One Comment on “Which of the following secure file transfer methods uses port 22 by default?”

Note: Do not confuse SFTP FTPS.
SFTP: “Secured” File Transfer Protocol
FTPS: File Transfer Protocol “Secured”
As a memorization tip, we must remember that “Security Comes First”
1. The S in SFTP stands for “Secured” and appears first. This means that SFTP is the most secured.
2. The S in FTPS appears last. This means that this is least secure
While FTPS adds a layer to the FTP protocol, SFTP is an entirely different protocol based on the network protocol SSH (Secure Shell) rather than FTP.
Unlike both FTP and FTPS, SFTP uses only one connection and encrypts both authentication information and data files being transferred
SSH uses TCP port 22. All protocols encrypted by SSH, including SFTP, SHTTP, SCP, SExec, and slogin, also use TCP port 22.
Note: Do not confuse SFTP FTPS.
