    -I would start by installing Ubuntu on your computer.
    -Then setting up ssh
    -then setting up port-forwarding on your router for port 22
    -then download winscp and connect to your routers ip address.
    -you can get the ip address from canyouseeme.org
    -Then you can transfer any files from anywhere to your home pc.
    -it will be secure and encrypted.
