Secure file transfer software ensures safe and secure data transfer throughout the network between sources and destinations, such as applications, business partners, and file servers. Using a managed file transfer service, files can be exchanged in a secure and transparent manner with monitoring, global visibility, end-to-end security, and tracking. Regardless of file volume, file size, or complexity, the system moves data efficiently and securely, thus protecting proprietary and confidential data during transit. It is commonly used as a replacement for file transfer protocols like hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) and file transfer protocol (FTP). Managed file transfer software is widely used in many industries, including retail and consumer packaged goods (CPG), media and entertainment, IT and telecommunications, banking, financial services and insurance (BFSI), and the public sector. Key players in the global secure file transfer market are focusing on improving the security of their services by including passwords or SMS-generated pins to access the files stored on the server.

Secure File Transfer Market Trends:

The market is majorly driven by the augmenting need for secure file transfer systems facilitating automation and end-to-end monitoring of file transfer across numerous end-use industries. This can be attributed to the rising cyber-attacks and security threats faced by businesses due to a fierce competitive environment. With the increase in remote working models, the demand for secure file transfer solutions has increased to avoid data leakages and information breaches, thereby fueling the market. The use of software-as-a-service (SaaS) in the enterprise environment is contributing to the ease of integrating and deploying hybrid solutions, which is resulting in a higher product uptake. Also, rapid digitalization of enterprise business environments leading to the growing adoption of cloud-based collaboration platforms is providing an impetus to the market. Moreover, the increasing data volumes are encouraging SMEs to adopt secure file transfer protocols that include security and integration features. Additionally, the emergence of advanced technologies, such as Big Data and the internet of things (IoT), is propelling the demand for secure file transfer solutions among large enterprise customers over the forecast period. Some of the other factors contributing to the market include stringent government regulations regarding data privacy, incorporation of private cloud environment offering multi-factor authentication, growing complexity of enterprise operations, and extensive research and development (R&D) activities.
