Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) works over the Secure Shell (SSH) data stream to establish a secure connection and provide organizations with a higher level of file transfer protection. This is because SFTP uses encryption algorithms to securely move data to your server and keep files unreadable during the process, and authentication prevents unauthorized file access during the operation. While Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) doesn’t require two-factor authentication, you do have the choice to require both a user ID and password, as well as SSH keys, for a more secure connection. Creating SSH keys helps prevent imposters from connecting to the SFTP server. SSH key pairs must be generated beforehand. Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) gives you the option to perform a wide variety of tasks for sensitive files, from removing files to resuming paused transfers. Unlike FTP over SSL/TLS (FTPS), SFTP only needs a single port number (port 22) to establish a server connection. Related Reading:
What encryption does SFTP use?Should that data be stolen during an SFTP transfer, the thief will not be able to read it without cracking the encryption. To ensure security, modern SSH protocol uses modern encryption: SSH uses Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) to encrypt data.
Which of the following protocols provides authentication and encryption services for?In computing, Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) is a secure network protocol suite that authenticates and encrypts packets of data to provide secure encrypted communication between two computers over an Internet Protocol network.
Which encryption protocols are used by IPsec during actual data transfer choose two?IPsec originally defined two protocols for securing IP packets: Authentication Header (AH) and Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP). The former provides data integrity and anti-replay services, and the latter encrypts and authenticates data.
Which of the following protocols provides authentication and encryption services for IP based networks?IPsec (Internet Protocol Security) is a suite of protocols that secure network communication across IP networks. It provides security services for IP network traffic such as encrypting sensitive data, authentication, protection against replay and data confidentiality.
