This video tutorial covers three file transfer protocols: FTP, SFTP, and TFTP. FTP is a standard protocol for transferring files over a TCP/IP network, often used for sharing files via dedicated servers or personal computers configured as servers. It can be accessed through web browsers or FTP clients like FileZilla. However, FTP lacks security as data is transferred in clear text. SFTP, or Secure File Transfer Protocol, adds encryption and authentication, using port 22 for secure data transfer. Lastly, TFTP is a simple protocol used within local networks, primarily for transferring configuration files and firmware to network devices. Unlike FTP and SFTP, TFTP uses UDP, making it less reliable and secure.
