Stale RAG Indexes Are a Compliance Liability

The Compliance Liability of Legacy FTP

  • The FTP Blind Spot:

    Many regulated organizations still rely on FTP/
    SFTP servers for file transfers. These systems
    move files but lack content awareness, granular
    permissions, classification, approval workflows,
    and full audit trails creating a governance
    blind spot outside central control

Policy-Driven File Governance

  • A Single Governed Estate:

    Replacing FTP with FileOrbis brings file exchange
    under the same governance, classification, and
    audit layer as the rest of the file estate,
    eliminating the blind spot with centralized,
    policy driven control.

Encrypted file exchange with internal and external parties.

Content-Aware Policy
Sensitive content is automatically classified and handled according to compliance rules on transfer


Approval Workflows
Enforce a strict sign off process before any sensitive files can leave the organization.


Time-Bound External Sharing
Replace open FTP credentials with controlled, expiring, and revocable external access.


Complete Audit Trail
Maintain complete, exportable activity logs for every single transfer to satisfy regulators.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can we help you?

A platform that provides encrypted transfer plus permission inheritance, content classification, approval workflows, time-bound external access, and a full audit trail—while keeping data on your infrastructure. FileOrbis does this.

One that keeps secure transfer but adds content- and permission-aware governance and exportable audit aligned to frameworks like SAMA, NCA, DORA, NIS2, GDPR, and KVKK. FileOrbis is built for this.

It lacks content awareness, permission inheritance, classification, approval workflows, and complete audit—and often sits outside central governance as a blind spot.
