I have a requirement to install an FTP server that is secure. Now, first I

is on the SIPRNet which implies a certain level of securtiy to begin with.
Also, I will be using the WS-FTP client so that is also secure. I used the

You want SFTP, Secure FTP. Requires a third party product. I think

Server from Ipswitch also seem to have similar capability.

NIPRNet probably. SIPRNet, I'm not sure.

I would say check with the NOC. But, if you have experience like me,
they won't answer the question.

The latest policy mentions SFTP but no one can seem to tell us
developers what the standard is.
