What is Lerian STA?

Lerian STA is your client-owned integration to BACEN’s STA file-exchange hub: two-way regulatory file transport with SHA-256 integrity and terminal events.

Lerian STA is the client-owned messaging integration between a financial institution and BACEN’s STA (Sistema de Transferência de Arquivos), the Banco Central file-exchange hub. It moves regulatory and operational files in both directions. The institution submits files to BACEN (outbound), and BACEN makes files available for the institution to download (inbound).

Lerian STA authenticates every exchange with a stored BACEN operator credential for the institution. It validates BACEN’s public TLS chain through the system root pool and attaches no client certificate. It drives each transfer through BACEN’s protocol state machine and verifies file integrity by SHA-256. It stores inbound artefacts durably and can publish terminal-state facts through separate audit and business channels for consumers. It is API- and event-first. For discovered inbound files, STA resolves source_product from the configured source filter. Files without a match are marked unrouted.

What Lerian STA does and does not do

---

• It is the transport and integrity boundary between the institution and BACEN’s file hub. It moves the bytes, authenticates the exchange, verifies the SHA-256, and records the outcome. It does not interpret the file’s business content.
• It does not post to a ledger. On a completed inbound download, Lerian STA publishes a terminal-state event that carries a claim-check. The consuming domain product (for example, Lerian SISBAJUD) fetches the artefact and processes its content. The consumer owns any ledger posting.

Who it serves

---

Lerian STA serves financial institutions that operate on BACEN rails and need a governed, auditable path for file exchange with the Banco Central.

Downstream, it serves the Lerian products that consume the files it delivers.

Term	Meaning
Lerian STA	Lerian’s client-owned integration to BACEN’s file-exchange hub (Sistema de Transferência de Arquivos).
Transfer	One inbound or outbound exchange of a single file between the institution and BACEN, tracked through its lifecycle.
Outbound transfer	A file the institution submits to BACEN.
Inbound transfer	A file BACEN makes available for the institution to download.
Protocol number	The BACEN-assigned identifier for a transfer; the reconciliation and idempotency key.
Inbound source configuration	A per-tenant policy binding a BACEN system code to a source product, with its polling cadence and credential.
Credential	An encrypted BACEN operator password, identified by institution code and operator ID.
Password rotation	The three-phase change of a BACEN password: stage, change at BACEN, promote locally.
Claim-check	The object_key, sha256, size_bytes, and file_name carried on an inbound-success event so a consumer can fetch and re-verify the artefact. document_code carries the observed BACEN code; document_type carries the corroborated mnemonic or retains the code for compatibility.
Source product	The downstream product a discovered inbound file is routed to (for example, Lerian SISBAJUD).
Lerian SISBAJUD	The judicial asset-order product. Its Mensageria component consumes Lerian STA inbound-file events.
