Use Diplomat MFT to simplify Secure File Transfers from Microsoft Azure Blob Storage
The cloud makes it easy for businesses to store and access data from anywhere. Companies choose Microsoft Azure Blob for cloud storage because it is a cost efficient option for easily accessible, on-demand data storage, with the ability to scale up as needs require. Azure Blob is also flexible and resilient, with data and resources available to users wherever they are, whenever they need access, and in whatever development frameworks they have chosen.
Often, the data organizations store in the cloud includes sensitive files containing things like financial reports, customer data, intellectual property, regulated information like personally identifiable information (PII) and protected health information (PHI), and documents required for external auditors, regulatory agencies, and business partners. This type of data is highly regulated, and so organizations using Azure Blob Storage in this context need a secure and efficient way to transfer those files, while adhering to stringent data protection mandates when accessing and transferring files stored from their Microsoft Azure Blob Storage service to external parties using a method that ensures encryption, authentication, and data integrity.
Traditional file transfer methods lack the necessary security features and automations that make this possible, thus exposing sensitive data to unauthorized access due to human error, or interception during transmission. Coviant Software solves this problem simply and cost effectively.
Simple, Secure & Easy-to-use
Our Diplomat MFT secure managed file transfer solution provides a robust way to securely transfer files from Microsoft Azure Blob Storage to external partners. Our secure-by-design approach automates file encryption using PGP, transfers files using SFTP for secure transport, and automates other key processes like transactional data capture for auditability, task confirmation or error reporting, and confirmation of authorized recipients.
While this is a common use case for ensuring secure, regulatory compliant data transfers from Azure Blob Storage to external parties, it is not the only way Diplomat MFT can simplify the process of transferring data to or from Blob. Because it integrates easily with Azure and thousands of common business services and applications, Diplomat MFT can streamline many internal and external data transfers.
Non-regulated file transfers can be complicated for organizations that have disparate business resources and different operational needs when accessing and transferring data from those resources and moving it to Azure Blob. Whether that data is being transferred for the purpose of archiving, populating business services, or to transfer key data sets into a data lake or data cloud where it will be used to run sophisticated analytics.
Diplomat MFT is a simple, reliable, and cost-effective way to help customers move that data from disparate systems into Azure Blob and Azure Data lakes for whatever internal purpose they may have. And the same features that make Diplomat MFT popular for sensitive data transfers (simplicity, security, process automation, etc.), make it ideal for everyday data transfers, too.
Here’s how Diplomat MFT can easily manage your secure file transfer needs with Microsoft Azure Blob Storage:
Integration with Azure Blob Storage:
You can configure Diplomat to seamlessly integrate with Microsoft Azure Blob Storage. Diplomat MFT accesses the Azure Blob Storage containers securely, ensuring seamless connectivity and data retrieval.
Access Control and Permissions:
You can define access control policies within Diplomat to restrict access to sensitive files based on user roles and permissions. Each external partner is assigned unique SFTP credentials and limited access rights, ensuring that only authorized individuals can retrieve specific files.
Encryption and Data Protection:
Diplomat MFT encrypts files in transit using robust encryption algorithms, ensuring that sensitive data remains protected during transmission.
Automated File Transfer Workflows:
You can set up automated workflows within Diplomat to schedule file transfers based on predefined triggers. For example, financial reports are automatically transferred to external auditors at the end of each quarter, streamlining the process and reducing human interaction.
Monitoring and Reporting:
Diplomat MFT provides real-time monitoring and detailed logging of file transfer activities, allowing you to track transfer progress, identify potential issues, and generate audit trails for compliance purposes. Any unauthorized access attempts or transfer failures trigger immediate alerts for fast investigation.
