==SCP==
SCP stands for [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_copy "Secure Copy"]. Like SFTP it uses the SSH protocol to encrypt data being transferred. It does not support synchronization like [[Globus]] or [[Transferring_data#Rsync|rsync]]. Some examples of SCP use are shown [http://www.hypexr.org/linux_scp_help.php here].
SCP supports an option, <code>-r</code>, to recursively transfer a set of directories and files. We '''recommend against using <code>scp -r</code>''' to transfer data into <code>/project</code>. The setgid bit is turned off in the created directories, which may lead to <code>Disk quota exceeded</code> or similar errors if files are later created there.
