	Without MFT Corporate/personal e-mail, file sharing services, physical media/post	With MFT Be a superhero and protect IP
Security	E-Mail sent in the clear (non-encrypted) making it incredibly easy for information to be gleaned should e-mails be compromised. Data written to physical media which is then posted/couriered stands a high risk of being compromised if mislaid/intercepted (especially if not encrypted).	E-Mail is sent across an encrypted channel meaning that even if it were intercepted, its contents are unlikely to ever be compromised. Two-factor authentication whereby a secondary communications channel is needed for authentication, e.g. a unique code sent to a mobile device.
Control	Utilising personal e-mail and file sharing services relinquishes corporate control, i.e. data ownership and geo-location is handed over to third parties. Handing-off to postal/courier services to deliver data written to physical media also relinquishes corporate control.	Personal e-mail accounts, file sharing services and postal services/couriers are no longer needed, thus ensuring total corporate control. Deploying an MFT solution on-premise (as an alternative to a Cloud service) can provide further levels of corporate control.
Visibility	Regular corporate e-mail does not provide visibility into the status of files received, let alone support the notion of non-repudiation. Unauthorised use of personal e-mail accounts and file sharing services is hard to visibly detect, let alone deter.	Every file transfer activity is controlled and logged in the MFT server which provides a complete visible audit-trail. Uniquely identifiable PURL’s (private links) provide visibility into exactly which files have been downloaded, by who, and when.
Speed	Writing files to physical media and posting/couriering introduces unwanted delay in the exchange of information and jeopardise competitive advantage.	With a simple MFT plug-in, regular e-mail clients can be used for sending files securely, meaning no time is wasted in having to switch to a discrete solution.

	Without MFT Personal e-mail and file sharing services	With MFT Avoid being a rule breaker
Security	E-Mail sent in the clear (non-encrypted) making it incredibly easy for information to be gleaned should e-mails be compromised.	E-mail is sent across an encrypted channel meaning that even if it were intercepted, its contents are unlikely to ever be compromised.
Simplicity	The average customer/member of public will not have the technical capability to download, install, register, and use a file sharing service app.	A simple to use single app. ensures the user submits all necessary elements of evidence with the minimum of complexity.
Speed	Every minute wasted in submitting evidence negatively affects the quality of service, e.g. claim-to-settlement time, catching perpetrators of crime etc.	No time is wasted in the user having to figure-out their own method for sending information. Pre-registering users’ details expedites processing.
Control	File sharing service apps. such as DropBox, Hightail etc. relinquish data control/location away from Insurance companies, police forces etc.	Complete in-house control of sensitive information storage and location.

	Without MFT File Transfer Protocol (FTP), shared storage (SAN, NAS etc.)	With MFT Do what matters most
Cost	The hidden costs involved with supporting a ‘free’ protocol such as FTP requires the employment of staff with the technical competence to manage frequent changes to the IT landscape, e.g. script maintenance, scheduling, remedial file transfer failure action etc.	Empowers businesses with limited technical knowledge to monitor and control file transfer activity through a single User Interface (UI) thus removing the need for expensive technical staff.
Speed	FTP often results in undesired situations such as incomplete files, duplicate files, incorrectly named or located files etc. which have a negative impact on Straight Through Processing (STP) levels.	Intelligent transfer protocol ensures files are transferred efficiently in their entirety (automatic checkpoint/restart), are not duplicated, and are correctly named – therefore increasing STP levels.
Audit Trail	Shared storage doesn’t provide a centralised activity log that can be used for audit trail purposes, let alone providing any notion of non-repudiation.	All file transfer activity is centrally logged in an events database that provides a comprehensive audit trail across the entire MFT landscape.
Compliance	Because a centralised ‘single source of truth’ audit trail cannot be provided, demonstrating compliance with in-house standards and / or external regulations is fraught with difficulties.	A ‘single source of truth’ audit trail provides businesses with compliance readiness.
