Enterprise-Grade Zero Trust Managed File Transfer on Azure

Enterprises today struggle with secure, compliant, and large-scale file movement across internal systems, partners, and cloud environments.
Legacy SFTP servers, ad-hoc scripts, and standalone file sharing tools are no longer sufficient to meet modern requirements for governance, auditability, Zero Trust security, performance, and regulatory compliance.

Zapper Edge provides an Azure-native, Zero Trust Managed File Transfer (MFT) solution designed for regulated and data-intensive enterprises. The platform enables secure, policy-driven, and high-performance file exchange with full visibility, compliance controls, and automation across the entire data movement lifecycle.

Cloud-Native Managed File Transfer Platform

Zapper Edge is built as a cloud-native MFT platform that applies Zero Trust principles to every stage of file movement:

  • Identity-first access using Microsoft Entra ID and role-based access control

  • Network isolation with private endpoints and secure connectivity

  • End-to-end encryption with centralized key management

  • Policy-driven governance, audit trails, and compliance enforcement

  • High-throughput transfer of large files and high-concurrency workloads

  • Native integration with Azure Blob Storage, ADLS, Key Vault, and Microsoft Sentinel

This architecture enables enterprises to move sensitive data securely across partners, business units, and geographies while maintaining regulatory alignment and operational control.

What Problems Are We Solving?

  • Slow partner onboarding — Automates setup and accelerates partner integrations.

  • Outdated legacy systems — Replaces on-prem servers with cloud-native scalability.

  • Complex user experience — Simplifies file access and sharing for all users.

  • Manual workflows — Automates repetitive file handling and transfer tasks.

  • Lack of visibility — Provides centralized logs, alerts, and full audit trails.

  • Compliance challenges — Ensures encryption, access control, and regulatory compliance.

  • Data silos — Unifies storage across cloud and on-prem environments.

  • Integration barriers — Supports multiple protocols and 50+ cloud connectors.

  • Maintenance overhead — Eliminates server management and downtime risks.

  • Data Residency and Continuity — Offers geo-replication and regional data control.

Core solution principles

We design solutions around these operational principles:

  • Security first — role-based access, and strong encryption protect data in transit and at rest.

  • Automate operations — event triggers, retries, and orchestration reduce manual work.

  • Centralized governance — global policy control with local execution ensures compliance without slowing teams.

  • Performance at scale — chunked transfers, parallel streams, and adaptive throughput for large transfers.

  • Flexible deployment — cloud native, managed or self-managed operations.
