(SFTP).
Secure file transfer protocol is a communication standard for transferring data files securely between computers or other devices on a network or over the internet.
It incorporates encryption and secure identification of the two parties involved in the data transfer.
- Secure connections have become easier to establish
- "When assessing the potential of an integrated treasury technology stack, it’s important to note that establishing secure connections across different financial tools is now easier than ever. You no longer need to choose between using the best software for specific tasks and dealing with integration difficulties.
- With the proliferation of APIs (application programming interfaces), more consistent SFTP (secure file transfer protocols) standards and a growing number of companies providing ETL (extract, transform and load) capabilities, your organisation can confidently select the best tools for specific jobs, knowing you can integrate these platforms with significantly less effort than before."
