Key Features

Securely isolate files between tenants. Each tenant has their own API keys, file contexts, and storage quotas.
Automatically validate files for:
  • Blank/empty files - Detect PDFs, images, Excel files with no content
  • Corrupt files - Verify file integrity and structure
  • Virus scanning - ClamAV integration for malware detection
Create contexts to define file rules:
  • Allowed file extensions
  • Maximum file size
  • Storage quotas
  • Rate limits
  • Virus scanning toggles
Secure file downloads with time-limited pre-signed S3 URLs. No credentials exposed to end users.
Track every operation with detailed audit logs:
  • Who performed the action
  • What was affected
  • When it happened
  • IP address and user agent
