About Cerberus FTP Server

Cerberus FTP Server is a secure on-premise file transfer solution designed to provide auditing, collaboration and automation tools for secure file transfer. The system is HIPAA compliant and FIPS 140-2 validated, and offers SSL encryption, IP auto-banning, two-factor authentication (2FA), and more.

With Cerberus FTP Server, users can securely transfer files through all major file-transfer protocols, with support for simultaneous HTTP/S, SFTP, and FTP/S protocols operating on a single IP address. The system also supports Secure Copy Protocol (SCP) and ad hoc/person-to-person file transfer for sharing unique expiring public links to specific folders or files. Security features include 2FA through HOTP and DUO Security, client certificate verification, SSH2 public key authentication, IP blacklisting/whitelisting, protocol-based login restrictions, temporary user accounts, automatic account lockout, per-user secure connection requirements, and more.

Cerberus FTP Server provides users with audit trails for all file access and commands, transparent reporting of client activity, file integrity checks, and rolling log files. The event manager lets users configure email notifications, perform batch actions or file operations, and set up automations based on server events. Cerberus FTP Server can also be integrated with Active Directory or LDAP for account management.

Very positive experience. We use this with several state and local government agencies and have no complaints.

Pros

Easy to implement and is constantly being updated/improved. We've even migrated to another server a few times and the process is streamlined nicely.

Cons

Before some recent updates which fixed this issue, the user management UI was a bit clunky, though still functional.

Alternatives Considered
