Secure-FTP (over SSL) is not sufficient as it only encrypts things without verifying the authenticity of the host you are connecting to.
That's actually only the case if you switch off host verification.
Normally with FTPS you would compare the certificate that the host sends you with your certificate store to either 1) verify you have that certificate already or 2) that the certificate is signed by a CA in your store and that its common name matches the domain name you are connecting to.
