This is to ensure that the site will not be compromised by hackers trying to steal personal information. If you are running a website that requires credit card payment transactions, you will need to follow PCI compliance standards. SCP is a Secure connection over port 22 that allows only certain IP addresses to access the server the same as SFTP. SCP is Secure copy based off of the Secure Shell Protocol ( SSH). You can restrict certain IP addresses and allow certain IP addresses making the SSH port 22 open only to specific users. SFTP connects securely so the data is encrypted over the network. An SFTP connection uses port 22 through the command line or another SFTP client.
SFTP is SSH File Transfer Protocol, Secure File Transfer Protocol, or Secure FTP.
In order to accommodate these PCI compliance requirements, you can use SFTP or SCP to copy files from your local computer to your server. With the rise of security risks on Websites that process credit cards, some PCI compliance companies, like Trustwave are requiring FTP to be shut off and a different method of uploading and downloading files be used.
