I just heard that WebMD will be using ftp with pgp encryption. I think that is a reasonable and affordable solution that many will contemplate. Martin Scholl [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> www.HIPAASuite.com <http://www.HIPAASuite.com> 301-924-5537 Voice 301-570-0139 Fax
-----Original Message----- From: Dave Minch [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 02, 2002 10:32 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: What are the predominate internet file transfer methods used today? We are presently architecting our solution to sending data securely over the public internet. Our technical folks have asked a couple of very specific questions regarding protocols to use (Secure FTP, vanilla FTP with DES3 (PKI) encryption & authentication, HTTPS). I am asking the members of this listserv if they could send me any information they have regarding any internet protocols & architectures they presently use so I can get an idea of what other Providers, Plans, and CHs use. Thanks in advance for your responses. Dave Minch T&CS Project Manager John Muir / Mt.
