South River Technologies Provides Key Components for medBEYOND File Sharing Service to 1,000 Partners

ANNAPOLIS, MD--(Marketwired - Apr 21, 2015) - South River Technologies Inc. (SRT), an innovator in secure file sharing, has today announced that its Cornerstone Managed File Transfer server and WebDrive File Access Client have been deployed as part of medBEYOND's HIPAA-compliant file sharing solution.

medBEYOND offers full lifecycle practice management services to physician centers that deliver scalable and complete practice automation using the latest in HIPAA-compliant technology.

medBEYOND needed a secure managed file transfer system coupled with intuitive remote file access and editing tools to host and provide access to data for client practices of all sizes and from any location. The combined solution had to be rapid to deploy and fully compliant with FIPS 140-2 and HIPAA regulations. South River Technologies' products struck the perfect balance of security and productivity.

Jared Cowan, senior technician at medBEYOND, said, "These products provide medBEYOND clients with simplicity, security, and versatility. Our practices require safe access to what they need, where they need it, without complications. Often they will want full access to their entire data share, while only offering third-party suppliers access to specific folders. That is something that we can now provide confidently and flexibly with Cornerstone MFT and WebDrive, which we just couldn't do any other way."

Cornerstone MFT adheres to industry-standard secure protocols and meets regulatory compliance standards to ensure secure file transfers, providing an alternative to complex VPN implementations. WebDrive provides file transfer capabilities without running a separate software application. Combined, the solution provides effortless file access while meeting the necessary security and regulatory compliance.

Michael Ryan, CEO of South River Technologies said, "We've worked with medBEYOND for four years and are proud that our technology is a key benefit when they speak with their own customers. Organizations need instant access to data, without unnecessary steps, but security and privacy are equally important. This is particularly paramount in healthcare."
