Your data never stands still. Your security strategy shouldn’t either.

Critical business data is constantly moving — between people, applications, partners, systems, cloud environments and locations.

As data exchange becomes more complex, organisations face an increasingly important challenge:

How do you keep critical information secure, controlled and visible throughout its entire journey — without slowing the business down?

Join Fortra and Chillisoft for an exclusive executive roundtable bringing together New Zealand IT, security and technology leaders to explore how organisations can build a more secure, automated and resilient approach to exchanging business-critical data.

Over an interactive lunch session, we’ll move beyond traditional file transfer to explore how a layered security approach can help organisations protect, automate and govern data throughout its journey — while maintaining the visibility and control modern IT and security teams require.

And because the future of secure data exchange is evolving, we’ll also look ahead at the emerging role of AI and intelligent automation in the next generation of Managed File Transfer.

 

What we’ll explore

Join the conversation as we explore:

  • Zero Trust and secure data exchange
  • SFTP integration and workflow automation
  • Anti-virus and DLP protection
  • System-to-system and person-to-person data transfers
  • Accelerated transfer of large and business-critical files
  • Secure hybrid-cloud data exchange
  • Compliance, auditability and governance
  • Real-time alerting, monitoring and SIEM integration
  • The emerging role of AI in the next generation of Managed File Transfer
