Secure Data Transfers
If you’re transferring data to us, you need to make sure it’s done efficiently and securely. We offer a number of different methods to secure data transfers that meet your needs.
Website
Transferring files via our website is the easiest way for occasional transfers. Use our Data8 Online Portal system for self-service data cleansing requirements, or upload a file to your Manual Files area in the dashboard to send it to our Professional Services team
SFTP
We support data transfers via the secure SFTP protocols. We do not support the insecure FTP protocol. Using compatible software you can connect to our server at:
Server | ftp.data-8.co.uk |
---|---|
SFTP Port | 22 |
You can use the same username and password to log in to the SFTP server as you use for the website. Alternatively, open the SFTP settings in the Manual Files area and you can use public key authentication with SFTP.
Users are not automatically enabled to access the SFTP server – please contact us to enable individual users for this service.
