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. -

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. -

OnionShare
Securely and anonymously share files of any size
OnionShare is an open source tool that allows you to securely and anonymously share files of any size, host websites, and chat with friends using the Tor network. There's no need for middlemen that could very well violate the privacy and security of the things you share online. With OnionShare, you can share files directly with just an address in Tor Browser. OnionShare works because it is accessible as a Tor Onion Service. All you need to do is open it and drag and drop the files you want to share into it, and start sharing. It will then generate an unguessable address which the recipient can open in the Tor Browser to download the files; they won't even need their own OnionShare. -
