Encrypt and decrypt inside the flow
Apply OpenPGP encryption before upload and decryption after download without splitting payload protection into external commands.
OpenPGP encryption, signing, verification, key governance, audit traceability
PGP file transfer workflows with enterprise governance
Run OpenPGP-protected file exchange with encryption, decryption, signing, verification, and full audit traceability.
PGP exchange programs fail when key handling is inconsistent, provider behavior is opaque, or operators cannot trace what happened to a file.
PGP workflow control
Run encrypted file exchange without making cryptography a manual side process
Use Xferity when file transfer and payload protection have to work together, not as separate operator steps.
Sign and verify payloads
Add outbound signing and inbound signature verification with detached or inline signature support.
Choose native or GnuPG execution
Use native gopenpgp, full GnuPG execution, or controlled auto fallback for enterprise key structures that require it.
Use isolated GnuPG homes
Avoid shared keyring side effects by running each GnuPG operation in its own isolated temporary home.
Manage key inventory properly
Track PGP key capabilities, certificate roles, and Partner Crypto Policy instead of leaving key handling spread across scripts and operator memory.
Trace every crypto-backed delivery
Use audit records, flow history, and structured observability fields to see what provider ran, what fallback occurred, and what happened to the file.
From ad hoc PGP handling to governed workflows
| Requirement | Typical current state | Xferity approach |
|---|---|---|
| Encryption handling | Manual gpg step before or after transfer | Encryption and decryption are part of the defined flow |
| Key compatibility | Operator guesses whether a provider will work | Native, GnuPG, and controlled auto fallback are explicit runtime modes |
| Key isolation | Shared keyrings and user-profile side effects | Isolated temporary GnuPG homes per operation |
| Operational evidence | Crypto runs are hard to trace after failure | Audit records and structured fields show how a crypto step executed |
PGP delivery checklist
- Verify partner public-key fingerprints before trusting them for encryption
- Model encryption, decryption, signing, or verification inside the flow definition
- Choose native, GnuPG, or auto provider mode based on real key structure requirements
- Keep passphrases in runtime secrets providers, not plaintext config
