Hi Sebastián Perez,

To create an encryptor of files using Azure Functions that can encrypt files and send them to end users with instructions on how to decrypt them, you can follow these steps:

• Set up Azure Key Vault First, create an Azure Key Vault. This is where you’ll safely store the encryption keys. Make sure your function app has permission to access it.
• Create your Azure Functions You’ll create one function to encrypt the uploaded files using the encryption key from Key Vault, and another function to send an email to the user with the encrypted file and instructions.
• Add the encryption logic Use code (for example, in .NET or JavaScript) to encrypt the file before saving it in Azure Blob Storage. The key from Key Vault will be used during encryption.
• Set up email sending Use a service like SendGrid inside your function to email the encrypted file to the user. Add clear instructions in the email on how to decrypt it safely.
• Test and deploy Before going live, test everything — make sure the files are encrypted properly and emails are being sent as expected. Once it’s working, you can deploy it to production.

For your reference, please review the following documentations for further clarification:

• Azure Storage Service Encryption
• Plan to deploy Azure Files
• Azure data security and encryption best practices

By following these steps, you can create an encryptor of files using Azure Functions that encrypts files using Azure Key Vault and sends them to end users with decryption instructions. If you need more detailed guidance on any specific step, feel free to ask!
