Secure File Transfer for Government

Information collaboration, transfer, and exchange are core to operations at all levels of government, including state and local branches. Like their peers in the private sector, government agencies and organisations must abide by a growing number of compliance regulations including ITAR, HIPAA, SB 1386, Massachusetts Data Law 201 CMR 17.00, and many others. Likewise, the transfer of highly sensitive data must be managed to ensure proper access, delivery, and receipt.

Customer Success Story

A major federal government healthcare research agency works with thousands of hospitals, clinics, and research institutes, needed to send confidential medical information, patient data, and research (PHI) to other physicians and practices within the agency, as well as around the world. Using BDS, this organisation can freely communicate with both these external entities as well as internal staff for any and all work that requires security and confidentiality. Because this agency regularly works with health information, HIPAA rules apply and it must ensure that only the intended recipients receive the data they need. And because the users’ technical knowledge varied, providing an easy-to-use application was critical.
