• "Secure Source File Transfer Client" aka SFTP
  Used to transfer files to the WISE web server. You can upload and download files by using an intuitive, graphical user interface similar in functionality to Windows Explorer.
  
• "Secure Shell Client" aka SSH
  Used to edit files on the WISE system directly. It is the secure replacement for Telnet connections. It offers a command line interface to the remote host computer. You would also use SSH to change your password on the WISE.
