Multi-Partner File Exchange Platform — B2B File Transfer with Xferity
Partner File Exchange Platform
Section titled “Partner File Exchange Platform”A partner file exchange platform manages the recurring exchange of files with external trading partners — not just moving bytes, but keeping the trust model explicit and the workflow traceable.
What Xferity provides for partner exchange
Section titled “What Xferity provides for partner exchange”Reusable partner definitions: each partner is defined once — protocol, endpoint, credentials, trust material. Flows reference partners rather than embedding connection details.
Protocol-specific trust enforcement:
- SFTP: SSH host verification via
known_hostsorfingerprint - FTPS: TLS certificate validation with optional SHA-256 fingerprint
- AS2: certificate roles for signing, encryption, verification, and HTTPS trust
- S3: endpoint TLS and credential scope
Partner Crypto Policy: each partner page shows a unified view of what crypto roles are configured, bound, and whether they are in a healthy state.
Posture evaluation per partner: the posture engine evaluates each partner’s security state — crypto roles, secrets handling, transport settings — and surfaces findings with regression alerts if the state worsens.
How it works in practice
Section titled “How it works in practice”- define the partner YAML with endpoint and trust material
- create flows that reference the partner by ID
