Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Both FTPS (formerly known as FTP over TLS/SSL) and SFTP (technically named the SSH2 File Transfer Protocol) are considered secure file transfer protocols.

Detailed explanation-2: -FTP with implicit SSL/TLS uses two different ports for the FTP service. In this mode, FTP offers an unsecured service on port 21, and a secured service on port 990. All secured sessions are conducted on port 990. FTP with explicit SSL/TLS uses the same port (21) for both unsecured and secured services.

Detailed explanation-3: -FTPS (FTP over SSL) is a secure FTP protocol that allows you to protect and exchange files with trading partners, employees, and clients. Like SFTP, FTPS also implements strong algorithms like AES and Triple DES to encrypt critical file transfers.
