Managed File Transfer Automation (MFTA) employs JSCAPE to provide secure and automated data file transfers that support many of Cornell’s business processes. It is generally used for scheduled machine-to-machine file transfers but not limited to that setup.
Accounts are managed and configured to be directional or bidirectional. Once a file is uploaded, it will be moved to a download folder. The sender will no longer have access to the file once it moves. Files will be automatically deleted after 30 days.
MFTA is different from Cornell Secure File Transfer in several ways. MFTA is:
- Designed based on configured account pairs (1:1)
- Not Cornell NetID driven
- Not limited to 5 GB file size
- Not restricted by the number of files uploaded, nor by time of day
SFTP is the main file transfer protocol used, though SCP is also supported.
