FTP traditionally has been the most common way to exchange files over the internet for years. FTP-FTPS-SFTP seems to be an update of FTP, but is this real? Or as everyone has said, that the progress of new technologies has made FTP obsolete?
If you are currently using FTP and looking for an alternative that provides visibility, control, and automation while improving security and manageability – this article takes a deep dive into what FTP is, its attributes and gives you the info you need to consider replacing FTP with a better file transfer solution.
File Transfer Protocol is a method of transferring data files from one computer to another over a network. As one of the original programs for accessing the information on the internet, it was developed in 1971 as part of the U.S. Department of Defense’s ARPANET protocols and thus predates both the TCP and Internet Protocol .
FTPS and SFTP
FTPS and SFTP are two separate protocols used as secure alternatives to traditional FTP. Often mistaken for each other, these are two very distinct protocols with different pros and cons:
FTPS is an extension to the commonly used File Transfer Protocol that adds support for the Transport Layer Security and the Secure Sockets Layer cryptographic protocols.
SFTP is a secure alternative to FTP and is often mistakenly used to specify some kind of Secure FTP, by which people most often mean FTPS. SFTP is a binary protocol in which all commands are packed to binary messages and sent to the server, which replies with binary reply packets.
Why Replace FTP?
Since FTP is typically used to solve a single problem or meet a specific application requirement, it usually results in multiple discrete deployments with no central management and control — leading to many business challenges for enterprises, which is not visible at the surface. Here are some driving factors for replacing FTP:
Security
There are a number of risks associated with using native FTP such as having FTP port open in firewalls and a lack of encryption. Exchanging information without the necessary security features could lead organizations to face massive fines in the event of a breach or a public relations disaster.
Lack of Visibility
When sending files via FTP, the sender has no way to verify whether the recipient received or downloaded the file or not. Also, since FTP doesn’t maintain an audit trail of system actions such as who downloaded or transferred files, organizations don’t have detailed proof of user actions.
Storage Overhead
FTP doesn't allow sender to automatically expire or delete files. The file will be deleted until the IT administrator delete it, consuming significant storage space and incurring unnecessary costs.
Cumbersome Workflow
It is difficult and complexed to manage FTP, if you want to send the file to a new contact, you need to set a new FTP account. Because the users have no right to access the FTP server, thus they need to repy on the help of the IT administrator to create the new accounts, retrieve forgotten passwords and remove accounts for those who no longer require access.
Alternative to FTP
As the enterprise-level file transfer expert, Raysync replaces the FTP server via the secure file sharing platform, and builds the ultra-high-speed transfer engine to realize all internal and external file transfer management of the enterprise and fast and safe file distribution worldwide. Some of Raysync's differentiating features include:

IT departments for oil and gas companies often face an uphill battle to meet industry file transfer demands. Like many other industries, oil and gas companies are concerned with speed and security when transferring data, but they must also consider the possible complications transferring very large files across vast distances.
Difficulty 1: Problem of Extremely Large File Transfer
File size often determines whether the transmission is smooth or not. Oil and gas exploration companies with energy services usually need to carry out snapshot detection of oil wells. The log files of these snapshots can reach up to 20GB. Some traditional tools cannot be used for such a large amount of file transfer at all. It is easy to deploy a set of radium transmission software in an enterprise. No file can be transferred because it is too large.

In the process of enterprise management and file transfer, FTP is actually one of the most commonly used software systems. However, with the continuous development of enterprise business and the increasing volume of files, in practice, it is not difficult to find that FTP is becoming less and less practical, so the data transfer mode based on FTP purchase can no longer meet an application demand of enterprises.
Let’s analyze the reason why FTP is becoming less and less practical in our daily life, there have 5 reasons:
1. It takes a long time to transfer those large files and massive small files via FTP, if the transfer process is interrupted, the files will likely be lost or damaged.
2. The logs of FTP in the process of transfer is invisible and can’t be traceable.
3. Because of the activeness of the public cloud, enterprises' funds in the cloud are often distributed in different cloud service providers or multiple areas of the same service provider according to different needs of business support. If the data in different locations on the cloud can be exchanged in real-time, different business modules can be effectively connected, which is a new problem that enterprises will face.
4. FTP has poor applicability for complex networks, especially under firewall architecture. Ordinary FTP does not encrypt data locally during transfer or storage. In such a situation, there is the risk of leaking data and files, which is very serious and greatly reduces security.
5. More and more enterprises need to distribute and summarize the data, but the FTP can’t provide a corresponding solution.
Thus, the enterprise needs to apply another solution, which can not only meet the requirements of fast, safe, and stable data, but also realize the synchronous distribution of data backup.
Raysync Transmission solution is dedicated to meet the data transfer needs of internal or external partners of enterprises, providing efficient and controllable accelerated transfer of large files, ultra-long-distance, transnational file transfer, transnational network data transfer, file management and organization authority management. It supports local deployment and cloud storage services, provides enterprises with safe, stable, efficient, and convenient technical support and services for large file interaction, and maximizes office efficiency.

In times of high speeds, the transfer of information is, perhaps, the fastest speed method. Indeed, it takes less than 1 second to send a picture to your friend. However, in order to send large amounts of data, fundamentally different solutions are needed. Modern business, if we are talking about developed enterprises with a lot of workers, is in dire need of prompt exchange of large amounts of information. Generally, the effectiveness of commercial processes as a whole may depend on the speed of obtaining and processing important information.
Speed at all times was an indicator of progress. In ancient times, it took a lot of time and effort to migrate from place to place. Since the taming of animals, this process has begun to accelerate. Nowadays, the progress of high-speed transportation tools such as high-speed rail, freight trains, and freighters is constantly promoting the level of social productivity. If someone now asks to transport a few tons of goods from Beijing to Guangdong by carriage, the service provider is likely to say: "We do not deal with psychos!".
Speed has become the indicator of the progress of human civilization. Moreover, the transfer of information flow also requires increasing data transfer speed to develop towards modernization. If we think deeper of history, we can recall that 25 years ago, the information exchange we saw was carried out with the help of fax, floppy disk, and laser disk. With the help of innovative technology, the speed of information exchange has achieved great progress unimaginable in previous centuries in this field in just 25 years. Centralized cloud services began to act as data storage, and such an "invisible warehouse" provided storage and receiving capabilities without using bulky and expensive physical media.
But if we are talking about to deal with and transfer the important business information, the solutions mentioned above are actually useless. And the matter is not even in the absence of an adequate level of security of data transferred from public cloud storage, although this is also a very important aspect. Assume that some working servers of a large company need to be synchronized quickly to exchange information. If this operation is performed through the public cloud, it will take a lot of time for each server to download the relevant information. Especially for the financial, film and television, internet, and manufacturing industries, this method simply cannot meet the demand for data transfer.
Relied on the self-developed Raysync high-speed transfer engine and Raysync Proxy protocol, Raysync Transmission supports the mainstream cloud storage platforms. With the 10 Gigabit bandwidth, it can satisfy all your TB-level large file transfer and massive small file transfer needs. Under normal circumstances, the server works as a whole, which can receive and distribute data, and automatically connect storage and transfer as a unified whole, which works together without affecting each other.
In data security, Raysync Transmission adopts the bank-standard TLS+AES-256 encryption. In file management and control, the central control on access authorization, transfer monitoring, outgoing traceability, and other fine settings make the data completely transparent and traceable. Personalized settings add security to the whole process of file transfer and storage, which effectively promotes the business development of enterprises.
As approaching of 5G era, as the vanguard of data acceleration, Raysync Transmission will always provide efficient, safe, and stable file transfer solutions for enterprises.

Are you still using email or FTP for transferring files containing sensitive data or Personally Identifiable Information? If you are, we suggest you STOP what you are doing and take stock of your situation.
The Evolution of File Transfer
Historically, when it came to the internal and external information exchanging, companies had the following options:
- Email for transfer of files between people
- FTP for the automated exchange of large files with unstructured data between systems
The problem with email is that everything is sent in clear , so it is highly susceptible to intervention. FTP requires FTP meanwhile requires technical knowledge to both configure and maintain by way of having to write/manage a vast spaghetti-style landscape of scripts .
Until now, numerous alternatives have been introduced to solve the above data privacy and complexity implications, but do they solve the 'spaghetti' problem?
Let's have a closer look:
Alternatives to Email:
The most popular alternatives to Email are the file hosting service, which specially designed to host user files and provide the so-called 'file sync-and-share service'. In those service providers, you can find numerous secure data room and Content Collaboration Platform offerings, many of which have low-cost and even ‘cost-free’ consumer and business versions.
Alternatives to FTP:
FTP services can be replaced with WebDAV, SFTP, and SCP. Specialized large data streamers and data logistics offerings are based on these technologies, focussing on the controlled transfer of unstructured data and large files.
At first glance, it seems there may be enough alternatives to both email and FTP to help fix the spaghetti problem.
However, let's think about it carefully and it is easy to find that the root cause of the "spaghetti" problem is that the demand has not been really met. E-mail substitutes lack integration and can only be used for so-called "temporary" file transfers. The issue of management and authorization involves the security of enterprise core data and must be considered. However, FTP substitutes have limited integration capability and cannot fully integrate data logistics into business processes. They lack workflow, payload inspection, and conversion functions. When connecting to ERP and other systems in the enterprise, this will bring various difficulties.
In conclusion, those potential alternatives didn't solve the structure efficiency and security but only create even more dispersed solutions. To solve the problem of "spaghetti", an effective solution needs to give the answers to the following questions:
- How do I seamlessly integrate internal systems/applications for incoming and outgoing data?
- How can I secure governance and compliance for all sensitive data transfers ?
- How can I reduce the effort of onboarding a multitude of external partners?
- What about self-service capabilities for business departments and external partners to speed up such tasks and reduce the burden for central IT?
- How do I get secure connections to systems without state-of-the-art interfaces?
- How do I protect my intellectual property?
In the face of the above problems, Raysync Transmission has provided a satisfactory answer:

In July 2018, the popular file-sharing service DropBox gave Northwestern University ‘access to project-folder-related data’ over a two-year period from about 400,000 users across 1,000 universities.
Technical security of such electronic file-sharing systems has been breached and management failures have occurred from time to time. Whether it is for commercial purposes or other reasons, when it comes to file sharing services, we need to think about more than security.
There are other aspects to file-sharing that should be considered, namely:
1. privacy of the sharing mode
2. the geo-location of your data
3. the file sharing restriction
The file-sharing mode can be divided into two types, one is classical mode, the other is the guest mode. In the classical mode, the users has the right to manage the folders and files as the administrator. Open the guest account and set the sharing mode to guest only. In guest-only mode, the user's user name and password are only used to verify whether the user has permission to access the computer, and the operations on files and folders are performed as guest accounts. Although only relative aspects of guest mode are accessed, this mode is not convenient for fine control of permissions.
One of the important aspects to choose a file-sharing provider that should be considered is the geo-location of your data. The reliability and cost of the file transfer over long distances should also be considered. For many enterprises, it doesn't matter on which disk the business data is stored in the world, but unified management and comprehensive analysis need to take into account the importance of ensuring the integrity and security of shared files when exchanging personal or confidential data between continents and countries.
The security restriction reveals in two places of file-sharing. The first place is that when sharing is enabled, the corresponding account needs to be assigned the right to access this computer from the network. Account A has added the right here, so when sharing is enabled, the user name A can be entered to open sharing, otherwise, it will be prompted that there is no right to access network resources. Therefore, any problem that involves not being able to access the host because of permissions is a problem of sharing permissions. The second place is NTFS permissions for shared folders and their subfolders, which are set in the security tab of the folder's properties. The permissions control a user's operating permissions on folders and files. Therefore, any problem that files cannot be added, deleted, or modified is set here.
As a professinal enterprise-level solutions provider in file sharing, Raysync Transmission has a different working model. Our view on such issues is that not only should your files be kept safe, but also your usage patterns and sharing permissions should be controlled by yourself. As an expert providing the one-stop enterprise-level large file transmission solution, banking-standard security encryption, intelligent synchronization, flexible authorization, high-speed and stable cross-border and cross-regional transmission are the foundation of Raatsync Transmission.
