SFTP vs FTPS

Recently, I have finished working on an SFTP file transfer implementation. While learning and exploring both SFTP and FTPS protocols,I discovered that we often get confused between SFTP and FTPS.

FTP and SFTP enable secure file access, but they differ in certain ways.

SFTP is secure, fully encrypted, and securely integrated with firewalls.

FTPS, on the other hand, add a layer of encryption using SSL or TLS. It offers faster file transfer compared to SFTP.

I will be posting tricks I have been using in my journey.

So follow me on LinkedIn.
