SFTPPlus AS2 Drummond certification#

Introduction#

SFTPPlus is a Drummond-certified AS2 product, meaning its AS2 implementation has passed independent interoperability testing and meets recognized technical standards for secure B2B data exchange. This certification validates that SFTPPlus works reliably with other certified AS2 file transfer solutions in real-world B2B scenarios.

What Drummond certification signifies#

For SFTPPlus, this means the AS2 implementation was assessed against defined technical criteria and verified in controlled interoperability scenarios, including protocol behavior, secure message processing, and AS2 conformance.

For AS2 deployments, this certification independently confirms that the implementation was tested beyond a single-vendor environment. For organizations exchanging business-critical data with many partners, this helps reduce protocol-compatibility risks during onboarding and operation.

In practice, this can help teams:

  • speed up partner onboarding by reducing protocol-level uncertainty

  • lower integration friction in multi-partner ecosystems

  • support compliance and audit discussions by providing an independent certification reference

AS2 support in SFTPPlus#

SFTPPlus's AS2 implementation is based on:

For the supported cryptographic standards, see Supported Cryptographic Standards.

If you encounter compatibility issues with a specific AS2 partner or implementation, get in touch with our support team. We will work to extend AS2 support to cover non-standard AS2 implementations in order to offer maximum interoperability.
