You also have full access to the creation of users and groups with FileZilla Server, which means you can throttle bandwidth for some users and not others and provide select users with permissions like read/write, but others with only read access. It's also effortless to take your server offline or quickly lock the FTP server with one click to ensure that no new connections to your server can be made until you unlock it. Some security features include auto-banning an IP address if it fails to login successfully after so many attempts, an option to enable FTP over TLS with the ability to disallow unencrypted FTP, and IP filtering so that you can prevent certain IP addresses or IP address ranges from connecting to your FTP server. You can choose which ports the program should listen on, how many users can be connected to your server at once, the number of CPU threads the server can use, and timeout settings for connections, transfers, and logins. It can administer a local server as well as a remote FTP server.
