About AS2

Answer

About AS2

AS2 is a specification for secure data exchange between businesses using the Internet that uses HTTP/HTTPS as a transport.

The AS2 gateway services are simple cost-effective solutions that facilitate the secure exchange of critical business documents over the Internet. These services enable an Internet-based sender or receiver to transmit data over the Internet using AS2 security standards and exchange this data with partners. The AS2 gateway services enable non-AS2 capable companies to continue to exchange data with AS2 capable partners by:

  • Acting as a secure intermediary to interface with Internet-based trading partners
  • Accommodating the partners? Internet-based access protocol and encryption methodology
  • Facilitating the exchange of data between two partners without requiring the non-AS2 company to change the way it sends and receives data.
