Description

We are considering adding support for SFTP using SSH.NET as a module. SFTP supported has also been discussed on microsoft/ALAppExtensions#268.
Maybe it could be hooked into the External File Storage Module.

However, that would involve BC shipping with this module (DLL file).
Is this even possible considering the security of the platform?
Nuget package: https://www.nuget.org/packages/ssh.net/

Please note that while the BCIdea talks about FTP and SFTP, they are very different.
FTP can simply be implemented using dotnet's FtpWebRequest, but we really want SFTP.

I will provide the implementation for this BC Idea
