Transfer CFT continues to evolve as a trusted backbone for mission-critical file exchange, expanding its role beyond traditional secure file transfer. This release focuses on helping organizations better connect their systems, improve operational efficiency, and prepare for emerging technologies such as AI, while continuing to support the stability and performance required in complex, high-volume environments.
As organizations increasingly combine file-based and API-driven integration, Transfer CFT strengthens its role within the broader Axway ecosystem through deeper integration with Fusion.
This integration allows organizations to connect file transfers with orchestration, transformation, and API workflows in a more unified way. By reducing reliance on custom development and improving end-to-end visibility, teams can deliver faster, more adaptable business processes across both legacy and modern systems. This capability is currently available in Beta.
In addition, Transfer CFT introduces Kafka-based notifications, enabling real-time visibility into transfer activity. This allows organizations to connect file transfers to event-driven processes such as downstream applications, monitoring tools, and analytics platforms without additional integration effort. As a result, file exchange becomes a more active and connected part of the overall digital landscape.
Organizations are exploring how AI can simplify operations and improve responsiveness. To support this, Transfer CFT introduces a beta version of its MCP (Model Context Protocol) Server.
The MCP Server enables customers to connect their own AI tools and automation solutions to Transfer CFT through a standardized interface. This creates new opportunities to automate tasks such as monitoring, troubleshooting, reporting, and administration, while allowing customers to build on the AI technologies they already use. This feature is available in Beta and supported on Windows and Unix platforms.
This investment helps organizations start integrating AI into their operations at their own pace, while ensuring Transfer CFT remains aligned with future operational models.
Transfer CFT continues to invest in the platforms that support some of the most critical business operations.
This release includes enhancements for z/OS environments that improve scalability and remove long-standing technical constraints. These updates are driven by customer feedback and are designed to help organizations maintain performance and reliability while modernizing their infrastructure.
By continuing to evolve alongside mainframe environments, Transfer CFT ensures customers can extend the value of their existing investments while preparing for future growth.
Simplifying day-to-day operations remains a key priority.
This release introduces usability improvements designed to reduce administrative effort, including more efficient search capabilities and configuration updates that can be applied without service interruptions. These enhancements allow teams to respond more quickly to operational needs while maintaining system continuity.
Overall, these updates help reduce operational friction, improve responsiveness, and free up teams to focus on higher-value activities rather than routine maintenance.
As a reminder, Transfer CFT follows the Axway Product Life Cycle policy (PLC 3.1). Security updates and improvements are provided for versions running on platforms in mainstream support. Platforms in extended support receive security updates only. Customers are encouraged to regularly review supported platforms and plan upgrades accordingly to ensure continued access to fixes, enhancements, and the highest level of protection. Fixes for correcting blocking/service-down issues or critical security vulnerabilities are delivered only for update releases in Maintenance status (released within the past 12 months)
JPI API has been deprecated since March 2022 (with the 3.10 version). That feature is removed with this update, Transfer CFT 3.10.2606 (June Update)
With the Transfer CFT 3.10.2606, we have added support for Secure Relay Router Agent 2.60 on Windows and Unix platforms only. All other supported platforms continue to use Secure Relay Router Agent 2.50; this limitation applies through the end of 2026. Starting in December 2026, additional operating system support changes apply:
Transfer CFT no longer supports Secure Relay on Solaris.
The minimum supported versions for Secure Relay are:
z/OS 3.1 HP
NonStop NSDEE 13.0
IBM i V7R5
On September 3, 2026, Axway will discontinue support for the Transfer life cycle backward compatibility with Transfer CFT 2.7.1 and will remove the source code and documentation related to this feature in the version 3.10.26xx update.
