Here's a couple of ways in which you can achieve this:

1. Write your own file transfer protocol that works over HTTPS
2. Use a Web service to transfer the file

Take a look at System.IO. This namespace has a nice stream-oriented classes
for reading and writing files. One of the things you can do with read a file
into a stream and retrieve the byte array from that stream. You can then
send this byte array as a parameter in a call to a Web service, where it
will be serialized as Base64 encoded text for transmission and then
deserialised back to a byte array on the server. Once the server has the
byte array this can be written to a file using the classes in System.IO.
