I read an article here about dokan sshfs for windows. I want to ask if you know similar software (free or not) in order to access windows partitions from windows. Samba is a always an answer, however I am seeking for something more secure.

You can use the Dokan SSHFS client with the OpenSSH server for Windows, you can configure OpenSSH like you would on UNIX, then use the Dokan SSH client to connect remotely, just as you would do on UNIX with sshfs.

When you say Samba, so you mean SMB? Samba is the *NIX client/server for SMB.
