Product Overview  

MetaDefender Storage Security offers a robust layer of protection for on-prem and cloud storage, protecting enterprise-stored data from data breaches and downtime, and aiding regulation compliance.   

MetaDefender Storage Security leverages multiple OPSWAT technologies like Deep CDR (Content Disarm and Reconstruction), Multiscanning, and Proactive DLP (Data Loss Prevention) to protect stored files, documents, and images from zero-day attacks, advanced threats and sensitive data loss.   

Highlights 

We're excited to announce the latest update to MetaDefender Storage Security, bringing a range of improvements designed to enhance security, streamline workflows, and improve user experience. 

Expanded API Key Functionality across all REST APIs

Previously exclusive to event-based RTP, API Key functionality now extends to all our REST APIs. This allows you to generate and utilize an API Key for seamless long-term integration across all available REST API endpoints. Remember to periodically rotate your API Key for optimal security.

Streamlined User Onboarding

As part of our ongoing rebranding, the default rule in MetaDefender Core for new installations now reflects the updated product name - MetaDefender Storage Security. This ensures new users automatically benefit from the latest configuration tailored specifically for this solution. 

Improved Error Reporting

We've added a dedicated field to reports to clearly identify discovery errors. This captures and displays all errors associated with discovery failures, providing enhanced transparency and facilitating troubleshooting.

Deeper My OPSWAT Integration

We've strengthened our integration with My OPSWAT by introducing an advanced health status report for MetaDefender Storage Security. This new feature empowers My OPSWAT to effectively diagnose and report potential issues within the product, ultimately improving overall functionality and user experience. 

Enhanced User Management

SSO administrators can now accept or decline new user invitations, aligning their permissions with those of local administrators. This update grants greater control and consistency in user management across the platform. 

Enhancements 

Discovery Service

Fixed a multithreaded access issue in the Redis cache, ensuring improved stability and performance.

RabbitMQ Upgrade

Upgraded RabbitMQ to version 3.13, enhancing overall performance and stability.

Windows Native

Streamlined user experience with quality-of-life improvements and clearer error messages during installation. Additionally, the included Visual C++ Redistributable (vc_redist) enables full installation on offline Windows systems without requiring extra downloads, simplifying setup and increasing accessibility.

Database Migrations

Enhanced logging mechanisms in mongo-migrations provide more detailed information for troubleshooting.

Remediation Enhancements

Added robust error handling for pre and post-process events in remediations, ensuring smoother operation and improved reliability during critical workflows.
