Sean Doherty at Law.com wrote a great review of BDS. I’m impressed with the level detail he included in his review — he really dug down deeply into the configuration and setup, but he also goes over usage scenarios in just as much detail. Sean’s audience is probably on the more technical side, and he gives that audience the necessary technical specifics they’ll want to hear about, but he also does a fine job of describing the business case for secure file transfer at a high level. I’d say this is a good primer for people in IT who would be responsible for deploying our solution.
I talked to Kelly Jackson Higgins from Dark Reading for an article she was working on. She’s been covering IT for a number of years, and her latest article discusses one aspect of a growing threat — the dangers of malicious software capturing FTP credentials and using them to hack into legitimate web sites. Because FTP is prevalent for updating web sites, having the credentials gives hackers the opportunity to inject their own code into web pages unbeknownst to the site owner. These infected pages may redirect a visitor in a phishing scam, collect user credentials on login pages, or spread the malware or bot to increase the scope of infection. There are a number of other vulnerabilities in FTP that makes it hard to justify as a viable file transfer solution, and this is just one more nail in the FTP coffin.
