Tectia Server for IBM z/OS provide security to existing FTP file transfers by applying the Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) instead of FTP, or by using tunnels that encrypt the connection from the FTP client to the FTP server.

Unattended, automated file transfers between servers can be secured with the versatile command-line SFTP and SCP tools that apply the SFTP protocol.

This chapter contains examples of non-interactive secure file transfers with Tectia Server for IBM z/OS. For more information on secure file transfer, see Tectia Server for IBM z/OS User Manual.
