The Clearswift Secure ICAP Gateway paired with FileCatalyst (or GoAnywhere MFT) creates a that secures both the content being transferred and the transfer process itself. As demonstrated by Mercury Financial, this integration can simultaneously improve security and increase productivity—a rare achievement in the world of enterprise IT.
Protects against both data leakage (outbound) and malware intrusion (inbound).

: Goes beyond simple file extensions to look inside the structure of over 300 different file types to find hidden metadata or revision histories.
The combination of Clearswift and FileCatalyst offers several critical capabilities for enterprise-level data exchange: A. Deep Content Inspection (DCI) The Clearswift Secure ICAP Gateway paired with FileCatalyst
While many organizations benefit from accelerated secure transfers, three verticals demonstrate the most dramatic ROI.
First, it's important to understand that "Clearswift FileCatalyst" refers to . Clearswift is a UK-based cybersecurity company, originally founded as NET-TEL in 1982, that specializes in adaptive data loss prevention (DLP) and content inspection solutions. FileCatalyst is an award-winning accelerated file transfer solution, founded in 2000, that enables rapid transmission of large files over global networks. Both are now owned by Fortra (formerly HelpSystems). Clearswift: Deep Content Inspection and Data Loss Prevention
The FileCatalyst Server receives the data instantly over its optimized UDP stream, bypassing traditional latency issues.
Legacy acceleration tools treat security as an add-on (e.g., "Aspera with ICAP" requires complex third-party stitching). Clearswift FileCatalyst is pre-integrated and certified for:
Clearswift, a leader in Adaptive Data Loss Prevention, integrates with FileCatalyst via the ICAP protocol. This allows every file being transferred to be intercepted and inspected in real-time without manual intervention. 1. Deep Content Inspection
Integrating Clearswift with FileCatalyst bridges this gap. It allows organizations to leverage extreme UDP-driven transfer speeds while a deep content inspection layer continuously cleanses and safeguards data in transit. The Modern Data Dilemma: Speed vs. Security
