The term SFTP can also refer to Secure file transfer program, a command-line program that implements the client part of this protocol. As an example, the sftp program supplied with OpenSSH implements this. [10] Some implementations of the scp program support both the SFTP and SCP protocols to perform file transfers, depending on what the server ...
WinSCP (Windows Secure Copy) [3] is a file manager, SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP), File Transfer Protocol (FTP), WebDAV, Amazon S3, and secure copy protocol (SCP) client for Microsoft Windows. The WinSCP project has released its source code on GitHub under an open source license, while the program itself is distributed as proprietary freeware.

SSH File Transfer Protocol — a file transfer protocol specifically developed by the IETF to run over secure shell connections; FTP over SSH, also known as "secure FTP" — the practice of using SSH to tunnel the older, well-known File Transfer Protocol (FTP)
FTPS, or FTP over SSL, another name used to encompass a number of ways in which FTP software can perform secure file transfers Topics referred to by the same term This disambiguation page lists articles associated with the title SFTP .
The SCP is a network protocol, based on the BSD RCP protocol, [5] which supports file transfers between hosts on a network. SCP uses Secure Shell (SSH) for data transfer and uses the same mechanisms for authentication, thereby ensuring the authenticity and confidentiality of the data in transit.
A packet-switched network transmits data that is divided into units called packets.A packet comprises a header (which describes the packet) and a payload (the data). The Internet is a packet-switched network, and most of the protocols in this list are designed for its protocol stack, the IP protocol suite.
SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP), a secure alternative to FTP (not to be confused with FTP over SSH or FTPS) Files transferred over shell protocol (FISH), released in 1998, which evolved from Unix shell commands over SSH; Fast and Secure Protocol (FASP), aka Aspera, uses SSH for control and UDP ports for data transfer.
Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) is a simple, lock-step FTP that allows a client to get a file from or put a file onto a remote host. One of its primary uses is in the early stages of booting from a local area network, because TFTP is very simple to implement. TFTP lacks security and most of the advanced features offered by more robust ...
