Benefits of SWIFTNet Link Providing consistent single-window access to SWIFTNet, SWIFTNet Link ensures the reusability of the customer SWIFTNet infrastructure. Service providers can monitor the operational and application status of users, resulting in better customer service.
SWIFTNet Link also facilitates end-to-end service monitoring and management – resulting in better availability, control and support, as well as tighter security, improved performance management and seamless configuration management.
Customers and vendors are shielded from the underlying network and security technology, freeing up vendors from the need to develop SWIFT-specific communication protocols. SWIFNet Link can be changed to meet your evolving technology needs, without affecting supported applications.
