Security and auditing
AbleFtp lets you configure secure channels (FTPS/SFTP) to protect data in transit. Combined with its logging functionality, the application provides visibility into who transferred what and when, which is useful for compliance or post-mortem analysis.
Who it’s best for

Free alternative
