【 摘 要 】

With the recent advances in technology, the creation and access to voluminous amounts of data has become more and more common. From consumer computers and smartphones to big data, the transfer of data entailed a longer download and upload time as the size gets bigger, thus taking a significant amount of time for data to reach its destination. Moreover, data can be corrupted as it is being transferred over the network and most file transfer protocols do not have a file integrity check. Lastly, most file transfer protocols employ the RSA cryptosystem which can be broken through the use of a quantum algorithm known as Shor's algorithm. The proponents have implemented a file transfer protocol that integrates file hashing, compression, and a quantum-resilient cryptosystem. The results show that the proposed file transfer protocol is faster than plain FTP and even faster against FTP over TLS.
