The FTP is handled behind the scenes by the IDE, isn't it? I suppose changing it to SSH and adding a password would be easy and require minimal user interaction, since the IDE can save the password just like a web browser would for your email.

The field control setup uses separate VPN for each team so being on "the network" does not give you access to other team's robots.
As for the FTP, while most teams use it simply for uploading code built through their IDE of choice quite a few teams use it for other things such as autonomous scripts, log files, and saving images.
