File Transfer Protocols

File transfer protocols are used to securely download or upload data through Wi-Fi from devices to the cloud or web. Common file transfer protocols include: - FTPS, which extends FTP with cryptographic protocols like SSL for authentication and encryption. - SFTP, which is a secure FTP alternative that uses SSH for a high level of protection and encrypts authentication and transferred data. - SCP, which supports encryption and authentication for file transfers between network hosts. - HTTPS, which adds encryption via TLS or SSL to HTTP, making it more widely used than HTTP for secure communication over networks. - Protocols like AS2, AS3, and AS4 which securely transmit files over the internet

File Transfer Protocol Secure

FTPS is an extension to the


commonly used File Transfer
FTPS Protocol.
• Uses cryptographic protocols like SSL.
• Authenticated through FTPS-supported
methods like client certificates.
• You can also use passwords to
authenticate through FTTPS.
SSH File Transfer Protocol
SFTP is a secure FTP protocol and a great
SFTP alternative to unsecure FTP tools.

• High level of protection for file


transfers like SSH.
• Uses only one connection and
encrypts both authentication
information and data files being
transferred
Secure copy protocol
SCP is an old network protocol that
supports file transfers between
hosts on a network.
• It supports encryption and authentication
features.
• It allows the inclusion of permissions and
timestamps for the file that needs to be
uploaded.
Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure
& Hypertext Transfer Protocol

HTTPS is an addition to the HTTP where


communications are encrypted by TLS or SSL.
• It is used for secure communication
+ SSL
= over a computer network and is
widely used on the Internet.
• HTTPS is now used more often by web
users than the original non-secure
HTTP, primarily to protect page
authenticity on all types of websites
Applicability Statement 2, 3, and 4

AS2, AS3, and AS4 are all popular protocols


AS2 used to send and secure critical file transfers.
AS3 • AS2 is used to transmit sensitive data
securely and reliably over the internet.
AS4 • AS3 is a standard that can be used to
transmit virtually any file type.
• AS4 is a protocol that allows
businesses to securely exchange data
with their partners.

Telecompensation

PeSIT is an end-to-end file transfer


protocol that was developed in by the
French Interbank Telelearning Systems.
• It can share CPU and bandwidth resources
among file transfers during heavy
workloads.
• Transfer processes are tracked across the
network using unique identifiers and
transfers can be triggered and executed
with differently assigned priority levels.

G AND
UPLOADING
DATA
What do you mean by “DOWNLOADING”?
• Downloading is the transmission of the
data like Music, text, images or other
information from a source on the
internet to your computer system.

• It usually involves a process as simple


as clicking on a link and following
instructions.

• For example, each time you visit a web


page on the Internet, you download the
information on the page, including any
pictures, to your computer. The term
download is often associated with
pictures, songs, videos, and programs.
What do you mean by “UPLOADING”?

● Uploading is the process of moving digital data such


as photographs or documents from your computer
and placing them on to a central server so that
someone else can retrieve them or to a website so
others can see them.

● From a network user's point-of-view, to upload a file


is to send it to another computer that is set up to
receive it.

● For example, you might save photographs from your


digital camera on to your computer and upload
them on to a social network such as Facebook,
where you can allow friends and family to see them.
