These files are transmitted to Palmetto using a Secure FTP (encrypted) connection and the FTP response files from Palmetto are received by VENDOR over the same type of connection. Vendor holds the returns files and the client may pick them up from the VENDOR’s secure website using HTTPS Protocol or request these files to be sent to them via SFTP.
