For authentication, SFTP uses something called a Public Key for the server and Private Key for the client. SFTP is capable of remote management of the server’s file system, file transfers that have been interrupted by an connection issue can be easily resumed without having to start all over again. SFTP is a secure FTP protocol, dependent on SSH (Secure Shell) allows for the transfer of files over an encrypted connection. The only downside is there’s no secure authentication and encryption going between the client and server so it is highly recommended that this be used in an LAN network or local server(127.0.0.1 and localhost). Standard FTPīy default, standard FTP operates on port 21. FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol and runs on the following ports: 21 for standard FTP, 22 for SFTP, and 990 for FTPS. One of the easiest and most convenient way for transferring files between computers locally or on the internet is by way of FTP.
