How
is SureDeliver™
different from File Transfer Protocol (FTP)?
FTP is a file transfer protocol that can be used for sending/receiving
files. However it does not provide security (e.g., encryption
and two-way authentication) or reliability (e.g., once and
only once delivery) features. Also, FTP is primarily intended
for manual uploads/downloads of data. SureDeliver™
is intended for automated, encrypted, authenticated, and
reliable file transfers.
How
is SureDeliver™
different from Email?
Email provides an easy method for transfering files or data,
but this mode of file transfers does not provide security
(e.g., encryption and two-way authentication) or reliability
(e.g., once and only once delivery) features. Also, Email
is intended for manual sending of data. SureDeliver™
is intended for automated, encrypted, authenticated, and
reliable file transfers.
How
is SureDeliver™
different from Virtual Private Network (VPN) solutions?
VPN solutions are typically used to provide encrypted channels
over public networks for the purpose of supporting user
sessions over such channels. VPN solutions are typically
not geared towards automated B2B file transfers across public
networks.
