Security
The FTP protocol has limited security, as all user/passwords are send without
any encryption on the TCP Network level.
We can recommend only to use FTP in a secure network, and not on open networks.
User names/passwords defined in Mocha FTP Server, are stored in the registry, and
are not secure.
