As sFTP is a protocol that runs over SSH, will your partner consider using SSH public key authentication instead of passwords

Subject: [External] encrypting password for sFTP when by userid/pw

We are doing some sFTP file transfers using python and pexpect.

Our partner has specified sFTP with userid/password.

We have it working fine but the password is stored in plain text.

Any good ways to encrypt is?

Thanks,

Jerry
