What is vsftpd?

Vsftpd is the most popular FTP server program in the Linux distribution. It is characterized by small and light, safe and easy to use.

The name vsftpd stands for "very secure FTP daemon", and security is one of the top concerns of its developer Chris Evans. At the beginning of the design and development of this FTP server, high security was a goal.
