Secure File Transfer Protocol Addendum

SECURED FILE TRANSFER PROTOCOL (SFTP) SERVICE

The Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) Service enables secure file transfer capabilities between networked hosts.

SFTP additionally provides remote file system management functionality, allowing applications to resume interrupted file transfers, list the contents of remote directories, and delete remote files.

  1. Security. A Site ID and Password will be delivered that will provide access to the site through the SFTP process. Customer will assume responsibility for the use and confidentiality of such Site ID and Password, and such access to the data on the SFTP server through use of the Site ID and Password. Bank or its provider may suspend or revoke the access granted to the Site at any time at its sole discretion.
  2. Data Security. Enterprise grade encryption is used for data security with all transmissions. The IP address must meet authorized requirements for approved transmission options.
