Secure Azure SFTP File Exchange

Secure operational file exchange with encryption, Key Vault, firewall restrictions, logging, exposure windows and infrastructure-as-code.

RoleTechnical architecture and delivery contribution

Period2025 - Present

Designed a secure operational file-exchange approach for enterprise integration scenarios where data exposure, access windows and auditability matter.

The solution combines encryption, Azure Key Vault, firewall restrictions, controlled access, logging and infrastructure-as-code so the operational model is documented, repeatable and easier to review.

The architecture focus was not just moving files. It was reducing blast radius, making access explicit, keeping delivery practical for platform teams and leaving enough observability for support and security review.

Why It Matters

This public-safe summary focuses on architecture trade-offs, maintainability, delivery quality and operational risk. Specific client systems, operating context and non-public metrics are intentionally omitted.

Key Decision

Use time-bounded access, managed secrets and Terraform rather than permanently exposed, manually configured file exchange.

Impact

Reduced data exposure risk with explicit access windows and firewall boundaries.
Made infrastructure and security review repeatable through Terraform and documented operational controls.
Improved supportability with logging and a clearer ownership model for sensitive file exchange.
