FileCatalyst 2.0 released

Unlimi-Tech Software today released FileCatalyst 2.0, an update to the utility designed to offer maximum throughput for large point-to-point or multi-cast file transfer applications. The latest release includes patent-pending technology with less than 1 percent overhead, according to the company, as well as on-the-fly compression and byte-level incremental transfers. FileCatalyst 2.0 for the Mac uses software automation to overcome the file transfer inefficiencies associated with packet loss and latency, boasting effective throughput that is 2-3 times greater than line speed. The software utilizes SSL for its control channel as well as AES for data encryption, and automatically detects line speed with adaptive rate control. User-based authentication with permissions control helps administrators keep data secure, and the software is cross-platform compatible with Mac OS X as well as Linux and Microsoft Windows (pricing and system requirements were unavailable).
