The solution places the (SIG) between the external FileCatalyst server or client and the enterprise network. When a user attempts to send a large file via FileCatalyst:

FileCatalyst is a file transfer acceleration solution that replaces TCP with a proprietary . It treats packet loss as a feature, not a bug. While TCP stops transmitting when a packet is lost (congestion avoidance), FileCatalyst continues sending while resending the lost packet in the background.

: The pairing ensures every high-speed transfer is audited and compliant with regulations like GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI DSS , providing a clear trail of who sent what and when. Who Is It For?

Who needs this level of power? More industries than you might think:

: FileCatalyst maintains maximum throughput regardless of network distance or packet loss.

: Automatically removes sensitive information (like credit card numbers or PII) from documents and emails in real-time, allowing the rest of the communication to proceed without a full block.

This is where the "Clearswift" name carries weight. FileCatalyst isn't just a fast truck for your data; it’s an armored transport.

Fortra’s Dynamic Duo: Clearswift & FileCatalyst In the world of high-stakes data transfer, speed often competes with security. But thanks to the ecosystem, you don’t have to choose. By combining FileCatalyst 's extreme acceleration with Clearswift

: Instead of a "stop and block" approach, Clearswift can automatically redact sensitive information (like PII or credit card numbers) or sanitize metadata from documents in real-time, allowing the rest of the file to continue its journey. Advanced Threat Protection (ATP)

When you configure them correctly, you achieve the holy grail of data governance: Your users get the instant, reliable transfer they demand. Your compliance officer gets the adaptive redaction and DLP logging they require. Your CISO gets the visibility they need.
