SCP vs SFTP vs PGPMail?
Some text files that are located on the remote server need to be downloaded securely. What is the best (the most secure) way to get them?
I was condsidering 4 options:
1. SCP (ssh1)
2. SFTP
3. PGPMail to email encrypted text
4. SSL - to load a text file in web browser via https an then save it.

The final goal is to automatically print text files located in some directory on the remote server and then, remove them.
Thank you

Any of these is good. The security here does not depend on the method at first.
