FTP Program Designed for Secure File Sharing
Use an FTP software to enhance the security and control of enterprise file transfers
FTP program features
SolarWinds® Serv-U® Managed File Transfer (MFT) Server is built to enhance security and control over file transfers both inside and outside organizations. MFT supports file transfers using a wide range of protocols, such as File Transfer Protocol (FTP), FTP over SSL (FTPS), SFTP, HTTP, and HTTPS (HTTP over SSL), to help meet your FTP client security needs.
All Serv-U products are internally hosted, multi-protocol FTP programs designed to provide reliable file transfers over IPv4 and IPv6 networks. Compare the features of Serv-U tools.
Strong security features
Don`t send sensitive files over email. Use an FTP client program built for enterprise-grade security and compliance.
Serv-U uses SSL/TLS encryption to help prevent tampering, leakage, or exposure during any transfer-even with multiple file transfers and files larger than 3GB. Serv-U also comes with out-of-the-box file sharing security standards like the ability to set and manage concurrent session limits, blocking the IP addresses of timed-out sessions to help prevent brute force attack, and more.
For even deeper file security, the Serv-U Gateway add-on is designed to prevent insecure data at rest in DMZ networks to comply with regulations like PCI DSS.
Enterprise-ready FTP client program
Serv-U MFT is designed to simplify, secure, and speed up business-to-business and peer-to-peer file transfer.
With intuitive FTP user interfaces for file upload and download as well as its integration with existing shared storage and Active Directory domains, MFT is built to help employees easily exchange files from any major web browser or mobile device. You can even use the peer-to-peer file sharing feature designed for enhanced file-sharing security when sending and requesting files due to the ability to set an expiration date to access the link to download.
Comprehensive management
Serv-U offers admins granular control in an easy-to-use, customizable web console. Easily create and manage user accounts and their file sharing quotas. Use domains, groups, users, and collections to manage who can access specific files and folders on a server’s hard drive.
For real-time session monitoring, view transfer details or pause and resume active transfers in the FTP client program. Admins can also set limits to avoid bandwidth throttling or storage issues, whether in virtual local folders or for remote file transfers.
User-friendly design
The FTP client in Serv-U MFT offers employees a central location for sending and receiving files. Multi-protocol support means users can connect to a server in their preferred ways. Users can also transfer multiple files or large files with simple drag-and-drop via an intuitive web browser or mobile transfer on iOS and Android.
Serv-U is also built so admins can easily take care of FTP client security concerns, such as automatically moving or deleting files after each transfer. End users can be prompted to reset their usernames and passwords after a set number of days for additional security.

What is an FTP software program?
An FTP program uses the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) to transfer data or files between client and server devices on a network. FTP uses SSL/TLS or SFTP security protocols. The FTP port connection works by establishing two TCP links between the client and FTP server, which first pass control information, then create a data connection. The FTP ports can use either active or passive transfer mode.
