What your score likely means

  • 12Unbelievable. This can only mean two things: Either you work for JSCAPE or you’re a rabid fan of this blog. We’re hoping it’s the latter. :-)
  • 11Excellent! You must be a multi-protocol wizard who eats data transfers for breakfast.
  • 7 – 10Awesome. You’re not only an expert in secure file transfers but also well-versed in EDI and other automated, enterprise-grade data exchanges.
  • 3 – 6 – You’re familiar with client/server file transfers but probably haven’t explored business process automation.
  • 1 – 2 – Only got HTTP and/or FTP, right? Time to level up and start learning secure protocols like HTTPS, FTPS and SFTP.

In case you’re wondering…

  • AFTP is JSCAPE’s accelerated file transfer protocol, a TCP-UDP hybrid for high-speed file transfers
  • AS2, WebDAV, and WebDAVS run over HTTP or HTTPS. WebDAV runs on HTTP, while the secure WebDAVs runs on HTTPS. AS2 can run over either HTTP or HTTPS.
