Protocol Summary

FTP	No secure connection.
FTP over SSL (Explicit)	Explicit security requires that the FTP client issues a specific command to the FTP server after establishing a connection to establish the SSL link. The default FTP server port is used. This formal method is documented in RFC 2228. Wikipedia: FTPS
FTP over SSL (Implicit)	Implicit security is a mechanism by which security is automatically turned on as soon as the FTP client makes a connection to an FTP server. In this case, the FTP server defines a specific port for the client (990) to be used for secure connections. Wikipedia: FTPS Note: Implicit is deprecated.
SFTP over SSH	Wikipedia: SSH file transfer protocol

SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is a protocol for transmitting data between a client and a server  via the Internet that uses a cryptographic system designed to prevent eavesdropping, tampering and message forgery that might occur during a regular FTP transfer.
