Secure FTP Server using FileZilla on Windows Server 2025

Secure FTP Server solution leverages the powerful and user-friendly FileZilla FTP Server installed on Windows Server 2025. This FTP solution is built using a modified version of Filezilla® server and enables organizations to securely transfer files across networks using FTPS (FTP over TLS/SSL) for added data protection. With Windows Server 2025's latest security features and FileZilla's robust FTP capabilities, this solution provides a reliable, scalable, and secure environment for file sharing and data transfers in enterprise settings.

Filezilla FTP Server supports TLS (Transport Layer Security), also known as FTPS, to provide encrypted and secure connections over FTP. TLS ensures that data transferred between the client and server is protected against eavesdropping, tampering, and message forgery. FileZilla Server's support for FTPS provides robust security through encrypted connections, certificate-based authentication, and configurable access controls.
