I am quite new in learning Networking and stuff related to Servers. I have a question about FTP server security. Please forgive me if it is too simple. I have signed up for FTP server and I uploaded a file. The URL of the file is zanubvideos.ezyro.com/Shortest.mp4. And anyone, who have this URL can access my file anytime anywhere. And I think this has made my file insecure, Isn't it? Then how can we say that FTP is secure? Please correct me if I am wrong.

  • There are secure protocols like SFTP and FTPS, and FTP can configure to deny anonymous access too – Yu Jiaao Apr 10 '17 at 12:32
  • But I need my files to be accessed by people who use my app. For your information, my app is supposed to access the files which I upload in FTP server and show it to the user. But the problem is that those files can be accessed by anyone. – user7808679 Apr 10 '17 at 12:52
  • Welcome to Stack Overflow. This is not a programming question. See [help/on-topic]. – Martin Prikryl Apr 10 '17 at 13:07
