GlobalSCAPE Secure FTP Server is a full-featured FTP server for Windows operating systems. With the server, you can easily create multiple FTP sites that allow users to upload and download files and folders. Mission critical file transfers can be guarded with strong security.
While all mainstream FTP servers offer some level of security in the form of user names, passwords, and folder permissions, GlobalSCAPE Secure FTP Server also includes the following security features:
SSH Support - An add-in module now allows you to transfer files securely via Secure Shell (SSH).
SSL Support - GlobalSCAPE Secure FTP Server supports SSL (Secure Socket Layer) for client and server authentication, message integrity and confidentiality. You can configure GlobalSCAPE Secure FTP Server's security features to verify the identity of users, allow users to verify your identity and encrypt file transfers.
S/Key Password Encryption - Using a one-time password scheme called S/Key, GlobalSCAPE Secure FTP Server can better protect login passwords when used in conjunction with a compatible FTP client such as CuteFTP Pro.
Block anti-timeout schemes - Going beyond merely checking for NOOP commands, the server can look for suspicious sequences of control level commands created by clients, such as the Keep Alive controls some FTP clients offer.
Block Site-to-Site (S2S or FXP) transfers - Although S2S transfers can be beneficial to the FTP client user, server administrators consider them a potential security risk known as "port theft" or "FTP by proxy." GlobalSCAPE Secure FTP Server allows you to block these types of transfers.
Max transfer speed - Control the server's bandwidth demand by limiting users to a maximum speed.
Max concurrent connections - Determine the total possible number of connections to the server.
Max connections per user account - Only allow the specified number of connections to access the server for the same user (by user account name).
Max connections per IP - Limit the number of concurrent connections allowed from the same IP address.
Enable Time-Out - Specify the maximum time (in seconds) a client is allowed to stay connected without activity.
HIPAA compliance - GlobalSCAPE Secure FTP server can be an important part of your security plans to be HIPAA Compliant.
Besides the security features mentioned above, GlobalSCAPE’ s Secure FTP Server has many additional features.
