    I want to automate the file transfer from a remote site to my pc over a WAN. Can anyone please suggest an industry standard secure file transfer tool for a windows environment?

    I am looking for an industry accepted, more secure than traditional FTP.
    Thanks!

    Posting this somewhere other than Off Topic (OT) would fetch you better results. I personally don't know how to go about doing it.

    SFTP or SCP would be the best ways to do it. As far as applications that will let you.. there are many different ways to do it and you'd have to do the research yourself to decide. FileZilla has an FTP server and client, and might be scriptable. There's also cygwin/ssh which will let you use scp.

    Yeah! There are lots of secure file transfer tools are available on the net that can solve your problems. I know one among of them called JSCAPE Secure FTP Server.
    It provides reliable and secure file transfers between internal and remote users, business partners and customers across corporate networks and the Internet. Secure file transfer is paramount in protecting critical, confidential enterprise data from would-be intruders as the data is transmitted over the Internet.
    Hope this will help you!
    All the best!
