10.3 What You Need to Know
FTP
File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a file transfer service that operates on the Internet. A system running the FTP
server accepts commands from a system running an FTP client. FTP is not a secure protocol. Your file
transfers could be subject to snooping.
FTPES (File Transfer Protocol over Explicit TLS/SSL)
File Transfer Protocol over Explicit TLS/SSL (FTPES) is a file transfer service that uses either TLS (Transport
Layer Security) or SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) for secure transfers across the Internet. It requests for a
mutual method of encryption from the FTP server for its file transfer sessions. Your FTP client must be set to
use FTPES as in the following example.
