The sftp command (Secure File Transfer Program) is an SFTP client for Unix-like Operating Systems.

Contrary to its name, sftp does not uses the Secure File Transfer Protocol (or FTP over SSH) but it uses the SSH File Transfer Protocol.

sftp has been developed by Damien Miller, who is also the main developer of OpenSSH
