(PRWEB) March 25, 2010 -- The client, who cannot be named for contractual confidentiality reasons, has engaged Enterprise Managed File Transfer (MFT) vendor, Thru, to store and transfer confidential information worldwide for its legal and intellectual property units. After extensive evaluation, penetration testing, data center facility inspections, compliance, vulnerability and risk assessments were evaluated, Thru is proud to announce their success and excellence in these areas. The client, having used Thru enterprise MFT products in various departments for over five years, has identified Thru as a strategic vendor.

�Because we cater to enterprise customers Thru only deploys in SAS-70 type II data centers around the world. Security, compliance, and awareness are crucial when it comes to managing confidential information. Thru strives to be the best at what we do and only offer unparalleled services such as our new syncThru Global File Transfer service.

We are proud to be recognized for the value and quality that we deliver; we are also keenly aware that every day new threats appear and we must be vigilant to continue earning our clients trust.� remarked Lee Harrison, Thru CEO.
