The following tools can be used to transfer data within Computa Canada resources or to and from external computers:
* Secure copy [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_copy scp] (examples [http://www.hypexr.org/linux_scp_help.php here])
* [[Transferring_data#SFTP | SFTP]]
* [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rsync rsync]
==Between Compute Canada resources== <!--T:3-->
[[Globus]] is the preferred tool for transferring data between Compute Canada systems, and if it can be used, it should.
==To and from your personal computer== <!--T:1-->
==To and from your personal computer== <!--T:1-->
You will need software that supports secure transfer of files between your computer and the Compute Canada machines. The commands <code>scp</code> and <code>sftp</code> can be used in a command-line environment on '''Linux''' or '''Mac''' OS X computers. On '''Microsoft Windows''' platforms, [https://docs.computecanada.ca/wiki/Connecting_with_MobaXTerm/en MobaXterm] offers both a graphical file transfer function and a [[Linux introduction|command-line]] interface via [[SSH]], while [http://winscp.net/eng/index.php WinSCP] is another free program that supports file transfer. [https://docs.computecanada.ca/wiki/Connecting_with_PuTTY/en PuTTY] comes with <code>pscp</code> and <code>psftp</code> which are essentially the same as the Linux and Mac command line programs.

If it takes more than one minute to move your files to or from Compute Canada servers, we recommend you install and try [[Globus#Personal_Computers|Globus Personal Connect]]. [[Globus]] transfers can be set up and will go on in the background without you. Most Compute Canada legacy systems can be reached with Globus.

However, other common tools can also be found for transferring data both inside and outside of Compute Canada, including
* Secure copy [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_copy scp] (examples [http://www.hypexr.org/linux_scp_help.php here])
* [[Transferring_data#SFTP | SFTP]]
