Kallidus supports public key authentication for SFTP data transfers.
Public key authentication allows you to connect to the Kallidus SFTP service without transmitting a password. Public key authentication uses two keys, a private key and a public key.
This functionality requires you to generate a key pair and provide Kallidus with the public key.
The SSH key you generate must follow these standards:
- OpenSSH2 key
- 4096-bit strength
- RSA format
- Passphrase accepted, but not required
You can use tools like ssh-keygen or PuTTYgen to generate your SSH key pair. If using PuTTYgen use the Save public key button to Export OpenSSH key to export the public key.
Please only provide Kallidus with the public key.
