We set up and manage secure file transfer solutions (SFTP/FTPS/MFT) for organisations exchanging sensitive information with clients and partners. You get encrypted, traceable and automated transfers that meet your security and compliance requirements.
Modern organizations must regularly exchange files with clients, partners, and internal teams – often containing sensitive or confidential information. However, traditional methods like email or basic FTP are no longer sufficient for these needs. They lack encryption and scrutiny, making data vulnerable to interception or misuse. In today’s data-driven environment, high-level security in file transfers is a fundamental expectation rather than a luxury. Data breaches from insecure transfers have become headline news, impacting thousands of organizations and leading to severe legal and financial repercussions. In fact, secure file transfer has become a boardroom-level concern, as companies face hefty fines and lawsuits when file transfer solutions fail and expose data. There is a clear need for a controlled, reliable way to share files that protects information and meets strict compliance requirements. Kristensson i Skåne AB addresses this need with our managed FTP & File Transfer Services, delivering secure and compliant file exchange solutions for modern enterprises.
What Kristensson Offers
We provide a comprehensive managed file transfer solution that ensures your files reach their destination securely, reliably, and efficiently. Key features of our service include.
- Managed FTP/SFTP with Secure Protocols
We set up and manage FTP services using encrypted protocols like FTPS (FTP over TLS/SSL) and SFTP (FTP over SSH) instead of unencrypted legacy FTP. This guarantees that data in transit is protected by strong encryption, preventing eavesdropping or tampering. - Web-Based File Transfer Portal
For ease of use, we offer a secure web portal (HTTPS) where authorized users can upload or download files through a browser. This web interface makes ad-hoc file sharing simple for non-technical staff and external partners, while still enforcing the same security controls and audit logging. Whether users transfer files via the web or through server connections, all exchanges occur in a secure, monitored environment that maintains compliance. - Automation & Integration
Our solution supports automated file workflows to streamline recurring transfers. You can schedule file transfers to run at specific times or trigger them based on events (e.g. a new file upload). We integrate with your internal systems and applications via secure connectors or APIs, enabling direct data exchange between systems (for example, sending reports from an ERP to an SFTP drop-off). This reduces manual work and human error by automating routine file exchanges, improving efficiency across your business processes. - Granular User/Group Permissions
We implement fine-grained access controls so that each user or partner only sees and accesses the files and folders you authorize. User and group permissions (role-based access control) can be tied into your directory (e.g. Active Directory or Azure AD) for centralized management. Combined with robust authentication (unique user credentials and optional multi-factor authentication), this ensures that only verified, intended parties can access sensitive files. - End-to-End Management
Kristensson’s team handles the entire file transfer ecosystem for you – from initial system setup and configuration tailored to your needs, to ongoing maintenance and optimization. We monitor the file transfer servers and infrastructure continuously to keep them running at peak performance. Our experts take care of updates, patching, and any adjustments needed as your business grows or requirements change, so you can focus on your core operations while we ensure your file transfers are efficient and secure.
Security & Compliance
We implement strong encryption, access controls, and auditing to ensure every file transfer is secure and compliant. Security and regulatory compliance are at the heart of our file transfer services. We recognize that many clients operate in regulated industries or process personal data, so our solution is designed to meet stringent security standards and GDPR requirements. Key security and compliance measures include.
- End-to-End Encryption
All file transfers use strong encryption protocols, protecting data in transit and at rest. Whether files are moving between systems or uploaded via our portal, they are encrypted using industry-standard ciphers (e.g. AES over TLS/SSL or SSH). This safeguards confidential data from being intercepted or read by unauthorized parties. - Secure Authentication & Access Control
We enforce secure user authentication and role-based access control. Every user must authenticate with credentials (and we offer multi-factor authentication for added security), ensuring only authorized personnel can initiate or download transfers. Granular permissions (at the user or group level) restrict access so that each partner or department only sees the files intended for them, dramatically reducing the risk of data leakage. - Comprehensive Logging & Audit Trails
Every file transfer and user action is recorded in detailed logs. We maintain an audit trail of who uploaded or downloaded each file, when, and from where. These tamper-evident logs provide full traceability and accountability – a critical requirement for compliance audits and forensic analysis. In the event of an inquiry or incident, you have evidence at your fingertips to demonstrate exactly how data was accessed. - Regulatory Compliance Alignment
Our managed file transfer solution is built to help you meet or exceed regulatory standards for data protection. By ensuring that every file transfer is encrypted, traceable, and auditable, we support compliance with laws and frameworks like GDPR in Europe, as well as industry-specific regulations (for example, HIPAA in healthcare, PCI-DSS in finance, or others). Compliance is not optional – violations of data transfer regulations can result in severe penalties that threaten a business’s viability. We stay up-to-date with evolving data protection requirements and can assist in implementing policies (such as data retention or access controls) that align with these rules. In short, our service provides the technical controls and documentation needed to transfer files in a manner that satisfies legal and audit obligations, giving you peace of mind that sensitive personal data is handled properly.
Use Cases
Our FTP & File Transfer Services benefit any organization that needs to share files securely, especially those processing sensitive or large data sets. Here are some common use cases and scenarios where our solution is invaluable.
- Secure Document Exchange in Regulated Industries
Businesses in sectors like finance, healthcare, legal, and HR often need to exchange confidential documents with external parties. This includes sending financial reports or client data (while meeting PCI-DSS or banking regulations), transferring patient records or research data (under HIPAA or similar healthcare laws), sharing legal contracts and case files with clients, or transmitting employee personal data to HR service providers. Our platform ensures these files are sent through an encrypted channel with strict access controls, so sensitive information (financial details, medical data, legal documents, etc.) remains confidential. Every transfer is logged and monitored, which helps demonstrate compliance with privacy regulations such as GDPR. By using our service instead of email, organizations avoid the risks of interception or accidental exposure – email is not inherently secure and often has file size limits and no audit trail. In contrast, our solution provides a controlled, auditable environment for exchanging critical documents. - Large File Transfers & Media Distribution
Many companies struggle with sending large files – for example, high-resolution media files, videos, databases, engineering drawings, or backup archives – because standard methods can be unreliable or slow. Our file transfer service is optimized for handling large file sizes and bulk data transfers efficiently. We impose no strict file size limits and utilize protocols that maximize throughput while maintaining security. This is particularly useful for industries like marketing (sending large graphics/videos to clients), architecture/engineering (sharing CAD designs or blueprints), or software/technology firms (distributing large software builds or datasets). Unlike typical email or consumer-grade file sharing, which often fail with large files, our managed solution ensures high performance and reliability even for multi-gigabyte transfers. Your big files will reach their destination intact, over secure channels, and you’ll have full visibility on the transfer status. - Recurring Data Integrations & Workflows
Organizations frequently need to exchange data on a scheduled or recurring basis – for instance, sending a nightly batch of transaction files to a partner, receiving daily order files from a vendor, or syncing data between an on-premise system and a cloud application. Kristensson’s solution excels at automating these recurring file transfers. We can configure schedules (e.g. transfer files every hour, or every day at 1 AM) and set up event-driven triggers (such as initiating a transfer as soon as a file is placed in a certain folder). This automation ensures the right data is delivered to the right recipient on time, without someone manually pushing buttons. It also reduces errors – automated workflows perform consistently and come with validation and alerts if something doesn’t go through. Typical use cases include system integrations (securely exchanging data between your internal databases and external SaaS platforms), supply chain data feeds, regular backups to an offsite location, and more. All such transfers occur under the hood securely, and your team can review logs or receive notifications upon success or failure. The result is a streamlined integration process that saves time and operates with minimal human intervention, improving overall productivity.
Delivery Model
We offer flexible delivery models and full support to ensure our file transfer service fits your organization’s needs.
- Hosted or On-Premises Deployment
Depending on your preferences and compliance requirements, we can provide the file transfer solution as a cloud-hosted service or deploy it on-premises within your own IT environment. Our cloud-hosted option is convenient and scalable – we handle the infrastructure in a secure data center – while the on-premises option gives you direct control on your own servers. In either case, the same robust features and security standards apply. Our solution supports all common deployment models, whether on-prem, in a private cloud, or as a managed service in the cloud, so you have the freedom to choose the approach that best aligns with your IT strategy and regulatory obligations. - Complete Setup and Configuration
When you engage Kristensson, our experts will take care of the entire setup and configuration process for your managed file transfer system. We work closely with your team to understand your file exchange workflows, user requirements, and security policies, then we configure the system accordingly – defining user accounts, permissions, folder structures, retention policies, and integration points. Because we deliver a fully managed, end-to-end solution, you don’t need to worry about the technical heavy lifting. We’ll ensure the platform is properly installed (whether on our cloud or your servers), hardened for security, and tailored to your business needs from day one. - 24/7 Monitoring and Proactive Support
Once your file transfer service is up and running, we don’t leave you on your own. Kristensson provides ongoing monitoring and support to keep your file transfers running smoothly. Our team keeps a watchful eye on the system’s health and transfer activities around the clock, so we can identify and address any issues before they impact your business. This includes monitoring server uptime, performance, and security events in real time. If a transfer fails or a system alert is triggered, our engineers are notified immediately and will work to resolve the problem proactively. We pride ourselves on minimal downtime and fast response, giving you confidence that critical file exchanges will happen on schedule. Continuous monitoring also means we can optimize and adjust the service as needed – for example, tuning performance if volumes increase – to maintain reliability. And if you ever encounter a question or need assistance, our support team is just a phone call or email away to help. - Training and Ongoing Guidance
Technology is only as effective as its users, so we include training and knowledge transfer as part of our service. We can provide tailored training sessions for your administrators and end-users, demonstrating how to use the web portal, manage user permissions, initiate or schedule transfers, and generally get the most out of the system. Our goal is to empower your team to use the file transfer solution confidently and correctly. Additionally, we offer documentation and best-practice guidelines (for example, how to format files for automated processing, or how to manage credentials securely) to ensure smooth operations. As regulations or business needs evolve, we also advise on any adjustments or new features that could benefit your secure file exchange processes. With Kristensson’s ongoing support and advisory, your organization will continuously leverage file transfer technology in a secure and optimized way.
