Modernize Your Managed File Transfer. Keep Complete Control of Your Data.

A secure, enterprise-ready file transfer solution that deploys entirely within your own private cloud environment.

FedRamp-Compatible Deployments | No-Third Party Data Handling

Secure file transfer between your systems shouldn’t be complicated.

Businesses need to move files between existing systems and cloud platforms without adding complexity or losing control of their data.

Keeping legacy file transfer systems running reliably requires constant attention.

You may have hundreds or thousands of existing SFTP workflows you can’t afford to rebuild from scratch.

SaaS file transfer tools require sensitive files to pass through a third party’s environment.

Thorn connects your existing systems with modern cloud workflows while keeping you in complete control of your data.

Our software runs in your own cloud environment. Thorn never
touches, holds, or accesses your files.

Your Data Stays With You

Thorn is not a SaaS platform. Your files stay inside your own cloud environment, not on a third-party vendor’s system.

You Control Compliance

Keep control over access, data handling, and compliance requirements tied to HIPAA, GDPR, SOC 2, and other security standards.

Made for Regulated Teams

Built for organizations in finance, healthcare, life sciences, and logistics that need modern file transfer without unnecessary third-party risk.

our file transfer solutions.

This is such a good ‘simple’ solution for setting up a HIPAA compliant sFTP setup. I tried the AWS native product – way too complicated (and expensive), and found this. They are very responsive with support needs. … Very easy to add new external users. The whole thing is simple and great.

I like Thorn Technologies SFTP Gateway because they are quick to respond to technical issues, which is very important to me since the application serves a critical purpose. The members I have worked with have been easy to communicate with. The initial setup was easy, and they were very involved and assisted with technical troubleshooting.
