SFTP

The main cPanel user can only connect to the server via SFTP/SSH on  port 22. This is the most secure option, and recommended. Please note  that additional FTP users created via cPanel do not have SFTP/SSH  privileges.    
  
   In FTP client such as FileZilla you can connect  as :
  
   - enter as hostname "SFTP://yourdomain.com"

Using SFTP is the same as FTP, except your password and other data is encrypted as it is transmitted between your computer and your website. This means your password is never sent in the clear and cannot be intercepted by an attacker.
