Progress WS_FTP overview

What is Progress WS_FTP?

WS_FTP Professional is a secure FTP client software that provides reliable and protected transfer of critical files. The application supports multiple secure protocols including SSH, SSL, and HTTPS, offering 256-bit AES encryption with FIPS 140-2 validated cryptography to protect files before, during, and after transfer. The integrated OpenPGP file encryption functionality supports AES and 3DES ciphers with signature key strengths from 1024 to 4096 bits, accommodating both RSA and Diffie-Hellman key types for comprehensive security throughout the file transfer lifecycle.

The software features a customizable interface with drag-and-drop functionality that simplifies file management between local systems and remote servers. Users can efficiently locate and transfer files using integrated search capabilities compatible with Google, Copernic, or Windows desktop search engines, allowing filtering by parameters such as file type, size, and date. The application supports unlimited simultaneous connections to multiple servers, enabling users to move files of any size or type between their computer and remote servers or directly between servers, significantly streamlining file transfer workflows.
