Field 04 / file movement

A file browser still needs boundaries.

Convenient transfer does not replace data-handling decisions.

Hands reviewing an abstract dual-pane remote file workflow

Capability and policy are separate.

Mobatek documents a graphical SSH browser that appears with an SSH connection and can transfer files using SFTP or SCP. Teams still need to define what may be moved, between which locations, by whom, and with what review.

Verify behavior in the official documentation.

Four practical controls.

Known locations

Publish approved local and remote paths; avoid ambiguous desktop staging.

Named handling

State whether encryption, scanning, redaction, or ticket references are required by organizational policy.

Traceable exceptions

Time-box unusual transfers and identify the approving owner.

Deletion steps

Record what happens to temporary copies after the task is complete.
