SSL/TLS Connections (FTP Client)

The Secure Sockets Layer protocol (SSL) and its compatible successor, the Transport Layer Security protocol (TLS), enable a client and server to establish a secure, encrypted connection over a public network. When you connect using SSL/TLS, the client authenticates the server before making a connection, and all data passed between the client and the server is encrypted. Depending on the server configuration, the server may also authenticate the client.
