When first file transfers over a network were done, nobody thought about the security issues that could occur. After all, it was an experimental network and therefore only few people and computers connected to it. As time passed by, the numbers and also the hazards grew exponentially, until today.

Transferring files using messaging or FTP clients is an easy thing to do, but also insecure. Some people may exchange family photos or movies, freeware programs or other information that usually doesn’t have to be secure. But what can you do when exchanging bank account data, sending your projects or confidential company data? Even the smallest security gap, once found by an intruder, can lead to big problems for you and your data transfer partners. These problems lead to the development and implementation of secure file transfer protocols such as SFTP and others.WinSCP helps you in securing the file transfers. It is one of the premier file transfer service and a must use for all.
