Release Notes
3.10.2 MetaDefender Managed File Transfer Release Date: Oct 06, 2025 | MetaDefender Managed File Transfer 3.10.2 is a minor release with feature enhancements and bug fixes. | |
|---|---|---|
| MFA Support for MFT Pull | MFT Pull now supports MFA for secure environments. Manual Pull operations require users to complete MFA challenges, while automated jobs can authenticate using administrator-generated API keys. This ensures secure access for both interactive and automated workflows, maintaining compliance and uninterrupted file transfers. | |
| HA Active-Passive for MFT | MFT now supports active-passive high availability, with a Controller Service automatically promoting the passive instance if the active one fails. Manual reactivation of the original instance ensures continuous and reliable operation. | |
| Configurable Guest ID Length | Admin UI now allows administrators to configure the length of guest IDs between 12 and 255 characters, with a default of 12. This enhancement provides flexibility for integrations and improves control over guest account identifiers. | |
| Set Radius as Default Login Screen | MFT now allows administrators to set Radius as the default login screen, ensuring it appears as the first and selected tab for users in trusted network environments. This improvement streamlines the login experience, supports Radius-only setups, and maintains flexibility for other authentication methods. | |
| MFT-to-MD Core Load Balancing | MFT now lets administrators distribute tasks to MetaDefender Cores using Basic Round-Robin or Smart CPU-based routing, automatically skipping unhealthy cores and logging routing decisions for efficient, reliable processing. | |
| Admin Override for Core-Blocked Files | Administrators can now manually unblock files previously blocked by MetaDefender Core. Overrides are logged, and reversible, giving admins full control over file availability without altering the original Core verdict. | |
| Reset All Email Templates | Administrators can reset all email templates to their default state in one action, creating a new active version and removing customizations, simplifying template management. | |
| Show Temp File Name in Processing History | Processing History now includes a “Physical File Name” column, allowing administrators to trace files by their temp filenames and quickly identify files in storage, improving auditability and troubleshooting. | |
| Pull MFT Access for Non-Admin Users | The Pull MFT feature can now be enabled for all users, allowing non-admin roles to retrieve files from connected MFTs. This improvement streamlines file access across remote locations | |
| MFT Pull: Copy Files Without Folder Structure | MFT-to-MFT jobs now support an option to copy only files from the source, without preserving the original folder structure. This allows administrators to consolidate files from multiple subdirectories into a single destination folder, simplifying processing and management. | |
| Visual Orchestration: Job Executions & Node Filtering | Automation page now shows the latest 10 job executions and allows filtering of nodes by type, integration, direction, or state. These updates improve visibility, focus, and workflow management for automated jobs. | |
| Windows Integrated Authentication Support | UI now supports Windows Integrated Authentication with Kerberos for SSO, allowing automatic or manual login for users in AD domains. This provides seamless authentication while maintaining fallback for non-domain PCs. | |
| Login UI Refactor | The login screen have been updated to a unified design across all OPSWAT products, ensuring a consistent and modern user experience for sign-in, MFA, guest, and Radius. | |
| Operational Dashboard Widgets | New widgets have been added to the Operational Dashboard, featuring line charts for file uploads and downloads by both volume (GB) and count. This enhancement provides real-time trend insights and improves monitoring of MFT activity. | |
| MFT Enrollment with CM10 | MFT can now securely register with Central Management v10, enabling trusted connections for centralized management and monitoring. This improvement enhances operational control and visibility across MFT instances. | |
| Control Manual Synchronization | Administrators can now enable or disable the manual file re-send option system-wide. When disabled, the Manual Resync option is hidden from users, giving admins greater control over file operations. | |
| Move Files Between Storages | Admins can now move files from inactive or local storage to active or network storage. The process handles large files in batches, supports encryption, and provides tracking of progress, simplifying storage management and ensuring safe file transfers. | |
| Bulk File Approval with Comments | Supervisors can now approve multiple files at once while adding a single comment that applies to all. This streamlines workflows, reduces repetitive tasks, and saves time for teams handling bulk file approvals. | |

| Improved Large File Push to SMB | Automation Jobs now support reliable transfer of large files to SMB servers, improving stability and performance for high-volume uploads. | |
| Improved Installer CLI Argument Handling | The installer now parses and handles all CLI arguments, ensuring consistency with documented usage. Invalid or missing arguments produce clear error messages, improving usability and reliability of the installer | |
