Diplomat MFT by Coviant Software Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How is Managed File Transfer (MFT) different from FTP or SFTP?
Many organizations still rely on FTP or SFTP for file transfers, assuming they're "secure enough". While SFTP encrypts data in transit, standalone SFTP tools often lack the governance, automation, and visibility modern enterprises need. That's where Managed File Transfer (MFT) comes in. FTP is outdated and unencrypted. SFTP secures data in motion but can fall short on compliance, auditing, monitoring, and workflow orchestration, especially at scale across multiple endpoints and partners. In contrast, MFT solutions like Diplomat MFT by Coviant Software provide an end-to-end platform with: Centralized visibility across transfers; Compliance-ready controls (HIPAA, PCI DSS, GDPR, more); Encryption at rest and in transit, including automated PGP; Real-time monitoring, retries, and alerts to prevent silent failures; Scalable, low-code automation that replaces fragile scripts
Q: How to Automate SFTP File Transfers without manual scripting?
SFTP automation eliminates the need for manual scripts, reducing risk and saving time. While many organizations rely on custom SFTP scripts for file transfers, these quickly become complex, error-prone, and non-compliant as transfer volumes grow. Diplomat MFT by Coviant Software provides a secure, no-code solution to automate SFTP file transfers reliably and at scale. Whether scheduled or triggered by events (like new files at the source or API calls), Diplomat MFT handles your automated file transfers without human intervention. It simplifies workflows, enforces encryption, and supports full audit trails, making it ideal for regulated industries. Automate once and let Diplomat MFT handle the rest. No Scripting. Secure & scalable. Compliance ready.
Q: Do I need PGP Encryption if I'm already using SFTP?
Yes. SFTP and PGP secure data in different ways, and most organizations use both for layered protection and compliance. SFTP (transport security): encrypts the connection while a file moves from A to B. Once delivered, that "tunnel" ends and the file may sit readable on a server. PGP (data security): encrypts the file contents. Think of PGP as a locked safe inside the SFTP tunnel. If a file is intercepted or stolen at rest, it stays unreadable without the key. Why use both? End to End protection: covers data in transit and at rest, including partner servers. Compliance support: HIPAA, GDPR, and PCI DSS often expect encryption beyond transport alone Non-repudiation: digital signatures help verify sender and detect tampering Defense-in-depth: if SFTP credentials are compromised, PGP still protects the data
Q: How does PGP encryption support compliance audits like HIPAA, PCI DSS, and GDPR?
PGP encryption is a cornerstone for meeting HIPAA, PCI DSS, AND GDPR standards by ensuring data confidentiality and integrity. It protects sensitive records, such as PHI or financial data, both at rest and in transit. For auditors, PGP provides non-repudiation through digital signatures, proving that files remained unaltered. Diplomat MFT automates this process, replacing manual scripts with a no-code platform that enforces security policies consistently. This removes error, a leading cause of data breaches. Crucially, it generates automated audit trails and Connection Map reports, offering visual evidence of secure data flows for regulatory review. Features like PGP enforcement rules automatically delete unencrypted files to guarantee policy compliance. These technical safeguards directly satisfy the strict documentation and security requirements of modern compliance frameworks.

    "Simple. Powerful."

    5 out of 5 stars Posted 2025-12-10

    Pros: Super easy to set up. Simple to use (one-click automation). Once Diplomat MFT is launched, it tackles all file transfer needs, no matter how complex, no matter how many, no matter how large. Enterprise scale at a great value.

    Also, it's nice to know Coviant Software is focused on file security. The new threat intelligence feature looks nifty!

    Cons: I would have to really dig down to find nits to pick. Understanding how to implement workflows for very specific (maybe unique to our organization) cases might be one, but then support shows you how to do it and you realize it was pretty simple.

    Overall: Good product. Good people. Excellent support. When you understand just how useful an MFT product is (so many ways this helps productivity), you will want to get it for yourself.
