Secure File Transfer

Reflection for Secure IT supports programs that you can use for secure file transfer: sftp and scp. Both commands can help you manage file transfers between computers efficiently and securely.

Use sftp to transfer files securely between the local computer and a remote host. You can also perform other file management commands, such as creating files and changing permissions. You can use sftp interactively or in combination with batch files to automate actions.

Use scp to copy files securely between the local computer and a remote host, or to transfer files securely between two remote hosts.
