That would depend what FTP server you have installed. Additionally I would look for settings in Filezilla.
When using an FTP client such as Filezilla, folders and files uploaded to the server are automatically set to a high security protocol. How can we set the file permissions to be 755 for folders and 644 for files? Below is an example of the File Permissions window.
