It is the most popular way of exchanging files, but not the most secure way. FTPS (FTP Secure) for much better security for data transfer. With FTP you can upload and download files, create folders, delete , and if the client/server supports you can change permissions of files/directories. Popular FTP client is Filezilla (available for Linux, Windows and Mac computers). Modern browser (like Mozilla Firefox) do have FTP support, and you can access FTP servers by adding ftp:// prefix, followed by the server address, user name and password if required in the address bar.
