TFTP isn't secure. Think of TFTP as FTP-light. Zero authentication. Zero encryption. 100% insecure.

I've got a question on my SY0-501 Security+ exam with a question to me has an incorrect answer. &nbsp;The question is<br />
&quot;A security Admin wishes to implement a secure method of file transfer when communicating with outside organizations.&quot;<br />
<br />
&quot;Which of the following protocols would BEST facilitate secure file transfer? (Select TWO)&quot;<br />
A: SCP<br />
B: TFTP<br />
C: SNMP<br />
D: FTP<br />
E: SMTP<br />
F: FTPS<br />

I choose SCP, &amp;&nbsp;FTPS, which according to exam prep is incorrect, it states that TFTP should be used. Is this look correct? &nbsp;I know TFTP is NOT secure.

SY0-501

The File Transfer Program (FTP) is a standard network protocol used to transfer computer files between a client and server on a computer network. Built on a client-server model architecture, it separates control and data connections between the client and the server. Users may access the server through a sign-in protocol, typically in the form of a username and password.

Security is the protection of information systems from theft or damage to the hardware, the software, and the information on them, as well as from disruption or misdirection of the services they provide. The main goal of security is protecting assets, and an asset is anything of value and worthy of protection.  Information Security is a discipline of protecting information assets from threats through safeguards to achieve the objectives of confidentiality, integrity, and availability or CIA for short. On the other hand, disclosure, alteration, and disruption (DAD) compromise the security objectives.
