Everything you need to know
What is a cloud SFTP server?
A cloud SFTP server is a managed secure file transfer endpoint hosted in the cloud. It allows organizations to transfer files securely over SSH without operating their own OpenSSH infrastructure.
Cloud SFTP server vs self-hosted SFTP server
| Feature | Self-hosted SFTP server | Cloud SFTP server |
|---|---|---|
| SSH server setup | Manual installation & configuration | Ready instantly |
| Security maintenance | Internal responsibility | Managed platform |
| Authentication management | Custom SSH configuration | Built-in support |
| Encryption | Depends on configuration | Enabled by default |
| Reliability | Depends on infrastructure | Built for production workloads |
| Operational overhead | High | Minimal |
Why use a cloud based SFTP server?
Operating secure file transfer infrastructure internally requires ongoing server administration, patching and security management. A cloud SFTP server removes that operational complexity while keeping compatibility with standard SFTP workflows and enterprise systems.
Built for secure business file transfers
ftpGrid is designed for organizations where secure file exchange is part of daily operations. It provides stable encrypted connectivity for automation, integrations, backups and business-critical workflows.
Support for modern SSH authentication
ftpGrid supports enterprise-friendly authentication methods including:
- SSH-ED25519 key authentication
