Secure Copy Protocol (SCP) is a command-line utility in Linux that securely copies files and folders between two Unix systems on a network. SCP uses Secure Shell (SSH) to authenticate systems and encrypt data, so the information is still encrypted even if traffic is intercepted.

We wanted to transfer the latest 8 files we downloaded.

# scp $(ls -lt | head -8 | awk '{print $9}') 192.168.5.41:~/
