Data is an advanced commodity, which makes it extremely important to manage data. Without proper tools and strategies, your data may not be as secure as you think.
- Use the firewall to protect the company's network security.
- Ask your employees to change their passwords every 90 days.
- Ensure that the security settings of the company equipment are strengthened.
- Implement an annual safety briefing, covering the importance of strong passwords and the importance of locking the keyboard when leaving the desk.
The reality is that even if the above security measures are strictly followed, it is still far from enough. If we want to better protect data and establish a stronger security state for the organization, we need multi-layer defense, including regular security training for all employees and updating security policies.
Your data may be destroyed by the following practices:
1. Adopt traditional FTP
FTP is a common file transfer method. Because of its ease of use, accessibility, and low cost, it is usually the preferred protocol for enterprises or organizations. However, FTP transfer of files cannot guarantee the security of data. Using FTP, users transmit data in clear text through the network, and the exposure risk of data files is high, so anyone can easily access your data.
2. Outdated system and software
Software and system updates are released because security vulnerabilities have been found in their code, Java or OpenSSL, and software patches are needed. It is necessary to update the system and software in time to keep your certificate up to date.
3. Opaque network information
Monitoring is a key step in controlling the network. If you have multiple systems to manage, it is easier to clearly understand what is happening if you monitor all the data in one place.
4. Unmanaged internet access
The explosive development of the Internet has penetrated through the door of enterprises. Apart from the safe working laptops approved by the company, there are also unsafe personal computers, mobile devices, and many other devices. They are connected to your network 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This uninterrupted access makes it more important to isolate users' folders and their access to the network. Controlling user access will help you distinguish them from important data so that authorized personnel and devices can access it.
5. Failure to provide employees with easy-to-use and suitable tools
As employees, there is only one ultimate goal, that is, to finish the work smoothly. Besides, they also want to contribute to the success of the enterprise. When they can't get the tools they need to achieve their goals, they will look for solutions. They download free consumer applications and transmit sensitive data to partners, suppliers, and other external parties through insecure paths. In the short term, it is effective for employees and their daily business objectives, but this approach makes enterprises face various data security vulnerabilities.
A reliable MFT solution is a very important defense layer, and MFT platform provides a safe and efficient management system for any organization that must move and protects data to meet business and compliance requirements . Through MFT, you can centrally and globally control the dynamic data of data, and monitor and control all uploading, downloading, and sharing file transfer operations. If you want enterprise data to be transmitted and managed more efficiently and safely, the MFT platform ) is the best solution.

For media organizations specializing in content production, audio transmission, video transmission, text, pictures, and other file contents are the cornerstone of their survival and development. How to quickly realize content collection, production and distribution is the source power for the industry to maintain its leading position.
This year, the bubble of broadcast media has certainly expanded, and new content forms are appearing in the whole industry. Obviously, remote collaboration and other new productivity methods must be implemented in the workflow to make the production successful. What needs to be emphasized is how the industry will continue to develop with the help of acceleration tools.
Media producers have noticed an increase in workload. Each department needs to produce media materials with different stages and huge data volume, and smooth collaboration and effective data migration are needed among departments. These files will have different sizes and formats, so it is necessary to use fast file transfer tools to deal with files of any size among various departments of the enterprise. Before introducing a solution similar to the large file transfer system with radium speed, many enterprises had the problem of low team productivity. Of course, enterprises can study appropriate tools, but it needs to invest a lot of manpower, material resources, and money. Some companies choose to simplify this process, but it also leads to data confusion, leakage, and other security issues. Choosing suitable tools can actually provide the correct direction and guidance for enterprises.
Raysync will guide big data enterprises to complete correct high-speed large file transfer steps. Raysync large file transmission system is a popular transmission tool in the whole film and television media industry.

Workflow: Raysync & The Monk Studio

In the first half of 2022 enterprises are facing a "great shock" in the global layout, and international trade, cross-border investment, and population mobility have all experienced an unprecedented sudden drop trend.
In the complex domestic and international environment, the offline business operation of enterprises is blocked, the online business is surging, and the problem of slow cross-border file transfer is exposed again. Three major problems, such as the rapid increase of data volume, inefficient transfer of large files, and unstable cross-border transfer, are forcing modern enterprises to enhance their digital operation capability.
In dealing with the problem of cross-border file transfer, the key point is that due to the influence of network physical conditions, traditional FTP, mail, and instant messaging tools will have high latency, high packet loss rate, and insecure data transfer stability and file transfer quality. If modern enterprises want to make a global layout, they must face the problem of the cross-border file transfer.
In view of the above problems, we analyze the solution of cross-border file transfer with Raysync.
The obstacles of the cross-border file transfer:
1. Speed
Due to the influence of network physical conditions, the high latency and high packet loss rate of transnational WAN seriously affect the stability of data transfer. Especially in the face of increasing data volume, it aggravates the slow transfer speed and low transfer efficiency caused by network congestion, latency, and packet loss, but ordinary enterprises often do not have this technical solution ability.
2. Security
There are certain security risks in cross-border file transfer tools and transfer processes. For example, FTP, a free file transfer tool, in not encrypted, and FTP script and batch files keep user ID and password publicly, which is vulnerable to hacker attacks. In the process of transfer, the hard disk transfer is at risk of damage and loss, while the non-compliant file transfer software has an unsafe connection, so it is easy to leak and steal the transmitted data in the process of data transfer.
3. Cost
In order to obtain professional technical support and high-quality and reliable service, some large enterprises will choose international special lines provided by telecom operators or secondary operators. However, this method is not only long in the application period, but also extremely expensive, which is unbearable for SMEs. More importantly, international private lines also have congestion problems during international time, and their transfer performance will still be greatly affected by high concurrency.
If you want to make a global layout, how can modern enterprises solve the problem of GB or even TB file data and provide it to overseas customers and global branches efficiently and stably?
How can improve file sharing efficiency?
1. Solve the technical problems from the root
Transport layer protocols TCP and UDP, UDP has a great advantage in speed. Based on UDP transfer performance, Raysync high-speed transfer protocol independently developed by Raysync breaks through the defects of traditional FTP and HTTP transfer, and the transfer rate is increased by 100X and the bandwidth utilization rate is increased to 96%. Intelligently accelerate the transfer in the whole process, avoid the high packet loss rate caused by network latency, greatly accelerate the efficiency of file outgoing, and the multi-dimensional transfer mode meets the extremely fast transfer requirements of TB-level large files and massive small files.
2. Bank standard encryption protection
Raysync is based on SSL encryption transfer protocol, adopts AES-256 encryption technology of international top financial level, and has built-in CVE vulnerability scanning, which adds multiple defense walls for data information, effectively resists external attacks, ensures the privacy of the transfer process, and ensures the integrity and safety of file data transfer.
3. The file verification mechanism is stable
Breakpoint resume and automatic retransmission mechanism are adopted in the whole process, and multiple file verification mechanisms are built in to ensure the integrity and accuracy of transfer results and ensure stable and reliable transfer efficiency in ultra-remote and weak network environment.
4. Clarify the demand control costs
Only when the capital investment is directly proportional to the functional requirements can the input cost be maximized. For the file transfer requirements such as single large file transfer, transnational file transfer, massive small file transfer, P2P accelerated transfer, object storage solution, or the functional requirements such as file accelerated transfer, file outgoing, file management, etc., a set of mature solutions for Raysync has three matching schemes. For enterprises and teams, it is an effective way to control costs.
In response to the upstream and downstream integration of business and accelerating the globalization of enterprises, the high-speed large file transfer solution provided by Raysync can drive the high-speed transfer of global data and enable enterprises to respond quickly in the fierce industry competition.

Many organizations rely on transferring large files from the field or between international offices. Operating through Internet links poses challenges to many standard applications: their performance is poor and transfer may fail. A common example cited by accelerated file transfer application vendors is the file transfer protocol, also known as FTP.
Of course, FTP will encounter problems when running on poor quality networks, which have high error rates or long latency related to international and satellite links. In order to improve the efficiency of file transfer, AFT suppliers provide their own applications instead of FTP, thus forcing customers to adopt this AFT technology and integrate it into their existing workflow.
Whether FTP or any other application using the basic TCP protocol, the problem is not the application, but the network. FTP can really perform well through high-quality links, so why replace applications to solve network problems?
The key to fast file transfer is enough bandwidth and error-free connection. Raysync transfer protocol has been independently developed by Raysync, which is dedicated to meeting the data transfer needs of internal or external partners of enterprises, providing efficient and controllable accelerated transfer of large files, ultra-long-distance, transnational network data transfer, safe outgoing of file assets, file management and organization authority management, supporting local deployment and cloud services, and providing enterprises with safe, stable, efficient and convenient technical support and services for large file interaction.
1. Fast speed
The transfer speed is hundreds of times faster than FTP and HTTP, which runs full of bandwidth to the maximum extent and does not affect other network traffic.
2. High efficiency
Mass high-speed file transfer softwares is 6000 times faster than FileZilla in the same network environment.
3. Transfer is unlimited
Cross-regional and transnational big data replication, migration or archiving can transfer at least 100TB of data every day.
Raysync provides self-controllable, secure, and private multi-industry data transfer solutions, and helps customers build information channels and integrate data resources.
