Ipswitch has released a new version of WS_FTP Server. There are now two versions of their secure file transfer server available:
• WS_FTP Server
• WS_FTP Server 6 with SSH
I love the new web-based administration … and from a security perspective, 256-bit AES encryption over SSL, SSH, FTPS & SFTP protocols and SHA-512 file integrity are stronger than any other file transfer server on the market.
The best part is that the encryption strength of WS_FTP Server now matches the encryption strength of the WS_FTP Professional file transfer client so using the two components together will ensure you’re getting the strongest security available.
You can see a ton of screenshots and download a free 30-day trial.
I also saw a few juicy promotions on their website:
• Buy two licenses of WS_FTP Server 6 and save $295
• Buy two licenses of WS_FTP Server 6 with SSH and save $795
• Buy any WS_FTP server product (including buying an upgrade to the new release) and get a FREE license of my favorite file transfer client, WS_FTP Professional
Release highlights include:
• Faster FTP transfers and improved scalability
• Transfer files over FTP, SSL & SSH protocols
• Industry-leading 256-bit AES encryption
• Uncompromised file integrity with SHA-512
• High availability architecture for clustering & load balancing
• Stronger password policies including auto-expiration
• Customizable logging of transfers and admin activity
You should definitely give the new WS_FTP Server a try if you manage your own secure file transfer server. Give the 30-day trial a whirl.
