Disable FTP Access

Описание

File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a protocol designed to transfer files between networked devices. Often, MFDs allow users to upload print jobs and print files. Some MFDs also provide the ability to upload files (e.g. scanned documents) to a file server. It is recommended that this access mechanism be disabled. The use of this protocol may create exposures to threats against the integrity of the MFD’s configuration, the confidentiality of authentication credentials used by the administrator, and the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data traversing the MFD. Given this, it is recommended that FTP services be disabled. The use of FTP over SSH (SFTP) or FTP over TLS/SSL (FTPS) is recommended in place of FTP. SFTP and FTPS mitigate the confidentiality and integrity threats that affect FTP.
