Release Highlights
New Workflow Configurations
In previous versions, the operation of Post Actions and External Scanners defined in the Inventory was applied to all workflows by default. To enhance configuration flexibility, this release comes with two brand-new workflow settings that enable MetaDefender Core administrators to configure certain post actions and external AV engines for each workflow.


This enhancement not only facilitates custom-built security posture, but also improves MetaDefender Core processing performance. Especially, external scanners and post actions set in the workflow can be imported or exported under the Settings > Export/Import page before product upgrades. More detailed information on the new workflow configuration options can be found here.
Signed File Vendor Calculation
Statistical data about the top 10 most popular vendors collected from the file’s digital signature is now calculated and demonstrated in the exported Executive Report.

More File Digital Signature Analysis Details Are Provided
MetaDefender Core can detect multiple signers (co-signers) in the scanned file. Additional information about the scanned file’s digital signature is now exposed, such as version, issuer, serial number, digest algorithm, and digest encryption algorithm.

Many notable improvements in product user interface and product stability can be found in our release notes.
