How to configure an SFTP client for Game servers
SFTP, or Secure File Transfer Protocol, is a secure and encrypted method for managing VolticHost game servers with
enhanced security. It provides a higher security level than traditional FTP, as it encrypts both the commands and data
being transferred, preventing unauthorized access and eavesdropping. SFTP's solid security features and ease of use make
it an essential tool for server administrators to ensure the safe and efficient transfer of files across networks and
servers.
Note: Depending on the operating system, the recommended FTP clients are:
Windows - FileZilla | OtherOS - FileZilla
