SSH

SSH is an acronym for Secure Shell. It is a method that can be used to connect to a remote computer and open a command line on that machine. It is very similar in practice to Telnet, but is different in that it uses encryption to add some degree of security to the connection. View this guide.

Secure FTP (SFTP) Software

SFTP is a more modern version of the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) that has some important security features. Because of this, we have turned off FTP access to all of our servers, and require all connections to be made using the more secure SFTP protocol. For more information please view this guide.
