Does the AOC support encrypted FTP traffic?

The Washington State Administrative Office of the Court's (AOC) infrastructure manager reports:

"Currently the JIS (Judicial Information System) supports FTP/TLS encryption, which is basically the same as SSL (Single Socket Layer) encryption. It (FTP/TLS) encrypts using the 128-bit encryption method. To activate it on our (the AOC's) jobs, only requires adding the option "-r TLS" to the execution step.

"Of course, the other end needs to support TLS also.

"We (the AOC) do not currently support the SFTP encryption method.

"There is a lengthy description of the FTP/TLS and what clients/servers support at this link:
