What's New in MOVEit Cloud

The following new features and improvements were added to MOVEit Cloud.

MOVEit Mobile and MOVEit Client Sign-On Security Statement (and Acceptance)

The security notice Acknowledgment feature (defined as part of the Sign-on Banner and Notice controls) was extended to display when users sign-on to MOVEit Transfer through MOVEit Mobile and MOVEit Client. This feature extends the audit compliance controls for MOVEit Transfer clients that are prescribed by most data security standards.

Secure Resource Notice (MOVEit Mobile)

MOVEit Client Enabled with MFA

MOVEit Client gives users private access to a uniquely-generated verification code (made available by email or mobile app). This additional verification step ensures user sign-on is genuine.

Users can manage MFA settings through the WebUI My Account page.

Setup Screen if MFA not Already Configured

Enter Temporary Verification Code (email method shown)

Custom Branding for Email Notifications

Include site, team, or enterprise logo designs in email notifications. Site branding controls are more intuitive.

The SETTINGS > Appearance - Brand page features intuitive controls and a new preview mode. You can apply defaults at the global (SysAdmin) and specific designs for MOVEit Transfer organizations (OrgAdmin level).
