Using encrypted FTPS to securely transfer files

Here's a great story about four aspiring students who have plans to make a splash in the Film industry. Their grant sounds like a great opportunity.... and I love how they are solving their long-distance problems with secure FTPS. (FTPS is encrypted file transfer over the SSL protocol).

"One of the main challenges the filmmakers say they face is working through distance. We’re doing this over the Internet, which created some issues.... But we’re getting over them through using FTPS. As each filmmaker finishes a part of the film — whether it be animatics, flash, or part of the script — they put their files on a server for a limited amount of time so the others can go online, take a look, and make notes."

Great luck with the film!
