About Globalscape (Stock Symbol: GSB)
Globalscape was founded in 1996 and is best known for the market’s most popular and successful file transfer application, CuteFTP.
While CuteFTP is a wildly successful application for transferring files over FTP, Globalscape also offers many other equally exceptional products.
For example, Globalscape has expanded out of the end user arena and into the corporate world with security and encryption solutions that address the needs of large organizations. Among their flagship products are:
- Globalscape FileExpress
- Globalscape EFT Server
- Globalscape Secure FTP Server
- Globalscape Wide Area Services
- Globalscape CuteFTP

These products address the security needs of banks, medical providers, financial institutions, government agencies, public sector organizations, corporations, and other entities who deal with sensitive information. No matter what type of information needs to be secured, Globalscape offers a means with which to secure it.
Many of Globalscape’s products provide organizations with the tool that they need for compliance. For example, The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 requires healthcare providers to implement security solutions to protect electronic protected healthcare information. Likewise, the Payment Card Industry - Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS) covers security measures for protecting cardholder data. These protective standards require encryption during transmission as well as restrict access to sensitive data. Globalscape is well positioned to help organizations comply with the various security standards governing their operations.
