RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., April 11, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via InvestorWire -- Data443 Risk Mitigation, Inc. (OTCPK: ATDS) (“Data443”), a data security and privacy software company for "All Things Data Security," today announces an additional contract win from one of its largest fintech clients.

The client, a leading global organization, is a service provider in the merchant solutions, banking solutions and capital market solutions marketplaces. The client processes over 75 billion transactions amounting to more than $9 trillion annually. For over 15 years, Data443 has been a trusted partner for the client's enterprise file transfer service requirements. Data443’s Data Placement Manager processes thousands of sensitive data files on an hourly basis for thousands of partners across the globe. 

Secure data discovery, identification, governance and distribution continue to be significant focuses of the Data443 platform. According to the Gartner® report “Hype Cycle for Cloud Platform Services, 2022” [1]: “Managed file transfer (MFT) is a major market segment, with rapid growth of managed file transfer platform-as-a-service (MFTPaaS) in the segment.”

Business Impact:

• Gartner estimates that MFTPaaS represented less than 25% of all MFT spending in 2021. MFTPaaS remains the fastest-growing segment of the MFT market, outpacing the growth in on-premises MFT.
• The majority of MFT deployments today are on-premises, largely due to privacy and security concerns surrounding cloud-based MFT solutions.
  
  

Customer Obstacles:

• Adjacent technologies such as integration platform-as-a-service (iPaaS) and content collaboration platforms add deeper and broader MFT capabilities.
• The viability of some pure-play providers, many of which are likely to be acquired or exit the market over the next three to five years.

“The analysis from the referenced Gartner report matches our experience – moving highly sensitive data in a completely secure, audited and operationalized capability is a major business driver for our clients,” stated Jason Remillard, CEO and founder of Data443. “More organizations outside of fintech, such as insurance, rating agencies, and other large and small banks, are now needing these capabilities. There are two major use cases that largely drive customers' accelerated move to MFTPaaS: the growing need for rapid and managed data movement capabilities leveraging cloud-first architectures and constraints around staffing for operators and data engineers.”

Mr. Remillard added, “As evidenced by our product release frequency in 2022 and 2023, we continue to leverage our skills in major enterprise enhanced file transfer/managed file transfer (EFT/MFT) requirements. We’ve been ahead of the curve regarding many capabilities by enabling our clients to drive product roadmaps and increasingly require more support and services. Our solution is available on Microsoft Azure, Amazon AWS and Google Cloud Platform. Several of our larger EFT clients are now leveraging the public cloud for scale, cost savings and disaster recovery options. Our clients’ significant uptime, volumes and multimillion-dollar investments in Data443 product lines drive our focus and passion for All Things Data™.”
