What does xTyFTP do with file encryption?
In file uploading, files are encrypted in your computer memory using a key that you supply. The encrypted files are then transmitted to the FTP server. The files stay encrypted while they are stored on the server. In file downloading, encrypted files are transmitted to your computer memory. The encrypted files are then decrypted if you supply the correct key and saved in your computer. In this desgin, when encryption is used, files are always in the encrypted state, and nobody will be able to open the files without knowing the key. Therefore, you can use any FTP server on the Internet to store or exchange your files to meet data privacy needs (e.g. HIPAA compliance). If you use FTP to exchange files over the Internet and you have already got an FTP account, xTyFTP is the choice. Detailed information about xTyFTP is available at http://www.xtytech.com/xTyFTP.
