Case Study: SBS achieves faster, secure media file sharing with Kiteworks

Australia’s public broadcaster, SBS, sends real-time, rich media around the world for on-the-spot event coverage with Accellion

SBS, Australia’s multicultural public broadcaster, needed a better way to exchange large media and business files with outside producers and internal teams. Email attachment limits, slow FTP transfers, and insecure workarounds were causing delays, added costs, and support burden; SBS turned to Kiteworks (then Accellion) for secure file sharing and email integration.

Kiteworks implemented an appliance that was easy to install, integrated with email, and supported secure web-based transfer from anywhere. SBS reported that it was widely adopted within two weeks, improved turnaround times for media and business files, reduced time and cost for receiving outside content, lowered help desk needs, and eliminated costly, insecure sharing methods.
