FTPS is a File Transfer Protocol with SSL for security.
SFTP stands for SSH File Transfer Protocol File Transfer Protocol.
As the name suggests, FTPS and SFTP are used to transfer files between computers on a network or the Cloud. You can use FTPS and SFTP to exchange files between computer accounts, transfer files between an account and a desktop computer, or access online software storage.
In order to use FTPS or SFTP, you will need to have a FilesAnywhere account. You will also need to have the means with which to use these connections. These include programs such as an FTPS/SFTP Client like FileZilla, or a backup software like our very own CoolBackup. You can also use your very own scripts to connect as well.
FileZilla is free, safe, and stable. Use the Quickconnect bar at the top to establish a connection with FilesAnywhere.
