Hi
I have a FTP receiver scenario which has FTPS using control and data connection and the third party has given both the private and public key to be loaded into trusted CA.
since it is important data, we wanted to be secure.
But it seems like the connectivity works and transmissions are happening even though i have not checked the x.509 for client authentication.
Does it mean it is not secure ? The network team confirmed that the trace shows FTPS only.
Am bit confused on what the use of certificate then?
Hi Sam,
When PI try to establish FTPS connection first it will check the target server is trusted or not by scanning all the certificates in TrastedCA in NWA and you already imported the server public key so this connection established successfully.
After connection established you can authenticate FTPS using two ways
If you don't select the certificate then it is user based authentication as you currently connecting, if you want to authenticate by certificate then you need to select the certificate in the channel but both are FTPS only and secure.

Praveen.

Hello Sam,
If its FTPS it will work with certificate only,thats why it is secured.
In the channel are you sure you didnt check the certificate authentication?
