Explanation

SSH (Secure Shell) provides encrypted remote login and command execution on UNIX/Linux systems and is a native protocol in those environments. SCP (Secure Copy Protocol) runs over SSH and provides secure file transfer - also native to UNIX. RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) is a Windows-centric protocol. SNMP is for network device monitoring, not remote access or file transfer. FTP transmits data in plaintext and offers no encryption, making it insecure.
