The trial period has expired. How can I extend it?

If your trial period has expired and you require further time to evaluate CompleteFTP, we are happy to extend your trial period. Please note that after the trial license expires, it converts to "Developer Mode", which only permits connections from the local machine. You can use it indefinitely in this mode.

Is CompleteFTP PCI DSS compliant?

CompleteFTP is not directly PCI DSS certified, but it can help you meet key PCI DSS requirements when configured appropriately. The PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) defines a baseline of technical and operational requirements to protect cardholder data. While FTP servers themselves aren't "certified" for PCI DSS, they can support compliance efforts as part of your broader infrastructure.

Is CompleteFTP FIPS-140 certified?

No, CompleteFTP is not FIPS-140 certified—but it can operate in FIPS-compliant environments. From version 6.3.0 onwards, CompleteFTP supports running on systems where Windows’ “FIPS-compliant algorithms” setting is enabled. This means that while CompleteFTP itself is not certified, it can still run within a FIPS-enforced configuration.
