Using SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) protocol to connect to sites remotely

Using SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) protocol to connect to sites remotely

ByMatthew Simpson

The SFTP protocol encrypts both user credentials (username/password) and the actual data being transferred. 

If you are new to working with FTP/SFTP, see SSH File Transfer Protocol on Wikipedia.

There are many free third-party FTP programs that you can download. Some are platform-specific; ensure that you download the software that matches your operating system.

  • CuteFTP – Mac OS X and Windows (SFTP is only available in the Pro version of CuteFTP)
  • Cyberduck – Mac OS X and Windows
  • FileZilla – Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have a Managed Support Services or Managed Hosting Plan?

If we host your website, yes – you have a Managed Support Services or Managed Hosting Plan. Go ahead and submit your emergency support request.

I don’t have a current plan. Can you still help me?

Emergency support is available only to those enrolled in a current plan. We offer non-emergency support for those not enrolled in a current plan based on our team’s availability and the complexity of your request. Services outside a Managed Support Services Plan are billed in one-hour increments. Each request results in the opening of a ticket in our support management system and will be addressed during normal business hours. Submit a support request here.

If you or your organization is interested in securing a fast response time and priority access to our team members, please contact us and ask about our Managed Support Services Plans.
