FileCOPA FTP Server - SFTP

Secure File Transfer Protocol is completely separate from other, older secure FTP protocols - it was built afresh, from the bottom up. It creates an FTP connection over SSH (Secure Shell).

SFTP allows secure connections between client and server, protecting both control and data connections. In FileCOPA it is only necessary to enable it on the Ports Configuration. Otherwise, everything is handled by the FTP client (which must of course support SFTP).

Because SFTP is not the same protocol as FTP some features available with FTP are not available with SFTP (sending messages on events for example).

SFTP does not need a certificate like SSL
