SAN FRANCISCO – April 28, 2025 – OPSWAT, a global leader in critical infrastructure protection (CIP), was recognized with the Publisher's Choice Content Disarm and Reconstruction (CDR) and Publisher's Choice Threat Intelligence awards from Cyber Defense Magazine (CDM). The awards were announced as part of the 13th Annual Global InfoSec Awards at the RSA Conference in San Francisco.
With its Deep CDR and Threat Intelligence solutions, OPSWAT displayed the three features our judges look for in winners: understanding tomorrow’s threats, today; providing a cost-effective solution and innovating in unexpected ways that can help mitigate cyber risk; and getting one step ahead of the next breach

OPSWAT received the Publisher’s Choice CDR award for its Deep CDR technology, which is an integral part of the MetaDefender platform and supports various OPSWAT solutions. It employs a zero-trust approach by treating every file as potentially hazardous, deconstructing it into individual components, eliminating harmful or non-compliant elements, and reconstructing safe, functional files without compromising usability.
The Publisher's Choice Threat Intelligence award recognizes OPSWAT’s MetaDefender NDR and MetaDefender InSights. The two products complement each other by bridging real-time detection with deep contextual analysis, forming a more holistic threat intelligence and response ecosystem.
MetaDefender NDR focuses on network-based threat detection, leveraging techniques such as deep packet inspection, anomaly detection, and behavioral analytics.
MetaDefender InSights is aligned with strategic and tactical threat intelligence and aggregates, correlates, and visualizes data from multiple sources.
The two products complement each other by bridging real-time detection with deep contextual analysis, forming a more holistic threat intelligence and response ecosystem.
Receiving this recognition from Cyber Defense Magazine highlights the impact our approach to cybersecurity is having on the industry, particularly that of our Deep CDR technology and advanced threat intelligence offerings. These awards perfectly reflect our commitment to innovating beyond traditional detection methods, creating proactive, zero-trust solutions that help organizations defend against sophisticated threats.
