A lot of times these protocols get confused and mixed up due to the similarity in function and names. The E2E Bridge supports the following file transfer protocols:
FTP | FTPS | SFTP |
---|---|---|
File Transfer Protocol | FTP Secure and FTP-SSL | SSH File Transfer Protocol |
Classic insecure FTP | FTP over TLS/SSL | Extension of SSH |
Plain FTP | Plain FTP over TLS/SSL channel | Has nothing in common with original FTP |
Username and password are sent as clear text over the network | User name and password are encrypted | User name and password are encrypted |
Transfer is not encrypted | Transfer is encrypted | Transfer is encrypted |
Uses TCP port 21 | Uses TCP port 21 or 990 | Uses TCP port 22 |
