Secure Payment File Transfer

Hi,
Currently we are using the SAP Classic programs ( RFFO* ) which produce our payment files and store them in a directory from where they can be transferred to another payment system, There is a couple of tools which we could use for this Connect:Direct , SecureFTP etc...
My Question is there a more secure way to transfer these files. i.e when it is sitting in the directory waiting to be transferred it is possible ( although unlikely ) that someone could change the data in the file. As it is a payments file it is very sensitive.
Has anyone come accross this problem before ?? Got any suggestions ?? Is there any system to system standard that we could be looking at eg. HTTP ?
My Question is not about the generation of the file, but more on the method of communication.
Any pointers would be appreciated.
Regards
Sharif Bouktila

Hi Thank you for your response. Do you have any information on that process ?? Is it secure FTP ? Is there any type of encryption which we could implement on the file ??
Rgs,
Sharif

Security During File transfer

hi,
i have done a file transfer program in Java which transfers a file from one PC to another.
i want tht my file (any text document ) should get transfered in secured manner. Like there should be cryptography and authentication both involved.
how should i go about it ?

My First preference would be to use SecuredSocket using Certificate.
If you can not use Secured Socket, You can use a private-key and public key to encrypt/decrypt the data.
I am assuming that you are sending file(s) from a local server to a remote server.
You shoud create Key Pair Generator to generate public/private key and store them in a secured files in your remote server.
Copy the public key to the local server using a secured way. (copy it using a ssh/scp).
Then, you can encrypt your file content using the public key and send it to the remote server. The remote server should be able to decrypt using the private key and Only the remote server w/ private key will be able to decrypt and get the original content.
Again, this is just one way to do it. If this needs to be a production code, I would suggest that you get a Certificate from a Certificate Authority such as VeriSign.
If you need some help, drop me an email ([email protected])

Data loss in the secure file transfer using java

Hi,
My java Appllication uses the sftp(secure file transfer protocol) for file transferring. when the load is high like 150 GB , data loss occuring for some files especially last chunk of data is missing.
Core file transfer code
while (true)
int read = bis.read(buffer); //Reading bytes into the byte array (buffer) from network stream (bis).
if (read==-1) {
break; //Break the loop, if there are no more bytes available in the InputStream.
bos.write(buffer,0,read); //Writing the same number of bytes what we read into buffer byte array into OutputStream
complete.update(buffer,0,read); //Giving the same number of bytes what we read above to the checksum calculation.
bytesSoFar += read; //Incrementing the bytes that we have read from the source.
//if the bytes transferred are equal to the source file size
If (bytesSoFar == fileInfo.getFileSize().intValue())
// Calculate the file checksum.
// Update DbAuditLog with checksum and no. of bytes read
else
// Update DbAuditLog with no. of bytes read
bos.flush();
Please help , why the data loss is happening when the big size files transfer
Note:
1.150 gb not a single file multiple files.
2.SFTP no java specific API, So connection is happening through java .io.sockect connection

so, if you are not getting any exceptions, yet the data is incorrect, it sounds like you are having actual network issues. i'd start looking at things like the actual network cards in the computer as well other equipment involved in the transfer. since you are not getting exceptions, the network stack obviously thinks nothing was lost over the wire, so either the actual hardware has issues, or the network stack, or the issue is on the sending end. the last possibility is that the client is somehow munging the data it is sending. do you control the client code? if so, i'd start checking the client side code for bugs (and/or post it here).
also, i'm assuming that all of the variables included in your original code are thread local (you aren't sharing any of those buffers/streams/etc between multiple threads).

R12 - Secure/Protect the Electronic Payment File created for Bank

We setup the Oracle Payables to Pay the suppliers electronically. We were able to create the electronic payment file in a standard US NACHA format after the setup. Now my question is, What are the various ways to secure or protect this file from being updated (not let any one modify it or change the numbers) before it is being uploaded to our Bank's server?
Is there any standard process to achieve any kind of security to the file? Or Please let me know any other ways.
Thanks,
Munna

Hi!
    It is not allow to save into the SAP SEVER path.
      After Exec payment I go to the "/edit/download", in "File name" I put the SAP SERVER PATH "/iface/data_out/comm"
but It return "File /iface/data_out/comm/pagtro.txt could not be opened".
      It is allowed only if I drop into the windows path or in my micro.
     Do you know what configuration I need to do ?
Thanks.

I woke up at 3am to find my MacBook Pro in the middle of a file transfer using AirDrop.

I woke up at 3am to find my MacBook Pro in the middle of a file transfer using AirDrop. I had not accepted any file transfers via AirDrop as I was asleep so I am a bit confused by all the posts that say that the only way it will work is by the end user accepting a request to transfer files. I am on a home network which has both a soft and hard firewall. I checked my firewall logs and have no signs of intrusion or intrusion attempts. I checked my network map to see see if someone had brute forced my router and was using it but the only assets listed were mine. My router is set up to not be accessable from wireless computers, and is filtered to only allow use by a assets in the MAC Address list. I am an IT by trade but this is my first mac so I am not completely savy in the ways of the ways of macdom. I have found several posts with suggestions on how to turn off and came up with the following terminal command "defaults write com.apple.NetworkBrowser DisableAirDrop -boolean YES". My question is this, how is it possible that my AirDrop was activated and in the middle of a file tranfer if I did not initiate it? I do have a MacMini on my network but its WiFi is turned off so the transfer was not with it. I have read on different posts that you cannot AirDrop if the computer is not on the same network but there were no foreign assets on my network. So my question is this
1. If AirDrop can not be used with another computer if it is not on the same network, how was it being used?
2. How can AirDrop be used to xfer files if I did not accept or initate it?
It seems to be a pretty big security hole to me. Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.

It could just be a bad disc - I use Verbatim and have only had one fail in a ten-year time period. Try getting a batch of Verbatims and see if you have any problems. I didn't even know that there were Kodak branded discs...

No remittance advice output in the 'Outbound Payment File Directory'

We are working on an upgrade from 11i to R12.
Configuration has created a profile for an electronic payment with a separate remittance advice. They have specified an outbound payment file directory. The EFT text file is generated in the proper directory (on the appserver); however, the remittance advice file went to the default directory on the dbase server. We want to pick up the file, rename and ftp to our printer from the 'outbound payment file directory'.
Is this expected functionality or did we miss something in configuration?

Manu,
I do not think it is possible -- You may log a SR and confirm this with Oracle support.

Dynamic outbound payment file directory for in Payment Profile in R12?

Hi All,
Is it possible to have the "outbound payment file directory" setup in R12 Payment Process Profile dynamically?
Ideally we would like to store the value in a profile and refer the lookup in this field, rather than giving it hard coded, like /net/common/CM_UTL_DIR/EBSTST
Please let us know of workarounds also, if any.
Thanks!
Manu

Steps for File Transfer through FTPS...!!!

Hi ,
Can anyone please tell the steps for file transfer with FTPS.
Does PI file adapter has bulilt in feauture to handle this? or
Do we need to deploy anything to handle this?
Do we need to install any certificates by requesting from partner or It will do the encryptions/authentications on its own?
Any additional Steps we need to mention in File receiver adapter while we send the file through FTPS?
File is going through port 1090(unsecure connection) but it is not going through port (990) which is a secure connection.
Please suggest me.
Thanks
Krupakar

Hi Shabarish,
We got the certificate from the partner and loaded into the trusted CA's. I tried running by giving
Connectivity Security as "FTPS for Control and Data Connection" and Command Order as "AUTH TLS,USER,PASS,PBSZ,PROT"
Ip: XXX.YY.YY.ZZZ
Port: 990
User and pwd.
and I am getting the same below error
Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Error when getting an FTP connection from connection pool: com.sap.aii.af.service.util.concurrent.ResourcePoolException: Unable to create new pooled resource: iaik.security.ssl.SSLCertificateException: Peer certificate rejected by ChainVerifier
I tried by selecting different options like
1. Without selecting the X509 certificate for client authentication.
2. Keystore as TRUSTED\view\entry-cert
X509 certificate and private key as TRUSTED\view\entry-cert
3. Keystore as TRUSTED\view
X509 certificate and private key as TRUSTED\entry-cert
4.Keystore as "view"
X509 certificate and private key as "entry-cert"
Please help me in this.

File Transfer b/w Client - Server using JSP

Hi,
I need to implement a file transfer between the client and the server using JSP / Beans. The files can be XML Documents, Images (.gif,.jpeg) or even MS Word documents.
The user has a set directory on his file system where the files are to be saved upon download and retrieved upon upload. This system is similar to a check-in check-out system.
How do I get a reference to the directory on the users file system and then either save the downloaded files there or retrieve the files that need to be uploaded.
Thanks
coffeejava

The only way you can do this is by using an applet, a jsp page or servlet does not have access to the system that the browser is running on. Furthermore if you were planning on using the html file form object you cannot set a value for that programmatically. It's not allowed for security reasons.

HT204144 File transfer using Airdrop from iphone to Macbook Pro

File transfer using airdrop form Macbook Pro to iphone is working...but from iphone to Macbook Pro is not working, Why?

Hi Brok25;
Thanks for the question. The resource below explains the specs and settings that are needed for AirDrop. Check the settings and look to see if your MacBook Pro is listed.
Mac Basics: AirDrop lets you send files from your Mac to nearby Macs and iOS devices - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203106
Sending files to and from an older Mac
If a Mac you're using with AirDrop was manufactured before 2012, you can send and receive files with other Mac computers.
On the sending Mac, click "Don't see who you're looking for" in the AirDrop window.
Select the option to "Search for an Older Mac."
On the receiving Mac, open a new Finder window and click AirDrop in the sidebar.
Tips for sending files
Make sure Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are enabled on your Mac and your iOS device. Although you don't have to connect to a specific network, Wi-Fi needs to be on to send and receive files using AirDrop.
Move your devices closer together. AirDrop is designed to work within a range of approximately 30 feet (9 meters). If you need to send a file to someone farther away, consider using File Sharing, iCloud, or email instead.
If you're using a firewall on your Mac, you won't be able to receive AirDrop files if you have enabled "Block all incoming connections" in the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences.
Make sure your devices meet system requirements for AirDrop.
System Requirements
To see if your Mac works with AirDrop, make sure you’re in the Finder by clicking the desktop (the background area of your screen), or by clicking the Finder icon in the Dock. Then, check to see if AirDrop is listed as an option in the Go menu. If you don't see AirDrop listed, your Mac doesn't support this feature.
In order to transfer files between a Mac and and an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch
your iOS device needs to include a lightning connector
your iOS device needs iOS 7 or later installed
your Mac needs to be a 2012 or later model with OS X Yosemite installed
Your Mac and iOS device both need bluetooth and Wi-Fi turned on. You do not have to be connected to a specific Wi-Fi network.
To transfer files between two Mac computers, you need the Mac models listed below with Wi-Fi turned on and OS X Lion or later installed.
MacBook Pro (Late 2008 or newer)*
MacBook Air (Late 2010 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 or newer)*
iMac (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Mini (Mid 2010 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2009 with AirPort Extreme card, or Mid 2010)
*The MacBook Pro (17-Inch Late 2008) and the white MacBook (Late 2008) do not support AirDrop.
For help identifying your Mac, choose About This Mac from the Apple menu. You can refer to the Apple Support website to find out if your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch includes a lightning connector.
Cheers,
- Judy

Electronic payment file format

Dear all,
one of our customers needs to transfer payment files via MT101 (= RFT) to a swiss bank. According to the documentation there are only formats like DTA, EZAG, ISO20022 available for bank transfer.
Does anyone of you have further knowledge or experiences if there is a possibility to transer MT101 files? Perhaps a work-around?
Thanks a lot
Best Regards
Peter

Hello Peter,
There is an option to create new Payment File Formats in ByDesign through Localization Toolkit.

New to MacBook - slow LAN file transfer problem

My new MacBook is painfully slow when wifi-ing to my house LAN.
I turned in my old G4 iBook for a MacBook (2GHz C2D, 2GB, 10.4.9, all updates). I have a LAN that consists of a wired 1G Ethernet backbone (a Mini and a Powermac G5 are wired in) and a Snow AEB that provides 802.11g wifi access to the LAN. The wired LAN connects to a D-Link GB Ethernet switch so the wired systems can exchange files fast. The switch connects to a D-Link EBR2310 router that connects to a cable modem to ComCast. The router has the latest firmware (1.05, it's an 'A' version router).
The Mini, G5, and MB are static IPs on the LAN. The D-Link router passes out DHCP addresses >100, with addresses <101 reserved for static LAN IPs. I use static IPs for network reliability when recovering from power outages and other unforeseen glitches. The LAN has worked very well in this configuration, with fast file transfers among machines and good stability.
With my old 802.11g G4 iBook, I was able to watch DVDs that are stored on an external FW drive connected to the Mini. No stalls, no pauses, no dropouts - MenuMeters showed an average throughput of about 700KBytes/sec on the iBook when viewing a DVD. I used both VLC and DVD Player with good results.
With my new MacBook, I can't view my DVD files. 802.11g network transfer rates to the MB (indicated by MenuMeters and by Activity Monitor) vary rapidly from a high of about 1.1 MBytes/sec to 20 KBytes/sec. Movies stall, skip, etc.
Simple file copies from one system to another are also much slower with the MacBook - an average of ~100KBytes/sec vs. ~ 1.5 MBytes/sec with my old iBook. In short, the MacBook is dog-slow in file transfers from the other machines compared with my old iBook when using the wifi connection, with no change to the network infrastructure in going from the old laptop to the new. I would like to fix this.
My AEB is set up in bridge mode (simple access point) with WPA2 security. All three Macs are completely current with latest updates, as is the Snow AEB. The MB has 4 bars of signal strength. Slow file transfer problem does not change when moving the MB to or from the AEB.
Curiously, when I download a large file (like the Intel 10.4.9 combo update), the MB shows a steady ~800KBytes/sec download speed, with none of the speed variation it shows with file transfers from either the Mini or the G5. File transfers to/from the MB to either of the other Macs are very slow.
Both the Mini and the G5 have Airport cards: when I switch them from wired Ethernet LAN to wifi LAN, they transfer files between each other at ~ 2MBytes/sec - about what you'd expect from an 802.11g protocol. So the slow file transfer doesn't seem to be due to the AEB, it seems to be specific to the MacBook. When I connect the MB using its hardware Ethernet port, files transfer just as fast as the other systems.
I have tried these measures, without effect on the problem:
- power off/restart of every component in the system;
- changing the AEB to an open network mode;
- changing the MB from static IP to DHCP;
- toggling IPv6 on/off;
- running no applications other than Finder on all systems;
Activity Monitor on the MB doesn't show anything sucking up CPU cycles during file transfers. I have plenty of RAM. The only thing I've changed in the network is the swap of the iBook for the MacBook.
Can anyone suggest what else I can try to make acquisition of this nice shiny MacBook a step forward, rather than a step back? Thank you!

Hi,
Did you want to use the Live Migrations for that?
We recommend that you configure separate dedicated networks with gigabit or faster speed for live migration traffic and cluster communication, and these networks should be separate from the network used by the management operating system, and from the network
used by the virtual machines.

Proxy Server in File Transfer System

Hi, I need to write out a file transfer system through a proxy server for my project
All the while i was writing a file transfer system directly from client to server without any security issue
Anyway, the scope is given as below, and i know it needs the JSSE package to come out a SSLSocket and SSLServerSocket.
The question is...
1. can i use NIO with JSSE included?
2. how to come out a java proxy server? is there any tutorial i can read through?
The scope is given as below
1) Proxy server
* perform tunning and keep the linking between file transfer host and client
* authenticate the file transfer client using CA certificate to establish SSL connection
* Once authorised, need to establish another SSL connection to host engine
2) File Transfer Manager at Client
* To initiate SSL connection to proxy server
* To open two type of connection: command and file connection
* The command connection is always keep alive
* For the file connection, the system required to re-open another connection after send file to host
* Auto-reconnect to server when the connection is down
* Re-handshake the SSL connection when the channel is inactive for sometime
3) File Transfer Manager at host
* To authenticate the proxy server and authorise the client before establish the connection
* Manage the connection
* request to client to open new connection (by sending command) when there is no file connection available to send file to client
* Request for re-handshake the SSL connection when the channel is inactive for sometime

Hi,
It is a new feature of SMB3 named SMB MultiChannel, which helps copy files through multiple NICs.
Detailed information please see:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/josebda/archive/2012/05/13/the-basics-of-smb-multichannel-a-feature-of-windows-server-2012-and-smb-3-0.aspx
As mentioned you can disable or enable it with following steps:
2.2. Disabling
SMB Multichannel is enabled by default and there is typically no need to disable it.
However, if you want to disable SMB Multichannel (for testing purposes, for instance), you can use the following PowerShell cmdlets:
On the SMB server side:
Set-SmbServerConfiguration -EnableMultiChannel $false
On the SMB client side:
Set-SmbClientConfiguration -EnableMultiChannel $false
Note: Disabling the feature on either the client or the server prevent the systems from using it.
2.3. Re-enabling
You can re-enable SMB Multichannel after you disabled it by using:
On the SMB server side:
Set-SmbServerConfiguration -EnableMultiChannel $true
On the SMB client side:
Set-SmbClientConfiguration -EnableMultiChannel $true
Note: You need to enable the feature on both the client or the server to start using it again.
If you have any feedback on our support, please send to [email protected]

4500EA LAN File Transfer Speed

My XBOX started complaining when I began using Windows Media Center to stream videos from my PC to my XBOX. I found out that I had a wireless G router provided by verizon which wasn't fast enough to stream videos. SO, I went out and purchased a 4500EA router expecting it to be the fastest thing I had ever seen.
Now it seems a bit slow when trying to stream video from my laptop to the XBOX and i'm a tad bit confused as to why. So I did a file transfer from a desktop wired directly to the router from a laptop in the same room wirelessly connected to the network and my speed is about 4mbps. 4MBPS!? This device is supposed to be capable of moving packets LAN side at 450MBPS.
Both of my PC's are quad core, newer model PCs. I've tried moving files now for several hours with the same results. I've toyed around with my wireless adapters, changed power settings, full duplex, half, changed mtu sizes, changed security settings. I'm out of ideas.
Is getting about 1% of the advertised bandwidth normal? Or is something wrong?

1. Without knowing the wireless adapters you use it's impossible to say how much you might get under very good circumstances.
2. The advertised 450 Mbit/s is as usual with networking the theoretical boundary which would be possible only under absolutely ideal circumstances not using 802.11. In reality a compatible adapter might get maybe 1/2 of that under very good circumstances.
3. In reality you often won't get a 450 Mbit/s or 300 Mbit/s connection rate (which is only an indicator for the signalling and encoding used) but only a 144 Mbit/s connection at least for the 2.4 GHz band because there is too much interference.
4. Toying around with settings usually makes things only worse, in particular if you don't carefully revert all settings back to the original settings.
5. What connection rate did you get with your desktop? What adapter is in the desktop?
