfer website or join one of the following webinars:
