Choose Users and Orgs

Choose Users and Orgs that will share

Before you delegate sharing settings as MOVEit Transfer Org Administrator, carefully consider the needs of your users and the tradeoff of access and sharing to confidentiality of information.

There are three important things to consider:

• Customized permission settings do not have to inherit policy settings from the parent folder. (In most cases they won't.)
• If you revert Share settings (clear the checkbox) after users have enjoyed sharing capabilities, permissions will no longer be customizable and will revert back to your Org wide policy.
• Enabling the Share permission attribute on the Home Folder Permissions page is possible but discouraged because it will enable users to apply customized permission settings and share user-home directly.

Note: It is best practice to enable Secure Folder Sharing first on a MOVEit Transfer Org designated for non-production use, where you can decide which users will benefit from increased autonomy and collaboration. After you understand the capabilities and modes of use, it is optimal to deploy these capabilities to production on an org-by-org basis.
