GlobalSCAPE Secure FTP Server Feature List

SSL Support

GlobalSCAPE Secure FTP Server supports SSL for client and server authentication, message integrity, and confidentiality. You can configure Secure FTP Server’s security features to verify the identity of users, allow users to verify your identity and encrypt file transfers.

Secure Site-to-Site Transfers

GlobalSCAPE Secure FTP Server supports SSCN which allows site-to-site transfers over SSL connections.

SFTP (SSH) support

With the SFTP extension users can now connect and transfer over SSH connections for an extra security option.

S/Key Password Encryption

Using an advanced password scheme called S/Key, GlobalSCAPE Secure FTP Server can prevent password interception tampering when used in conjunction with a compatible FTP client such as CuteFTP Pro.

User Setting Levels

While most FTP servers allow you to add users to groups in order to define folder permissions, GlobalSCAPE Secure FTP Server allows you to add users to User Setting Levels. User Setting Levels contain user account information such as disk and bandwidth quotas and allow you to restrict commands such as access to print working directory (PWD). By changing the properties of one user’s setting levels, you are able to make changes site wide or to multiple users.

Full Digital Certificate Management

GlobalSCAPE Secure FTP Server includes utilities that allow you to create, sign, import, export and add digital certificates to a trusted list.

Multiple Sites

You can operate multiple FTP sites with unique directory structures and user accounts from one server location.

ODBC and NT User Accounts

In addition to the built in user database, you can use your NT user accounts or user accounts stored in an ODBC data source.

Restrict Access by IP Address

You can allow any multiple configurations for granting or denying access to the server by IP address.

Full Secure Remote Administration

GlobalSCAPE Secure FTP Server includes a separate Administrator Interface that may be run from multiple computers. You can even run it remotely under SSL and use it to remotely stop and restart the service.

Multiple Remote Sites

Now you can securely administer several remote sites from within one Administrator interface. Open the interface and connect to several different servers in the same office or around the world.

Runs as an NT Service

The server automatically starts and runs as an NT Service.

Block Anti-Timeout Schemes

Going beyond the traditional checking for 'NOOP' commands, the server can look for suspicious sequences of control level commands created by smart clients such as the Smart Keep Alive controls available in some FTP Clients.

Block Site-to-Site (S2S or FXP) Transfers

Although S2S transfers can be beneficial to the FTP Client user, they’re also considered by server administrators to be a potential security risk known as port theft or FTP by proxy. GlobalSCAPE Secure FTP Server allows you to block those types of transfers.Although S2S transfers are great for the user, greatly expediting what otherwise could be a slow transfer for the FTP Server operator, it is a security risk known as port theft or FTP by proxy.

Max Transfer Speed

This allows you to control bandwidth demand to the server by limiting users to a maximum speed.

Max Concurrent Connections

This determines the total possible number of connections to the server.

Max Connections per User Account

Tell the server to only allow the specified number of connections to access the Server for by the same user (by User Account name).

Max IP Allowed per User Account

This option effectively limits the number amount of disparate IP addresses associated with individual User Accounts.

Enable Time-Out

This allows you to Sspecify the maximum time (in seconds) a client is allowed to stayed connected with out activity.

Support for File Integrity Checking

Automatically verify CRC32 checksum of file transfers when requested by the FTP client. Only compatible FTP clients (such as CuteFTP Pro) are able to send a XCRC command.

Support for Multi-Part Uploads

Allows compatible FTP clients to issue a COMB (combine) command after transferring a single file in multiple parts. This feature maximizes the available bandwidth available to the client.

Support for FEAT, PROT C and more…

From showing the feature set (FEAT) during login, allowing REST, supporting clear data transfers (PROT C) in SSL mode and more, GlobalSCAPE Secure FTP Server offers unprecedented support for cutting edge FTP commands
