Opswat MetaDefender Storage Security

MetaDefender Storage Security is a storage security solution that scans files in on-premises and cloud storage environments in real time or on demand. By inspecting content reaching file servers, NAS, object storage and collaboration platforms with multiscanning, Deep CDR and data protection controls, it prevents malicious or risky files from spreading through storage.

Keeping central storage areas clean reduces the risk of large numbers of users and systems accessing the same file being affected all at once. The solution checks a file as it enters storage, while it is in use, or during scheduled scans, which helps uncover both old and new threats. Moving security inspection to the storage layer complements endpoint controls and deepens the defence against ransomware and the spread of malicious files.
