CFT (Cross File Transfer) (product name: Synchrony Transfer) is an old, proprietary secure computer file transfer program and protocol from Axway Inc, still used extensively in French banking and related industries. CFT was for mainframe computers using the French X.25-based Transpac network, but was later ported to use Internet protocols as well. Client software must be purchased from Axway, and includes a license manager that enforce machine and transfer limits: it is available for Windows NT, Unix, MVS, VMS, GCOS, Netware, and AS400/iseries. Like FTP, CFT is used to send files to a machine and remotely resume interrupted transfers. CFT can also trigger remote processes, rename files according to a specific protocol, apply security constraints and implement the character conversion (ASCII to EBCDIC for example). It is a tool to send and receive files reliably.Each site wishing to exchange a file is called a partner, regardless of the platform (Windows NT, Unix, VMS, MVS, GCOS, NetWare, AS400/iSeries). Any partner wishing to send or receive data from another partner must be declared in “the partners file” or “CFT directory”.
