Case Study: The Canton Police of St. Gallen achieves secure, centralized, automated file transfers with Progress MOVEit

The Canton Police of St. Gallen chooses safety with Ipswitch

The Canton Police of St. Gallen, a 800‑employee public safety organization, faced fragmented, manually administered file‑transfer systems that were costly to maintain, prone to failures, and hard to secure and audit. They needed a standardized, scalable channel to exchange data with other cantons and authorities while meeting security and compliance requirements.

They deployed Ipswitch MOVEit Transfer and MOVEit Automation (with MOVEit Failover added later) to consolidate and automate file exchanges. The centralized solution replaced multiple legacy systems, enabled about 25 automated transfer tasks to date, improved security and auditable logging, reduced administrative costs, and delivered high availability and easier compliance — with strong user acceptance and fast rollout supported by QBITS.
