Yes, it is working good, but for security reasons, you need to use

data is not exposed somewhere.

Of course. Unless you are in a system setup where source and destination 
machines are locked up properly inside a [closed/fire-walled] network.

Oh, that is not good enough. Say, you transfer something from a secure / locked 
up system to a [unprotected] PC. Now some person inserts a USB stick into it 
and steal your data after that transfer. 


>Only now, this protocol is unsure???? 

What protocol is 'unsure'? FTP? SFTP? or FTPS?

Rather, please post what you are needing to resolve your problem.

Of course, secure transfers come with a price, time, setup and testing.
