    wpengine.com removed SFTP ciphers causing error "unsupported cipher" in BC4

    In the last two days wpengine removed some of the supported ciphers they deemed insecure. Now I cannot use Beyond Compare to connect to any wpengine site.

    Here is the article that describes the changes to wpengine:
    https://wpengine.com/support/sftp/

    Is there a solution to this? Do I have any control of what ciphers beyond compare uses? I can't find documentation about this.

    Thanks

    Thanks for reporting the issue. Our lead developer investigated, it will require a software update in Beyond Compare. The fix should go out in Beyond Compare 4.2.6, hopefully soon. We'll post an update when the fixed version is available.

        Beyond Compare 4.2.6 is now available on the download page. It should fix the WPEngine SFTP issue.
