What Wing FTP Server is
Wing FTP Server is server software for transferring files and administering servers remotely. It supports FTP, FTPS, SFTP and transfers through a web client, where users can upload and download files, download folders and edit office documents. Weblinks and upload links let people receive or send files without logging in. Administrators can use Event Manager to run Lua scripts, send email notifications or launch third-party programs, while Task Scheduler can run Lua tasks at set times. User data can be held in XML, ODBC or MySQL, and authentication supports Windows AD and LDAP. Security controls include IP rules, password policies, scheduled login access, brute-force prevention and TOTP two-factor authentication for the web client. The maker says the software supports FIPS 140-2 and FIPS 140-3 validated cryptographic modules. FTP transactions can be captured in a database for analysis and reports. Clustering with the separately named Wing Gateway can distribute connections. The free edition allows one domain, 10 accounts and 10 connections; Standard Edition is $199 a month.
