You're tasked with ensuring secure file transfers within your organization. Which protocol(s) would you recommend and why?

SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol) is recommended for secure file transfers because it encrypts both authentication information and data being transferred. This ensures that sensitive files are protected from unauthorized access during transmission. FTPS also provides secure file transfer, but it requires additional configurations such as SSL certificates, making it more complex to set up and maintain compared to SFTP. HTTPS is primarily used for secure web communications, not file transfers. AS2 is a protocol specifically designed for secure and reliable data interchange over the Internet, but it may not be as commonly implemented as SFTP for general file transfers within an organization.
