VMS is our Windows-based software for recording all our IP cameras by computer. It is also supporting other brands of IP cameras via Onvif protocol. VMS is free and you can install it as many times as you like, either as a main NVR, or as an additional control unit for your IP CCTV system.
1. Executive Summary GlobalSCAPE (now part of HelpSystems, now Fortra) is renowned for its managed file transfer (MFT) solution, Enhanced File Transfer (EFT) . A critical component of EFT's security architecture is its integrated firewall and DMZ gateway , often referred to as the DMZ Gateway or Edge FTPS/HTTP Proxy . This report analyzes the firewall capabilities of GlobalSCAPE EFT, focusing on its role in securing inbound connections, protocol proxying (FTP, FTPS, SFTP, HTTP/S), and network segmentation.
Mid-to-large enterprises requiring audited, DMZ-separated MFT with support for legacy FTP and modern SFTP/HTTPS. Document Version: 1.0 Last Updated: 2025 Based on: GlobalSCAPE EFT v8.x architecture (HelpSystems/Fortra)
| Component | Location | Function | |-----------|----------|-----------| | | DMZ | Terminates external client connections (FTP/S, HTTP/S, SFTP). Validates protocols. Proxies traffic to internal EFT server. | | Internal EFT Server | Corporate LAN | Stores user accounts, auditing logs, automation rules, and backend storage (disk, cloud). | | Database (SQL) | Internal LAN | Stores configuration, user metadata, and event history. |
Unlike traditional network firewalls, GlobalSCAPE’s firewall component operates at , acting as a reverse proxy and protocol validator. 2. Architecture & Components The GlobalSCAPE EFT firewall architecture typically consists of three logical zones:
Today, almost all the IP CCTV systems we sell include an NVR for video recording. An NVR is convenient because it comes with mobile APP for remote control and monitor ports. However, it is also possible to monitor and record via computer, saving the cost of NVR. You can freely install our VMS software to turn every computer you own into a monitor / recorder for your IP cameras.
VMS is free: why not take advantage of it?
