These days everyone sends and receives files over the internet. Whether you are in the US, the EU or somewhere else entirely, using a secure FTP service is one way to transfer files. GDPR throws in a curveball.
FTP does not read, monitor or check files to determine the country of residence for any personal data being transferred. This is where understanding GDPR compliance and file sharing can be a little tricky.
Using hosted FTP means your files are secure without the need to host and maintain your own server. You can save money and time while you focus on your business. Leave the technical worries behind.
After deciding on a solution for worry-free FTP storage, what about online access for business file sharing? Well, a secure FTP service with a web interface can provide just that. Take your mobile device or desktop and login to your account. Many services allow you to enforce complex passwords, use SFTP connections, whitelist IP addresses, and even manage user permissions from any device. Let’s call it Web FTP.
FTP is still a reliable and fast way to send large files.
Now as long as your hosted FTP service provider has done their due diligence with GDPR compliance, data security shouldn’t be a worry.
With a Privacy Shield Certification, care in getting consent to collect personal data and enterprise-grade security, your search might lead you to ExaVault. These are just three examples of things to look for in a secure FTP service.
GDPR focuses on personal data security, but a secure FTP service is more than that. You trust your FTP service to comply with security and GDPR regulations while also providing the file sharing features you want to keep your business running.
In conclusion, you want an FTP service that is both secure and GDPR compliant.
