Case Study: China Based Investment Fund
Problem:
A China-based investment fund needed store and transfer sensitive files related to portfolio companies to investment bankers in Connecticut and institutional investors in the US and Europe. Time was of the essence and security a primary concern to ensure the integrity of files for financial and legal reporting purposes.
How FileTransfer.com Solved the Problem:
Each member of the team signed up for a FileTransfer.com account. With FileTransfer.com, the team based in Beijing was able to upload large files related to the software development project directly to the local China server. The ability to upload data directly to the local China server resulted in faster upload times than if the team members had to upload the data to a remote FTP site based in Silicon Valley.
Once the data was uploaded, the team members were able to simply "file transfer" the data to the US server and make it accessible to the Silicon Valley based team. First "file transferring" the files to the US server meant that when the team based in Silicon Valley went to download the files, the download was local and much faster than the download would have been if they had tried to download the files directly from the China server. Members of the US-based development team were able to easily download files locally off of the US server. When the US-based team needed to send files back to the China-based team, they simply uploaded the files they wanted to send locally to the US server. After the files were uploaded they "file transferred" the files to the China server. Members of the China-based team conveniently downloaded the files locally from the China server.
FileTransfer.com provided the development team a fast way to move data related to their projects amongst themselves without needing dedicated internal hardware or to depend on other less reliable online file transfer and file storage services. Over a period of 3 months, the team moved more than 300Gb of data securely between the US and China. A FileTransfer.com solution meant that the team had a cost effective way to communicate amongst themselves and their files got where they needed to go in a timely fashion. They were covered knowing that all of their activity with FileTransfer.com was encrypted, secure and logged.
