SFTP Server Configuraiton on Windows 10 or 11 using openSSH
SFTP, or Secure File Transfer Protocol, is a secure file transfer protocol that uses secure shell encryption to provide a high level of security for sending and receiving file transfers.
SFTP is similar to FTPS in that it uses AES and other algorithms to secure data as it travels between different systems. SFTP also provides several methods to fulfill the authentication of a connection such as user IDs and passwords, SSH keys, or combinations of these. SFTP is capable of helping enterprises achieve file transfer compliance as required for HIPAA, GDPR, and other regulatory regimes.
Secure File Transfer Protocol
To use SFTP, SFTP client software is required to connect to an SFTP server, where files can be uploaded, stored, and retrieved in a downloadable format. An SFTP server is the type of storage location where files are stored and retrieve.
