SecureFX

Details

SecureFX description
Secure file transfer client with support for SSH2, SFTP, and standard FTP SecureFX is a 32-bit WinSock application for Windows 95/98/NT that makes file transfer with FTP easy and secure.
SecureFX lets you choose between SFTP, standard FTP, and secure data transfer with FTP over an encrypted SSH2 connection using the Secure Shell protocol.
SecureFX's SSH2 encryption protects both your login and data transfer the way standard FTP can't. SecureFX has a familiar Windows Explorer interface with predefined sites, a New Site Wizard and customizable file types to automate complex transfers.
SecureFX is a file transfer tool that allows you to transfer file easy and secure.
SecureFX also has advanced FTP features like multiple simultaneous connections, server-to-server transfers, interrupted transfer resume, and site synchronization.
With SecureFX it’s easier than ever to perform secure file transfers. Establish a secure connection with a mouse click, or type a server name in the Quick Connect dialog, and then drag and drop files to and from the server and your desktop, Windows Explorer, and other applications. Or perform fully automated, unattended file transfers with the SFXCL command-line utility. "Relentless" file transfers automatically reconnect and resume transfers when connections are broken, and Quick Sync provides one-click synchronization between your local files and server.
With the tree-based session manager, arrange hundreds of sites any way
you like. The Activator tray utility reduces desktop clutter and allows you to access any open sessions from one convenient menu. Named sessions allow you to save preferences for individual sites. Named firewalls can be used on a session-specific basis so that you can work from multiple locations with different firewalls. SecureFX also provides support for IPv6 and the ability to run multiple instances of the application.
SecureFX supports AES, Twofish, Blowfish, 3DES, and RC4 ciphers. Authentication methods include password, public-key, and X.509 certificate authentication, as well as Kerberos v5 authentication via GSSAPI. RSA and DSA key formats are supported for host keys and public keys.
If you need both terminal emulation and file transfer, SecureCRT(R) and SecureFX share session options so configuring a server connection only needs to be done once. Or for a complete file transfer solution, combine SecureFX with the VShell(R) server to provide fine-tuned file transfer privileges on a user or group basis.
Here are some key features of "SecureFX":
· Improved auto session
With "Use auto session" enabled, you can now select a single session, multiple sessions, or folders of sessions to automatically connect on startup.
· Cache passwords
SSH2 session passwords can be cached like passphrases. SecureCRT and SecureFX can share passwords while either application or the Activator utility is running.
· Improved integration with SecureCRT
A new toolbar button lets you launch SecureCRT from within SecureFX. If the current session specifies a terminal protocol, that session will open in SecureCRT.
· Improved automation support
SFXCL now includes an /AcceptHostKeys option, making it easier to run SFXCL unattended.
· Transfer queue enhancements
SecureFX now supports dragging files to the transfer queue, resizing the tranfrer queue window, and hiding and showing columns.
· Support for OpenSSH format keys
You can now generate keys in OpenSSH format or convert existing VanDyke Software format private keys to OpenSSH format, allowing you to use the same keys with other Secure Shell clients.
· Support for zlib@openssh.com compression
When zlib@openssh.com compression is specified, compression starts after authentication, preventing unencrypted passwords from being cached by the zlib library.
· Windows Vista support
SecureFX has been tested under Windows Vista, so when you are ready to move to Vista, SecureFX will be compatible.
Security
· User authentication
SecureFX supports password, public key (RSA and DSA), and Kerberos (via GSSAPI) when connecting to SSH2 servers.
· Public Key Assistant
Public Key Assistant allows easy and secure upload of public keys to the server.
· Data encryption
Select from a wide selection of ciphers including: AES, Twofish, Blowfish, 3DES, and RC4 to ensure strong data encryption.
· Data integrity
Guarantee the integrity of each message sent over the network (preventing replay or insertion attacks).
· Host identity verification
Unique server host key proves its identity to a client as a "known" host (preventing a man in the middle attack).
· X.509 certificate user authentication support
Smart card-based public-key authentication using X.509-compatible certificates supports highly secure two-factor authentication.
· GSSAPI support
Support for GSSAPI secured key exchange for SSH2 connections. Mechanisms supported depend on GSSAPI provider. Only the Kerberos v5 mechanism has been tested. For SSH2 connections, the Server Principal Name (SPN) can be specified in the GSSAPI Properties dialog.
File Transfer
· Multiple protocol support
SecureFX supports SSH2 SFTP, FTP/SSL, and conventional FTP in a single client, providing the maximum in flexibility when connecting to a range of remote servers.
· Protocol updates
Support for SFTP through version 6.
· Site synchronization
Select local and remote folders, choose from upload, download, and mirror options, then fine tune file selection in the synchronization window.
· Multiple simultaneous connections and transfers
Set up all of your connections and transfers in one SecureFX application window — avoid cluttering your desktop
· Complete upload control
No surprise accidental overwrites of files on the remote host with SecureFX's support to prompt on upload overwrites.
· "Relentless" file transfer
Automatically reconnect after a broken connection and resume the transfer.
· Resume file transfers
Resumes transfer of one or more files — saves time, especially with large files.
· Move files
Transfer and delete files in one step with the /Move flag in the SFXCL command-line utility. Drag-and-drop move is also supported by holding down the ALT key.
· Transfer queue
When connected to a host, you can now queue up files to be transferred. Transfers are done serially, preventing errors if the remote FTP server doesn't allow multiple connections.
· FTP server support
A wide range of FTP servers is supported by SecureFX including MVS, VMS, NT, UNIX, and many others.
· SFTP ASCII file transfer option
Text format files can be sent as raw text rather than in binary format for more compatible transfers of files like HTML and server logs between different operating systems.
Ease of Use
· Drag-and-drop from Windows Explorer
SecureFX allows you to drag-and-drop files between a remote server and your desktop, Windows Explorer, and other applications like WinZip.
· Windows Explorer look and feel
Familiar interface that is easy to learn and navigate.

Application
· Integration with SecureCRT
SecureFX and SecureCRT can share the global options, session options, and the host key database so you only need to perform operations like setting application defaults, sessions settings, or accepting a server's host key once. Both SecureCRT and SecureFX sessions are displayed on the Activator menu. SecureCRT and SecureFX can share passwords and passphrases while either application or the Activator utility is running.
· Activator session manager
Activator will display all of your current SecureFX and SecureCRT sessions in one handy menu. Activator also acts as an SSH agent so that passphrases only have to be entered once per key as long as Activator is running.

· Site organization
Create custom sessions and organize them in the Connect dialog in any order as well as alphabetically. Use friendly site names, move sites anywhere in the site tree, and copy/paste site definitions.
· Busy site retry
Automatically reconnects to sites that refuse an initial connection because of too many users.
· Quote commands
Send server-specific commands beyond the standard FTP set.
· Keep-alive option
Keeps connection busy when not in active use to prevent it from being disconnected by a server.
