SecureFX®

SecureFX meets your evolving file transfer needs with a single application that lets you choose between SFTP using an encrypted SSH2 connection or FTP over SSL (TLS) for secure transfers, or standard FTP for nonsecure transfers. It has a simple Explorer-like interface, so it's easy to learn and use while offering powerful automation capabilities for unattended, secure file transfers.

SecureFX 6.0 introduces new features that save you valuable time like quick synchronize support for mirroring with delete, an editable address bar showing the current path of local or remote sessions, and the ability to resolve symbolic links. User interface enhancements include Windows display themes and drag-and-drop customization of toolbar and menu items. Other new features are a combined installer for SecureFX and SecureCRT®, support for U3 smart drives, and MSI installers to simplify and automate distribution and installation.



New for SecureFX 6.0

New time saving features:

  • Quick synchronize mirror with delete: Automatically delete files or folders that are not on the source from the destination, allowing you to exactly match the destination and source. This is also supported in SFXCL.
  • Address bar: An editable address bar shows the current path of the local or remote session as well as a history of the most recently used paths, allowing you to navigate easily between paths, type paths, or copy and paste paths to and from the clipboard.
  • Default transfer type is used when type is "Unknown": This option tells SecureFX to automatically use the default transfer type when the type is Unknown, instead of a displaying a prompt dialog, so that there are fewer transfer interruptions.
  • Resolve symbolic links: Select this option to automatically resolve symbolic links.
  • Use environment variables in paths: You can now use environment variables like APPDATA, TEMP, and USERPROFILE in paths specified in SecureFX global and session options, making it easier to move/copy settings to other machines and to create configurations that will work for multiple users.

Improved user interface:

  • New toolbar and menu bar themes: The toolbar and menu bar now use Windows display themes.
  • Customize the toolbar and menu: New dialog supports dragging and dropping toolbar and menu items, so that it's easy to modify the menu and toolbar to suit your needs.

New installer options:

  • Support for U3 smart drives: When installed to a U3 smart drive using the SecureFX U3 installer, SecureFX saves configuration and settings to the U3 drive, making it completely portable.
  • Combined installer for SecureFX and SecureCRT: An installer that installs both SecureFX and SecureCRT is now available. Both clients and their shared DLLs are installed into the same folder, making it easy to install SecureFX and SecureCRT and keep them in sync.
  • MSI installers: MSI support allows you to distribute the applications through your distributions server using Group Policy and to automate installs through SMS or other install programs.

Check for product updates: An optional monthly pop-up dialog allows you to check for product updates.

Key Features
  • Drag and drop: SecureFX allows you to drag and drop (or copy and paste) files to and from Windows Explorer, the desktop, and other applications (e.g., WinZip), letting you transfer files more easily.
  • Integration with SecureCRT: SecureFX and SecureCRT can share the global options, session options, and the host key database so you only need to perform operations like setting application defaults, sessions settings, or accepting a server's host key once. SecureCRT and SecureFX can share passwords and passphrases while either application or the Activator utility is running, and both SecureCRT and SecureFX sessions are displayed on the Activator menu. Launch either application from a toolbar button and specify a session to connect to. A combined installer is available that installs both clients and their DLLs into the same folder, making it easy to install SecureCRT and SecureFX and keep them in sync.
  • Multi-file transfers: Support for resuming multiple-file transfers. All remaining files in the transfer list are completed after a broken connection is reestablished.
  • File permission tools: Support for changing permissions on multiple files at once. When connected to VShell® for Windows version 2.2 or higher, the Properties dialog for the remote file or folder has a Security tab that allows ACL permissions to be viewed.
  • FIPS 140-2 support: When the administrative option to run in "FIPS Mode" is set, SecureFX uses a FIPS 140-2 validated cryptographic library and only allows FIPS-approved algorithms.
