Frequently Asked Questions #
When will my file be available for pickup?
We guarantee the file will be available for pickup by 5AM EST.
What time zone are times listed in?
We use the RFC3339 Standard as the layout for our timestamps. The timezone will be identified after the
Zcharacter, often spoken Zulu, as an offset from UTC time. If there is no Z character, or a Z character with no suffix, the time is in UTC.
What happens if I cannot connect to the MYMOVE SFTP server?
If you cannot connect, please notify your MYMOVE contact immediately.
How often does MYMOVE change the password or SSH keys for my SFTP account?
MYMOVE has a standard security practice which requires us to change the keys and passwords once a year.
Does my file have to be encrypted?
Yes, your file must be encrypted using PGP. We require that your PGP key have sub keys in order to make expiration, and revokation easier.
