  • Bargain Retailer finds GoAnywhere Really “Delivers the Goods” | GSA

    < Case Studies Bargain Retailer finds GoAnywhere Really “Delivers the Goods” Decades of experience helping Asia-Pacific customers have established Generic Systems Australia as our region’s local experts in secure managed file transfer. In this case study, we share how a US retailer is leveraging both robustness and advanced features of GoAnywhere MFT , the world’s leading MFT solution . Grocery Outlet is a chain of more than 300 family-owned deep-discount grocery stores based in Berkeley, California. The retailer helps more than 1.5 million shoppers each week save big, making it the US’s largest extreme value retailer. Homegrown: Good for Produce; Not for File Transfers Steve Tuscher is the Director of IT at Grocery Outlet, overseeing technology which manages more than 33,000 file transfers each day. “We had always transferred files between our systems with homegrown FTP scripts,” he said, “but knew we needed a better solution. Writing the scripts for these transfers was time consuming. However, the real challenge the IT team faced was tracking down what happened if a file exchange failed. The grocer primarily wanted to send files back and forth reliably and in a controlled manner. They also sought a solution that included error reporting functionality that was platform independent, as they exchange files with multiple vendors, suppliers, and other trading partners daily. “One of our vendors suggested a file transfer tool but it was priced out at US$100,000, and we didn't want to do that,” said Steve. “We knew of GoAnywhere Managed File Transfer (MFT) because they'd been in the AS400 (IBM i) world for a couple decades at least, the same as we have been. So we thought we'd give GoAnywhere MFT a shot. He added: “It's been a great product. It worked from day one and it's worked ever since.” Bargain Retailer Gets Money’s Worth While GoAnywhere does the heavy lifting on the large volume of daily files transferred, Steve discovered another surprising benefit of GoAnywhere MFT — managing the many emails the company received and creating a reporting system for them as well. “After we learned that GoAnywhere could retrieve mail from an Exchange mailbox, we developed an automated script to do that. It checks for incoming mail every three seconds and launches a job based on if there's new mail on the IBMi. We then take that request, run another job, then return the email with a report. It's a handy little reporting system that's very popular,” he said. GoAnywhere not only provides users a way to simplify and secure their file transfers, keeping sensitive data secure both at rest and in motion, it also helps retailers meet relevant security and compliance regulations, with auditing and reporting functionality, as well as strong encryption and security protocols. “All the other extras that came with it, and all of the ways we're using GoAnywhere now have been a bonus,” said Steve. In particular, he called out the solution’s scripting language. “The robustness of that language has been a real surprise – a pleasant surprise,” he said. GoAnywhere’s ease-of-use, and ability to manage the many file transfers occurring each day without the need to write homemade FTP scripts enables Grocery Outlet’s IT team to spend their time on more critical, and less manually intensive tasks. Improved Workflows and Partner Relations Grocery Outlet extracts much of its data from FTP scripts. With GoAnywhere, the previously complex process now runs unattended every night. “It's been great. Just having the ability to run an FTP script to get data, zip it up, and send it somewhere has been phenomenal,” Steve said. The GoAnywhere solution saves Grocery Outlet’s IT team time in two ways: problem resolution and eliminating the problems all together. “Typically, you'd copy some script and create a new script, and it would generally run. The problem is that when it wouldn't run, you wouldn't find out about it until it was too late, or until people were waiting for their orders or in a crisis. “The real time saving in GoAnywhere is that it basically never fails. That thing is rock solid. I can't remember the last time we had a failure due to GoAnywhere. If there's a failure, it's because the receiving side is down or not available.” With GoAnywhere quickly replacing all internal FTP scripts, the grocer transformed their data delivery across all their business partners and all internal systems. Steve noted his surprise at being able to do so as quickly and as easily as they did. The biggest surprise for the company, however, was how they use the email retrieval function. “That has been a huge homerun application for being able to request and report on your phone, and have it delivered back to your phone, like a sales report, within seconds. The response time is amazing! Literally within seconds you’re able to get a nicely formatted HTML email report on your phone, no matter where you are, via GoAnywhere. That has been great,” Steve said. He said he tried to stay up to date on updates to GoAnywhere, so that Grocery Outlet could take advantage of new features. Quick ROI Steve is enthusiastic in his recommendation of GoAnywhere, exclaiming: “It will be the easiest implementation you've ever had. It will be the best value of software that you've ever had. And you'll be sorry if you do not explore this package.” Previous Next

  • BEST PRACTICES FOR CLOUD MFT | GSA

    Best Practices for Cloud MFT Data is the lifeblood of modern business. And most modern organisations rely to some extent on the Cloud as they transfer files between employees, trading partners, and customers. However, permitting your precious data to go “off-prem” increases the risk it will be intercepted or accessed by cybercriminals. To help you guard against cybercrime, here are best practices for safeguarding your data on its way to, from and in, the Cloud. Start with the Right Cloud Provider Cloud providers come in all sizes, capabilities … and risk profiles. Ensure your Cloud provider uses robust security protocols and safeguards. Do they utilise the latest encryption protocols, and offer strong user authorisation and access controls? Do their data transmission and storage approaches meet the regulatory requirements for your industry? What performance levels does your Cloud provider commit to? Can they quickly and reliably receive, store and transmit your business-essential files? Can your Cloud provider easily integrate with your existing systems? Can your Cloud provider offer an appropriate level of technical support when you need it? Select the Right Type of Cloud Cloud computing comes in three basic flavours… Public, Private, and Hybrid. Each offers differing degrees of security and risk. 1. Public Clouds may offer relatively robust security features. However, they must be appropriately configured to offer protection for your files. 2. Private Clouds provide enhanced levels of control and isolation. However, these come at a higher cost. 3. Hybrid Clouds combine elements of both, enabling you to balance security and cost-efficiency. Meet Industry Compliance Requirements Some industries are subject to heightened regulatory requirements regarding data storage and transfer. Even when using an “off-prem” Cloud provider, you remain responsible for meeting those requirements. Failing to utilise an appropriately compliant Cloud environment can lead to fines, law suits, loss of customers, loss of supplier trust, and reputational damage. Maintain Control and Data Sovereignty Governments increasingly require organisations to maintain authority and control of data within their jurisdictional boundaries – aka, “data sovereignty”. Private and Hybrid Cloud environments provide inherently greater authority over where data is stored, access permissions, and retention policies. In this way, they enable organisations to better navigate myriad data sovereignty mandates and evolving compliance standards . Utilising Managed File Transfer as a Service (MFTaaS) MFTaaS is an approach which can help organisations streamline their file transfer processes, while offering robust security, scalability, reliability, anywhere access and cost-effectiveness. However, be sure to confirm your MFTaaS solution offers robust encryption and security protocols, can scale grow with your organisation's needs, and complies with the industry regulations relevant to your business. Technical Best Practices for Cloud File Transfers Ensure secure and efficient transmission of data in a Cloud environment by observing these technical requirements: 1. Data Encryption at Rest and in Transit : Utilise encryption protocols like SSL/TLS for data in transit and encryption solutions provided by your Cloud provider for data at rest. In private Cloud settings, you can also leverage approaches like Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) or Hold Your Own Key (HYOK). 2. Data Loss Prevention (DLP) : A robust DLP solution helps prevent unauthorised data transfers and leakage by monitoring data in real-time and preventing it from being transmitted outside of your organisation. 3. Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) : By monitoring and alerting IT security teams to any suspicious file transfer behaviour, IDS helps nip security breaches in the bud. Employee Best Practices Having your team follow best practices is also essential to secure data transfer and storage. 1. Staff Training : Teach your employees to recognise data security risks, and how to avoid them. Place special focus on phishing and social engineering – two of the most prevalent cybercriminal threats. 2. Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) : Enforce MFA for file transfers, and utilise phishing-resistant techniques. 3. Access Control : Restrict access to files and systems, and provide users with only the minimum level of access necessary to perform their role. Implement a regular cycle of access permission reviews. Audit, Backup and Recovery Best Practices Continuous monitoring and auditing of Cloud file transfers not only maintains the security of your data, it also helps identify and mitigate potential threats, while monitoring on-going compliance. Log Analysis and Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) proactively monitor transfers, and enable your IT team to react quickly to emerging threats and incidents. Data backup and disaster recovery are the final critical components of your comprehensive safeguards against data loss in Cloud file transfers. They ensure that, if a disaster occurs, your organisation can provide business continuity by maintaining the availability and integrity of data. Making the Cloud Safe for File Transfers By following these best practices, the Cloud can be an efficient, reliable and secure element within your organisation’s overall data transfer approach. At Generic Systems Australia, we use and recommend the class-leading (link) managed file transfer solution, GoAnywhere MFT, for the way it integrates with the Cloud and embeds best practices. Providing peace of mind, by securing sensitive files in transit and at rest, GoAnywhere automates and encrypts data between an organisation and its trading partners, protecting it from unnecessary vulnerabilities while improving efficiency and reducing costs.

  • Protect your data from AI’s insatiable appetite | GSA

    < News Protect your data from AI’s insatiable appetite 14 Apr 2026 AI-driven scrapers harvest vast amounts of web content to train models, often without consent. This can erode revenue, expose proprietary and private information, and create security risks as bots probe forms, logins, and APIs. Unchecked scraping not only risks your valuable business intelligence and intellectual property, it also fuels downstream misuse of your content and customer data. More serious than lost page views and duplicated content inhibiting SEO, AI scraping can lead to privacy breaches and automated attacks that exploit exposed endpoints. Legal remedies are slow! Technical controls should be your first line of defence. How to protect your site and data • Audit and classify sensitive endpoints such as forms, APIs, and subscriber content. • Harden access with authenticated APIs, strict Cross-Origin Resource Sharing, and robust rate limits. • Use bot management and Content Delivery Networks that detect behaviour-based scraping and block suspicious traffic at the edge. • Deploy CAPTCHAs, honeypots, and fingerprinting to distinguish humans from automated agents. • Monitor and respond with IP blocking, anomaly alerts, and takedown processes when misuse is discovered. Add MFT to your Defences Managed File Transfer (MFT) provides a secure, auditable channel for moving files and sensitive data between systems and partners. MFT platforms, such as the industry-leading GoAnywhere MFT , offer end-to-end encryption, role-based access, detailed audit trails, and automated workflows that reduce ad-hoc file sharing. They can close common gaps that scrapers and opportunistic bots exploit. Modern MFT solutions also simplify compliance with regulations by centralising transfer policies and logging, and they outperform legacy FTP/SFTP setups by adding visibility and automated validation. For organisations handling high volumes of sensitive transfers, MFT reduces risk while improving operational reliability and incident response. Layer IT Up Protecting content in the AI era requires layers: legal notices and copyright may help, but technical controls - rate limits, bot detection, continuous monitoring, and secure transfer platforms like MFT - stop most AI scrapers before they can create a problem. Start with a risk inventory and add MFT everywhere that file movement is business-critical.

  • Why It’s Worth Migrating to a Better MFT | GSA

    < News Why It’s Worth Migrating to a Better MFT 9 Dec 2025 Is your existing Managed File Transfer (MFT) solution failing to keep pace with modern security, efficiency and budgetary needs? Companies whose existing MFT solution no longer meets modern security, compliance, or usability needs should consider trading up to the world’s leading MFT solution, GoAnywhere MFT . GoAnywhere MFT makes migration straightforward with dedicated tools and services. The Case to Replace Organisations rely on Managed File Transfer to securely exchange sensitive data with partners, customers, and internal systems. However, some legacy solutions struggle to keep pace with today’s demands. Common reasons for replacement include: Volume Pricing Gotchas: some MFTs lure customers with seemingly low initial prices, only to rapidly increase costs as the number of users, or the amount and size of transfers, increase. Budgeting becomes difficult as their MFT licence grows ever more costly. Security Gaps: Some MFT tools lack advanced encryption, secure protocols, or modern authentication methods, leaving organisations exposed to cyber threats. New Compliance Requirements: Increasing government and industry regulation requires auditable, automated file transfer processes. Some MFT systems fall short in providing detailed logging and compliance reporting. Inefficiencies: Maintaining outdated solutions can be costly, requiring manual scripting and complex workarounds. This slows down IT teams and increases the risk of human error. Inadequate Scalability: As businesses grow, file transfer volumes increase. Legacy solutions may not scale effectively, leading to bottlenecks and downtime. Poor User Experience: Modern enterprises expect intuitive interfaces and automation.

  • World Braces for Cyber Retaliation | GSA

    < News World Braces for Cyber Retaliation 3 Mar 2026 Cyber security tensions are rising globally following the joint US–Israel strikes on Iran and the assassination of its supreme leader. Security analysts are warning that digital retaliation is already taking shape, with Iranian-aligned hacking groups mobilising, and critical infrastructure operators across multiple regions bracing for disruptive cyberattacks. Offensive cyber operations were a key part of the US and Israeli strikes that targeted Iran over the weekend, with critical infrastructure and media key targets. The Jerusalem Post described the cyberattack as the largest in history, and global internet monitoring firm NetBlocks said that Iranian internet activity has dropped to just one per cent of pre-attack levels. Ballistics and Binary While missiles and drones dominate news headlines, cyber operations offer Tehran a way to strike back asymmetrically - quietly, globally, and with potentially far‑reaching consequences. Security experts say the digital domain gives Iran a strategic avenue to pressure its adversaries. Interconnected critical infrastructure makes even small intrusions capable of triggering broader economic or safety impacts. Retaliation Strikes are already reshaping the threat landscape. Security analysts say they’ve observed reconnaissance activity and early-stage DDoS attacks from groups aligned with Iranian interests, indicating that a more aggressive campaign is being planned. CrowdStrike’s latest threat intelligence also highlights a shift in Iranian tactics toward cloud environments and identity‑based attacks, reflecting a steady evolution in capability. Historically, Iranian cyber operations have aligned closely with geopolitical objectives, targeting sectors such as energy, finance, telecommunications, healthcare, and other critical services. Analysts expect that pattern to continue as Tehran seeks to increase pressure and visibility on its chosen targets. Implications for Organisations The combination of geopolitical escalation, demonstrated offensive capability, and early signs of retaliatory activity suggests a volatile period ahead for governments and businesses alike. Operators of essential services - particularly those with regional ties or exposure - are being urged to strengthen monitoring, validate incident response plans, and prepare for potential spillover effects. Line of Defence State‑sponsored cyber operations increasingly target the systems that move, store, and validate sensitive information. This makes Managed File Transfer (MFT) a critical defensive control rather than a back‑office utility. Modern state actors operate with significant patience, resources, and strategic intent: they infiltrate supply chains, exploit unpatched interfaces, and quietly exfiltrate data to support espionage, political influence, or economic advantage. Government agencies have repeatedly warned that these actors use advanced tradecraft to compromise organisations across critical infrastructure and public institutions, as seen in advisories from the Australian Signals Directorate and its international partners. In this environment, any uncontrolled or ad‑hoc method of moving files - email attachments, unsecured cloud links, legacy FTP - becomes a soft target. MFT strengthens an organisation’s defensive posture by centralising, governing, and hardening all file‑based data flows. Instead of dozens of unmonitored channels, MFT provides a single, encrypted, policy‑driven platform with authentication, role‑based access, and full audit trails. This matters because state actors often exploit the weakest link in a distributed system, including overlooked transfer endpoints or poorly secured partner connections. Strategic Resilience When MFT is deployed correctly, it reduces the attack surface by eliminating shadow IT, enforcing encryption in transit and at rest, and providing the visibility needed to detect anomalies early - an essential capability when facing adversaries who specialise in stealth and persistence. Beyond technical controls, MFT also supports strategic resilience. State‑backed intrusions often aim to disrupt trust - undermining elections, destabilising supply chains, or eroding confidence in public institutions. Australia’s own experience with foreign interference highlights how attackers seek to manipulate or steal sensitive data to influence democratic processes. By ensuring that critical information moves through a secure, predictable, and fully auditable channel, MFT helps organisations maintain operational integrity even under sustained threat. It becomes not just a tool for secure transfer, but a foundational layer in a broader zero‑trust architecture - one that assumes compromise is possible and designs every data movement to be verifiable, controlled, and resilient.

  • Think Mutual Bank finds GoAnywhere to be “the Obvious Choice” | GSA

    < Case Studies Think Mutual Bank finds GoAnywhere to be “the Obvious Choice” Decad es of experience helping Asia-Pacific customers have established Generic Systems Australia as our region’s local experts in secure managed file transfer. In this case study, we share how GoAnywhere MFT , the world’s leading MFT solution , solved a US bank’s need to integrate with its external partners’ IT systems – extra fast! Think Mutual Bank, located in the US’s sprawling midwest, was searching for a way to transfer data between disparate banking systems. Although their core system runs on the IBMi, much of their broader business banking ecosystem runs on MS SQL. Getting all the data into the one place - their IBMi - then copying updated files back to the MS SQL system, was a daily challenge. Van Sy, Lead Systems Administrator at Think Mutual Bank, was tasked with finding a PCI DSS compliant solution – fast! Finding the Right Fit – Fast! Although Think Mutual Bank had a product that performed some of the functions they needed, Sy began a search for a product which offered greater functionality, and which could be implemented in the short timeframe he’d been given. As Sy explained: “We own another product that has some FTP functionality, but it doesn’t have the data push that we wanted. We wanted to be able to copy just certain fields from a SQL database over to the IBM i, and GoAnywhere does that, all in one package. "Due to our short timeline – literally, we were looking at just a month," he added. "We didn’t want or have time to do any coding ourselves, so GoAnywhere became the obvious choice.” Also key to the project’s success was a product whose technical resource staff were readily on hand to ensure the product was up and running when Think Bank needed it. “The support person I dealt with was very knowledgeable," Sy said. "Every time we had questions, he was there, and it really helped that he was very familiar with the product.” Planning for the Future A year on from the successful installation and transition to GoAnywhere MFT, Sy was planning to extend his use of the solution’s functionality. “We’ve been running GoAnywhere for about a year now, using the database push and the FTP functionality. In the short term, we’ll probably extend it out to other systems than just our business banking side. With GoAnywhere, it’s a secure FTP client, so I’ll be moving some of the older systems over to it.” Added Sy: “Most of the other solutions out there do one or two things, but not the whole package – that’s the reason we went with the GoAnywhere product. It really met all of our specific needs, with the database conversion, the database push and the secure FTP. So far, it’s been really solid.” Previous Next

  • R.I.P. FTP | GSA

    < News R.I.P. FTP 5 June 2026 Sysadmins have rung the death knell for File Transfer Protocol (FTP). Insecure, unmanageable at scale, and fundamentally incompatible with today’s compliance and automation expectations - FTP is no longer fit for purpose in modern enterprises. FTP's Flawed DNA Reddit discussions repeatedly highlight that FTP’s biggest flaw is baked into its DNA: no encryption. Credentials and data are exposed in clear text, making interception trivial. Many organisations now block it entirely due to risk. But beyond security, FTP simply can’t keep up with modern operational demands. It lacks audit trails, automation, and any meaningful governance. Even browsers like Chrome and Firefox have abandoned FTP because it no longer meets contemporary standards for speed, reliability, or security. Redditors also point out the operational drag: manual clean ups, unreliable synchronisation, and slow transfers that crumble under load. In 2026, FTP feels like using a butter knife as a screwdriver - technically possible, but reckless and outdated. While SFTP, FTPS, AS2, AS3/AS4 and HTTPS each address inherent weaknesses in FTP, there’s a better and more comprehensive solution which does all of that and also improves operational efficiency. The Rise of MFT Managed File Transfer (MFT) has emerged as a strong enterprise engine for file transfers because it addresses the problems FTP leaves on the table – and more. Leading MFTs, such as GoAnywhere MFT , provide: • End to end encryption and hardened protocols • Detailed audit logs for compliance-heavy industries • Automation that eliminates brittle scripting • Scalability for large, frequent, or complex transfers • Centralised governance across partners, systems, and business units GoAnywhere enables large HTTPS transfers, integrates with and automates business workflows, and provides a secure, user-friendly interface. By providing stronger security, compliance support, and operational efficiency than FTP ever could, MFT is the logical successor for enterprises that need reliability and visibility at scale. 86 FTP SysAdmins are right. FTP isn’t just old - it’s unsafe, unscalable, and ungovernable. Modern enterprises need secure, automated, auditable file movement. MFT is the responsible path forward.

  • Why has Managed File Transfer become a “Must-Have”? | GSA

    < News Why has Managed File Transfer become a “Must-Have”? 6 July 2026 The rise and rise of interconnected business and cloud data storage has made it more challenging than ever for organisations to secure their electronic perimeters. It’s no longer enough to monitor on-premise systems and internal networks. For the value of data to be unlocked, it must be active.  However, the very act of transmitting your valued data exposes it to increased risk of interception, hijack and exploitation. Any electronic exchange with business partners, suppliers and customers is at risk. Storing and retrieving data with cloud providers further exacerbates that risk. Cyber Crime Wave In 2024, cybercrime cost Australian organisations an average $4.2M per breach, a significant increase from previous years. Small businesses reported an average cost of $49,600 per cybercrime incident, while individuals reported losses averaging $30,700. The Australian Signals Directorate (ASD) received over 87,000 cybercrime reports during the year. It’s generally easier to build cyber security defences around static, on-premise data. However, that leaves the majority of business data interactions vulnerable. This is where a Managed File Transfer (MFT) solution – enabling more secure and more efficient data sharing – plays a crucial role. MFT in the Defensive Line MFT protects the movement of messages, data and files inside and outside of an organisation. And as a bonus, it also makes that movement more efficient and reliable, outpacing and outperforming applications such as file transfer protocol (FTP), hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP), and secure file transfer protocol (SFTP). When you consider the advantages MFT offers modern, data-driven enterprises, it’s unsurprising that its popularity continues to surge past its 2024 estimated global value of $12.6B. Encryption : MFT employs robust encryption algorithms, reducing the risk of data breaches during transit. Features like Access Controls, and Multi-factor Authentication, safeguard sensitive information from unauthorised access. Efficiency : MFT automates repetitive tasks. This not only reduces human error, it saves significant employee time. Through scheduling of file transfers, monitoring of progress, and automatic error-handling, it enables a significant boost to operational efficiency. Compliance : In industries with strict regulatory requirements, MFT helps companies meet compliance standards (e.g. HIPAA and GDPR) by automatically maintaining detailed logs and audit trails. Scalability : Through its ability to handle large file transfers and an ever-growing number of users, MFT is able to grow in sync with an organisation's needs, while maintaining superior performance. Collaboration : In addition to improving business processes within an organisation, MFT facilitates seamless collaboration with external partners, suppliers, and customers, fostering strong relationships built on shared trust and reliability.
