SecureFX 7.3 adds the dockable session manager to Mac and Linux versions for quick connection to sessions in the SecureFX window. An import/export tool makes it easier to backup and copy settings, and a PGP transfer mode automates the encryption and decryption process. Also new is an option to display filenames using UTF-8 encoding, the ability to resume interrupted transfers with SFXCL, and support for larger encryption keys.

Here are some of the new features in SecureFX 7.3:

Session Manager for Mac/Linux

Quickly connect to sessions in the SecureFX window with the dockable session manager. The Session Manager pane can be docked in any position on the right, left, top, or bottom of the SecureFX window or undocked as a modeless dialog.  The “classic” Connect dialog is still supported.

Import/export tool

An import/export tool makes it easier to create a backup or copy SecureFX settings from one machine to another.

PGP transfer mode

PGP transfer mode allows files to be automatically encrypted prior to uploading or decrypted after downloading.

SFXCL resume option

A new “resume” option allows interrupted transfers to be resumed.

Other enhancements

Generate/BULLET.gif    Support for larger keys: Keys larger than 2048 bits can be generated and stored in agent, improving security.

Generate/BULLET.gif    Display Filenames using UTF-8: The session option, Display Filenames using UTF-8 encoding, specifies that files should always be displayed in UTF-8, which is useful when filenames contain international characters.

Generate/BULLET.gif    %USERNAME% substitution parameter: The ability to specify the substitution parameter %USERNAME% as a session username makes it easier to create shareable sessions.
