Abstract

Methods for transferring a set of data from a first processing device to a second processing device are provided. Pursuant to these methods a secure shell (“SSH”) authentication is performed to authenticate a first user that is logged onto the first processing device to a second user that is logged onto the second processing device. The set of data is divided into a first data subset and a second data subset. The first data subset is encrypted to provide an encrypted data set. The encrypted data set is transferred from the first processing device to the second processing device. The second data subset is also transferred from the first processing device to the second processing device, but without encrypting the second data subset. Related data transfer systems and computer program products are also provided.
