What exactly are the requirements? File encryption? Transfer 
encryption? Full backups? Incremental backups? Differential 
backups? Bandwidth use? Automation level? Client push or server pull?

No way. FTP uses plain text transfers including plain text 
passwords. People make backups of data because that data is 
valuable and that usually means they don't want prying eyes.
