UFTP
Encrypted UDP based FTP with multicast
UFTP is an encrypted multicast file transfer program, designed to securely, reliably, and efficiently transfer files to multiple receivers simultaneously. This is useful for distributing large files to a large number of receivers, and is especially useful for data distribution over a satellite link (with two way communication), where the inherent delay makes any TCP based communication highly inefficient. The multicast encryption scheme is based on TLS with extensions to allow multiple receivers to share a common key. UFTP also has the capability to communicate over disjoint networks separated by one or more firewalls (NAT traversal) and without full end-to-end multicast capability (multicast tunneling) through the use of a UFTP proxy server. These proxies also provide scalability by aggregating responses from a group of receivers. -

croc
Easily and securely send things from one computer to another
Yet another way to transfer files that strikes a good balance between speed, security or simplicity by using relay-assisted peer-to-peer transactions and end-to-end encryption via password-authenticated key exchange. There are a lot of ways to transfer files. Above the basic necessity of preserving the data during the transfer, sharing data should be fast, secure, and most of all, easy. Most file transfer utilities I’ve used encompass two thirds of these qualities. I’ve wanted to make a utility that encompasses all three, without compromising any one of them. A common way to transfer a file is to first upload data to a server, and then, once uploaded, the link is shared with someone who goes to download it. This method is easy, but slow, the transfer rate of the file is half the harmonic mean of the upload and download speeds which makes it slower than either just uploading or downloading. -

distribyted
Torrent client with HTTP, fuse, and WebDAV interfaces
Distribyted is an alternative torrent client. It can expose torrent files as a standard FUSE mount or webDAV endpoint and download them on demand, allowing random reads using a fixed amount of disk space. Distribyted supports several ways to expose the files to the user or external applications. Applications that supports WebDAV can access torrent files using this protocol. It is recommended when distribyted is running in a remote machine or using docker. Distribyted can show some kind of files directly as folders, making it possible for applications to read only the parts that they need. Here is a list of supported, to-be-supported, and not supported formats. Play multimedia files on your favorite video or audio player. These files will be downloaded on demand and only the needed parts. -

qrcp
Transfer files over wifi from your computer to your mobile device
qrcp binds a web server to the address of your Wi-Fi network interface on a random port and creates a handler for it. The default handler serves the content and exits the program when the transfer is complete. When used to receive files, qrcp serves an upload page and handles the transfer. Most QR apps can detect URLs in decoded text and act accordingly (i.e. open the decoded URL with the default browser), so when the QR code is scanned the content will begin downloading by the mobile browser. When sending multiple files at once, qrcp creates a zip archive of the files or folders you want to transfer, and deletes the zip archive once the transfer is complete. When receiving files, qrcp serves an “upload page” through which you can choose files from your mobile. The default configuration file is stored in $HOME/qrcp.json, however, you can specify the location of the config file by passing the --config flag. -

remotefs
A client library to work with all file transfer protocols
remotefs is a library that provides a file system structure to work with all the most popular file transfer protocols. This is achieved through a trait called RemoteFs which exposes methods to operate on the remote file system. Currently, the library exposes a client for Sftp, Scp, Ftp and Aws-s3 as external libraries. You might be wondering, "why remotefs?" The first and foremost reason is to provide a generic interface over multiple protocols. For example, in termscp it allows the support of multiple protocols without any protocol-specific code. The second reason is that often, users just want a simple way to operate on a remote file system, however, they don't have the time to spend researching the ins and outs of each protocol. -
