 * Hello,
   Thank you for your message.At the moment, BackWPUp supports standard FTP
   as a backup destination. SFTP is not available yet, but support for SFTP is planned
   and will be introduced in a future update of the Pro version.
 * Once it’s available, it will be announced in our release notes and documentation.
 * Let me know if you’d like help with one of the currently supported storage options.
   
   Best Regards,
