title: Secure FTP using Windows batch script
body: <p>I currently have batch scripts on different servers that transfer a csv file to an FTP server at a different location. My script looks similar to this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>echo user ftp_user&gt; ftpcmd.dat
  echo password&gt;&gt; ftpcmd.dat
  echo put c:\directory\%1-export-%date%.csv&gt;&gt; ftpcmd.dat
  echo quit&gt;&gt; ftpcmd.dat
  ftp -n -s:ftpcmd.dat ftp.MyFTPSite.com
  del ftpcmd.dat
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>If I wanted to require a secure transmission, is how would my script be updated?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
