Re: [Ftpapi] FTPAPI Security related question



Hello,

FTPAPI does not currently utilize SSL (FTP over SSL is what some call "FTPS").   While this would be possible to add, I feel that the SSH protocol is superior, so using a tool such as OpenSSH's "sftp" is a better choice.  As such, I do not expect to add transport-layer security to FTPAPI.

Hi guys, Scott,

Good day to all.

 

At first, would like to thank you for sharing out this FTPAPI tool.

 

And second, please forgive my newbie question J

Am considering to use this, but would like to know how secure the tool is (what protocol does it use, FTP/FTPS/SFTP?).

Can the data sent by using this, be read (especially username and password) using packet analyzer?

 

 

Best Regards,

Cyrus
