*FTPS was created as an extension of FTP to add security mechanisms, while SFTP is an extension of SSH that adds easy file transfer capabilities to the already secure SSH.
*FTPS uses two channels to facilitate communications and data transfer, while SFTP only uses one.
* FTPS sends and receives messages in a human readable format, while SFTP sends and receives messages in binary.
