What is SFTPGo? #
SFTPGo is a managed, event-driven file transfer solution. SFTPGo abstracts storage backends(local filesystems, cloud, and SFTP servers) and provides access to files through its built-in WebClient (supports SFTP, SCP, FTP/S, WebDAV, HTTP/S, REST API).
Why Should You Use the SFTPGo Connector? #
The SFTPGo connector provides visibility into the files and assets in your environment. You can use this visibility to:
-
ensure files and assets are managed per your security policies
-
derive relationships between assets, users, applications, and data
How Does This Connector Work? #
Lucidum executes read-only requests to the SFTPGo REST API and ingests only meta-data about SFTPGo results. Lucidum does not retrieve any data stored on your assets.
