SFTP is an FTP protocol that runs on top of the SSH (Secure Shell) protocol, while SSL/TLS refers to standard FTP running on top of an SSL/TLS (Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security) connection. SSL/TLS provides 128-256 bit encryption. SSH provides 128-256 bit encryption as well. Note: WebDrive does not support the SFTP protocol under Windows 98. | |
