In the legal profession, confidentiality is everything. Attorney-client privilege doesn’t just apply to what is said but also to what is written down and captured in an electronic file.
That is why every transfer of a sensitive file can be a bet-the-business exercise that demands the utmost in file security and accountability. Failure to adequately secure a shared file can expose confidential material to unauthorized parties, leading to a breach of confidentiality, fines and erosion of trust with clients, colleagues and others.
Today many offices—even large law firms—use email to share sensitive files and documents without encryption or any auditable record of file transfer activity. Fortunately, Progress® MOVEit® Managed File Transfer (MFT) software supports secure, auditable file transfers.

- Financial disclosures
- Court-mandated files
