SecureCRT + SecureFX
SecureCRT uses a secure connection protocol (Secure Shell SSH version 2) to access remote UNIX applications from Windows. This includes access to your Stanford UNIX account for reading email, running UNIX applications, publishing personal web pages and sharing files.
SecureFX allows you to transfer files to and from a UNIX server. Configuring SecureFX for an SFTP connection lets you transfer files directly to Stanford's distributed network of UNIX computers while encrypting both your password and all transmitted information.
