sftp is a command-line interface client program——to transfer files using the——SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP), which runs inside the encrypted Secure Shell connection.
It provides an interactive interface similar——to that of traditional command-line FTP clients.
One common implementation of sftp is part of the OpenSSH project. There are other command-line SFTP clients that use different names, such as lftp, PSFTP and PSCP (from PuTTY package) and WinSCP.
