- Sound Advice on Choosing a New MFT | GSA
< News Sound Advice on Choosing a New MFT 7 May 2024 Tech Wire Asia , an independent tech news website that covers enterprise and technology across the Asia-Pacific region, offers sound advice to help companies choose a new Managed File Transfer (MFT) solution. The Shadow of Clop Tech Wire Asia issued their advice in the wake of attacks last year by Clop, a notorious ransomware group, on the online file transfer tool MOVEit. PWC’s Australian unit, Prudential Assurance Malaysia Berhad and Prudential BSN Takaful Berhad in Malaysia were among APAC region victims of Clop’s attacks. While Tech Wire Asia said it did not “insinuate an everlasting vulnerability in MOVEit or imply that its usage should be permanently discontinued”, it noted that it had received “a wave of enquiries from current and prospective customers about the continued safety of using MOVEit” in the wake of the attack. In response, the website offered this advice for those wishing to move on from MOVEit . Crucial Considerations Tech Wire Asia said the crucial consideration in choosing the best file transfer software is finding an MFT solution that is simple, capable of encrypting sensitive data, can automate transfers, meets compliance regulations, and operates seamlessly across various platforms. It noted that there are many aspects and features to consider while choosing MFT software, including: Average daily file transfer volume; Regulatory obligations; Industry-specific needs; and Budget. Other vital features could include: Advanced auditing and tracking abilities; Clustering functionality; Cloud integrations; Capability to translate EDI files; and Availability of remote agents. The website recommended that selecting the appropriate MFT solution should be driven by a company’s specific requirements. GoAnywhere MFT highly-regarded In its review of contenders to replace MOVEit, Tech Wire Asia described GoAnywhere MFT as “a sophisticated enterprise solution for transfers and file management”, saying that the product “excels at securing file transfers across multiple platforms, protocols, and encryption standards”. The website noted that GoAnywhere is designed for SMEs and Enterprises, and is deployable on-premise, in the cloud, or hybrid environments, enabling secure data exchange between organisations, employees, customers, and trading partners. In the capacity of enterprise-secure file transfer software, GoAnywhere shields data, ensuring compliance with regulations and standards. Its integration prowess also extends to applications like Salesforce and SharePoint. Try Before You Buy In conclusion, Tech Wire Asia “highly recommended” that customers moving on from MOVEit take advantage of a free trial of new MFT software. Previous Next
- Tame the File Transfer Time Sink | GSA
< News Tame the File Transfer Time Sink 23 Oct 2023 When asked “How could you get more done at work?”, most people are quick to respond: “Fewer meetings, please!” However, research has revealed that other hidden time sinks may be an even greater drain on our personal productivity. For example: the amount of time lost while team members manually share files and data between themselves. A recent report found that a typical desk worker now uses 11 different applications to complete their tasks. during the course of their working day. According to research by Productiv , most company departments use between 40 and 60 different applications. Company-wide, that number sprawls to more than 200 apps. IT tools are designed to enhance our collaboration and productivity. But when different parts of a business adopt different tools, with different file formats, it opens up a black hole of time-wasting file translation and transference across the entire organisation. So, how can we help our employees spend more time productively contributing to the organisation, and less time on the drudge work of wrangling files…? Ideally, we can work to rein in the proliferation of apps across our organisations, standardising on a common set of enterprise IT tools. But that can be easier said than done. It takes time – and even some business risk – to wean teams off their familiar tools and train them on new ones. Until then, a Managed File Transfer (MFT) solution can help . With GoAnywhere MFT, data can be translated to and from a variety of widely-used formats without having to write cumbersome scripts or programs. Its comprehensive Extract, Transform, and Load features enable data values to be mapped, formatted and modified between source and target files automatically. Even better, GoAnywhere's secure collaboration features make connecting and sharing between employees easier and faster - even when they’re mobile. Features include an intuitive browser-based web client for performing ad-hoc file transfers, enterprise file sync and sharing using GoDrive, and a handy mobile application for moving files quickly while on-the-go. The benefits of using an advanced MFT like GoAnywhere continue well beyond the point where your team has happily standardised on common enterprise tools. The same flexibility and automations that enabled your team to eliminate their internal productivity time sink are just as useful in improving your interactions with customers and supply chain partners. Time to Tame This Time Sink?

- 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
- How MFT Monitors and Protects Your Organisation’s Vulnerable Edge Devices | GSA
< News How MFT Monitors and Protects Your Organisation’s Vulnerable Edge Devices 11 Mar 2025 The Australian Signals Directorate (ASD) has urged Australian organisations to ensure they employ effective logging and monitoring to detect potential threats on network edge devices. Edge Devices Edge devices are critical network components positioned at the periphery of an organisation’s internal network (i.e. "the edge"). They’re the critical interface between the organisation and the internet, performing essential functions such as managing data traffic, enforcing security policies and enabling seamless communication across network boundaries. The most common edge devices across enterprise networks include enterprise routers, firewalls and VPN concentrators. Every organisation with a connection to the internet has at least one edge device. Edge Vulnerability Because edge devices they can access other assets on the organisation’s network, they’re an appealing target for cyber criminals. Failing to secure them is like leaving a door open from the internet to internal networks. Once inside, hackers can access sensitive data and disrupt business operations. As they perform their important task in the background, it can be easy to overlook the security vulnerabilities that edge devices present. And the more edge devices an organisation uses, the greater the potential “threat surface”, and the greater challenge for IT staff to keep them secure. Compromised edge devices can lead to data loss, intellectual property loss, financial loss, business disruption, reputational damage and legal liabilities. Maintaining The Edge The ASD says that, to protect their edge devices, organisations should focus on: • capturing high-quality logs • centralising logging in real time, and • securing event log storage. Automated Logs, Auditing and Reporting Managed File Transfer (MFT) technology has a key role to play in monitoring data transfers, both within an organisation and to the outside world. Leading MFT solutions such as GoAnywhere MFT automatically compile comprehensive audit reports of file transfer activity. All file transfer activity is securely stored and easily searched. Reports and alerts can be automatically emailed to cyber security staff, who can instantly check files are only being sent where they should go, and by people appropriately authorised to send and receive them. Further, any organisations required to report on file transfer activity can use GoAnywhere’s logs to comply with their industry’s cyber regulations. Heeding the ASD’s Advice At Generic Systems Australia, we have decades of experience helping Australian and New Zealand organisations take advantage of the security and efficiency that MFT provides. And our Migration Service makes the transition even easier for busy businesses who’d rather spend their time focusing on their customers than their IT systems. If you’d like a no-cost, no-obligation discussion about how we could help you simply and affordably adopt an advanced MFT solution, please feel welcome to get in touch . Previous Next
- SES Encrypts and Audits Global Client Data | GSA
< Case Studies SES Encrypts and Audits Global Client Data 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 global experts in operational resilience – SES – take advantage of GoAnywhere MFT , the world’s leading MFT solution , to manage the transfer of more than 2,000 files daily. Software escrow agreements are becoming increasingly common for organisations worldwide. Medium and large enterprises, especially those in retail, energy, and financing, rely on these agreements to provide coverage for the unique source code, files, and other software assets critical to a company’s intellectual property. To prevent loss of this information during sudden downtime, a data breach, or natural disaster, organisations create a software escrow agreement with a third-party vendor to protect and back up their data. The third party then takes the data, creates an inventory of everything that’s to be escrowed, and puts the source code and other assets into a vault for maximum protection. SES is a third-party vendor that provides software escrow agreements, intellectual property protection, and cybersecurity risk management globally. Based in Manchester, UK, SES has more than twenty years of experience providing security to more than 2,500 professionals in 40+ countries. "Dealing with software escrow agreements is our bread and butter," said Tom Sweet, Information Security and Systems Manager at SES. It’s an area of constant growth and adjusting to keep clients happy and source code regularly updated. We are continually developing and innovating.” Often, SES does this with tools such as GoAnywhere MFT. For SES, GoAnywhere Managed File Transfer (MFT) has been a well-used and finely-tuned addition to its cybersecurity solutions. With the software in place, it performs on average nearly 2,000 uploads for clients per day — a mix of small and large files — as well as help monthly and quarterly businesses with their source code deposits. Switched from Manual File Transfers to Managed File Transfer Before GoAnywhere came into the picture, SES used a web gateway, an AWS-backed instance, to receive source code for its clients. It also occasionally used old-fashioned file transfer methods: physical disks and SD cards that were tracked, signed for, and had a direct chain of custody which could be followed. While this mixed process — AWS-backed instance and physical mail — worked at the time, it still lacked the ability to track user and file transfer activity. Having an audit trail was important to the business. When auditing also became a client requirement, SES looked for a way to streamline, structure, encrypt, and audit the exchange of data. SES handled a high volume of file transfers and needed robust security practices for the data it processed and stored every week. So the it was time to find a centralised solution which could do all of this and meet its trading partners’ needs. The tracked-and-signed file transfer processes SES used led to an evaluation of GoAnywhere MFT, a robust and fast-growing product which used similar techniques (tracking, signing, and a clear chain of custody) for sensitive file transfers. GoAnywhere was a hit. It took Tom Sweet mere days to learn the product. He attended two webinars, then jumped in and followed his intuition. The turnaround had to be quick, but the learning curve was straightforward. SES implemented GoAnywhere across its Linux systems and has depended on it ever since for day-to-day file transfers, streamlined encryption, and consistent auditing. Benefit#1: File Encryption and Security With GoAnywhere fully implemented, SES has been able to ensure all file transfers sent by its clients are encrypted in transit and sent to the right place. SES has also ensured that encryption keys are held separately. These are just two of the strict requirements SES needs to follow for its clients in order to stand out in a sea of escrow and backup service platforms. "It’s risk versus security," Tom said. "With HR and payroll data, the risk is high, so the security needs to be high as well."nearly 2,000 uploads for clients per day — a mix of small and large files — as well as help monthly and quarterly businesses with their source code deposits. Benefit#2: Fast File Transfer & Trading Partner Setup New trading partners and file transfer users can be set up in minutes. "Less than that if I’m rushed," Tom said. "The quickest ones we’ve had people test: I’ve sent the email saying here’s your username, sent the password out over SMS, and people test the log-in within 10 minutes." Sweet uses private and public keys to ensure the encryption and validity of the new transfers he creates. When the file transfers are executed, most run, start to finish, in less than 30 minutes. Benefit #3: Ease of Use & Automation "The main thing we use GoAnywhere for is managing users, auditing the logs, and giving users a secure gateway into our systems that would normally be firewalled," Tom, said. All of this is simple with GoAnywhere, and he believes the product’s biggest strength is its ease of use. Whether he needs to streamline, update, or re-deploy the product across systems and users, the process has been painless. Automation is another huge benefit of GoAnywhere. SES use GoAnywhere to do the heavy lifting for SaaS-based clients. These clients transfer large amounts of source code end data that are pushed into a SaaS escrow and captured in real time. "We help these clients configure a script that connects over SFTP to a GoAnywhere service," Tom said. "GoAnywhere then audits those transfers." The product securely transfers and audits at the same time, all automatically for nearly 60 clients who need their source code updated on a daily or monthly frequency. This enables SES to automate on Windows and Linux to meet the security requirements of each client. GoAnywhere’s granular security controls enabled Sweet to make GoAnywhere as safe and security-driven as possible against internal risks and user errors. "I stripped it back to who can do what," he said. Previously shared passwords were locked down. Web users were restricted to only the areas of the product they needed, and file storage was controlled — files could only be stored in the right areas of the network. "If someone in a company wanted access to the transfers, or to the systems, they could break the loop to that cycle. So that’s why we vault [client data] and back it up in an encrypted format. We make sure the file transfers are encrypted; that’s key too." Benefit#4: Regulation Compliance Many SES clients have compliance requirements which SES must meet. To achieve these needs, SES has applied ISO 27001 compliance across all clients to ensure all information sent between SES and other companies is secure. "ISO 27001 mandates that we create policies, processes, and procedures which we can prove using evidence-based systems," Tom said. "This says, ‘Okay, by default, you [the client] get all of this [security]. All files will be encrypted, and all second factor messages will be sent out-of-band so they aren’t sent over the same method of communication, and so on." Meanwhile, while encryption is the same and applied for everyone, clients can choose if they want to use multi-factor authentication (MFA) with passwords or SSH keys for an extra layer of security. GoAnywhere offers multi-factor authentication methods, including keys and certificates, for increased file protection. SES also uses GoAnywhere to encrypt every backup of escrow data that is then kept in offline vaults. "This ensures there’s 99.9% availability," Tom said. "No one thinks escrow is important until it’s too late," he added, so SES provides these offline backups with GoAnywhere’s help to give organisations peace of mind. Benefit#5: Auditing and Administration One of the biggest justifications for purchasing GoAnywhere was its auditing functionality. Tom and his team uses these audit logs to see who is connecting to their SFTP servers, what they’re doing on those servers, and how much they’ve done. This level of detail is critical, especially when dealing with sensitive escrow documents, software assets, and source code. "The log-in and auditing process in GoAnywhere is important for our information security standards. We audit the transfers not just to be able to take them securely, but also to prove who has been on and transferred what and when. The audit trail is important." If Sweet needs to change something, GoAnywhere makes it easy. Admins can make modifications or adjustments to their processes to keep constant with security requirements. "We can do this with GoAnywhere very easily," he said. "Then we just send out a new host key to our clients." What’s Next: Remote Agents and Advanced Workflows Right now, SES retrieves files from clients. But in the near future, it hopes to roll out GoAnywhere Remote Agents and GoAnywhere Advanced Workflows for customers who want zero involvement in the file transfer process. With these features enabled, Sweet and his team will be able to pull data from each client when needed without requiring manual work or engagement on their end. "Remote agents and advanced workflows will enable us to go out, talk to, and pull the requests for daily, weekly, or monthly file transfers," Tom explained. One Admin, One Product Tom Sweet has used GoAnywhere for four years. As the main product administrator, he’s always looking for new ways to implement the software, integrate it with other web and cloud services, roll it out as part of security-client processes, and improve the success of GoAnywhere at SES. "I want to get as much out of the product as I can," Tom said, reflecting on being the singular admin for GoAnywhere. "The more I push it out, the more we get a better return from our customer experience." And for any organisation — SES included — customer satisfaction is top priority. GoAnywhere’s encryption, automation, and ease of use help make that happen. Previous Next

- Top Cyber Security Agency Reports on Most Common Cyber Threats to Businesses | GSA
< News Top Cyber Security Agency Reports on Most Common Cyber Threats to Businesses 3 Dec 2024 The latest annual report by Australia’s top cyber security agency – The Australian Signals Directorate (ASD) – contains sobering details about the challenges being confronted daily by Australian businesses. Describing the current cyber security strategy environment as “the most complex and challenging … since the Second World War”, the ASD says advancements in critical and emerging technologies dramatically improve the ability of cyber thieves targeting Australian organisations. Cyber Crime Increasing ASD received more than 36,700 calls to its Australian Cyber Security Hotline during the 2023-24 financial year - up 12% on the previous year. It responded to more than 1,100 cyber security incidents, and notified organisations of potential malicious activity on their networks more than 930 times. However, these numbers are merely the tip of the iceberg relative to the total number of attempted hacks. ASD characterised cybercrime as “a persistent and disruptive threat”. Contributing to the surge in cyber crime is the availability of new opportunities and technologies such as artificial intelligence. This is reducing the level of sophistication needed for cybercriminals to operate, and attracting new criminals to the field. Top Business Threats Compromised business email accounts (20%) and fraud (13%) were among the top self-reported cybercrimes for businesses and individuals in Australia during the last financial year. Online banking fraud accounted for a further 13% of incidents. Ransomware and data theft extortion (stealing data without encrypting their victims’ systems) also remained a pervasive and costly threat. The top 5 sectors reporting cybercrimes to law enforcement were: Retail trade (15%) Professional, scientific and technical services (13%) Construction (12%) Financial and insurance services (8%) Other services (7%) Average Losses by Businesses Interestingly, the average self-reported cost of cybercrime to Australian business fell slightly vs the previous financial year: Small businesses: $49,615 (down 8%) Medium businesses $62,870 (down 35%) Large businesses $63,602 (down 11%) However, it’s worth bearing mind recent research which shows a large number of businesses did not report ransomware payments in 2023-24. Cybercrime Reports by State and Territory Australia’s more populous states continue to report more cybercrime, with Queensland and Victoria reporting disproportionately higher rates of cybercrime relative to their populations. The highest self-reported financial losses were from victims in NSW (~$86,000 per cybercrime) followed by Victoria (~$66,000). Common Cybercrime Techniques The ASD says Credential Stuffing – using stolen usernames and passwords to access other services and accounts via automated logins – is one of the most common cyber attacks. Another common technique is Password Spraying - a brute-force attack where cybercriminals attempt to access a large number of accounts with commonly used passwords. Quishing - Quick Response (QR) phishing – is another growing threat. Cybercriminals use QR – for example, on a café menu, or a subtly altered public notice - to trick people into providing personal information or downloading malware onto their smart device. Combating the Threats In its report, ASD urges organisations to replace unsupported information and communications technology systems with secure-by-design products, and consider cyber security when implementing new technologies. Two great examples of secure-by-design protective technologies are those that we recommend at Generic Systems Australia. Managed File Transfer (MFT) is a technology which enables organisations to securely exchange data between systems and people in an automated, reliable and efficient way. Advanced Threat Protection adds a further layer of defence, seamlessly integrating your managed file transfers with adaptive data loss prevention to keep sensitive data secure. ASD also urges organisations to prepare a cyber security incident response plan and test it regularly to ensure an effective response and fast recovery. The process of developing such a plan will help an organisation understand the nature of its most valuable data, where it is stored, which systems and individuals have access to it, and how it is protected – or exposed to – malicious threats.
