While this year’s Inovis Education Services Roadshow will be held close to the home of Inovis in Alpharetta, Georgia, professionals from all over the country are traveling cross country for this year’s three day event. From neighboring Southern states such as Alabama and Florida, to the Northern states of Ohio and Missouri, all the way out west in Washington and Oregon, and even from our very northern neighbor Canada, our educational gathering is proving to be a national affair.

In my first blog post, I discussed the different heritages of Managed File Transfer and what each perspective teaches us about file transfer requirements. But I skipped over the new kid on the block: managed file transfer through email. A couple of years ago, I read a survey asking corporate IT people what they used for file transfer. The most common answer was that they e-mailed files. From personal observation, you could see this same behavior at home as well as in the office.
But now files, both business and personal, have grown much larger and much faster than my e‑mail inbox (at work, my inbox is actually smaller and more strictly managed than it was two years ago). There was already a security concern for e-mailing files around since e-mails are more like postcards than letters in envelopes and anybody on the Internet who sees the letter fly by can read it. But we continued to use e-mail anyway so long as it continued to work, mainly because it was just so darned easy. So now we have gotten to the point where e-mail doesn’t work so well for file transfer, and while this makes the security guys happy, what are the rest of us supposed to do?
