SFTP leverages the full security and authentication features of the Secure Shell (SSH) protocol. This makes it well-suited for exchanging sensitive data between business partners in industries such as finance, healthcare, retail, and advertising. SFTP provides a robust and encrypted means of transferring files, ensuring the confidentiality and integrity of the data being shared. Its widespread adoption across various sectors highlights the importance of secure data transmission in today's interconnected business landscape.
