Peripheral and removable media devices, such as USB drives and external hard drives, remain a significant security challenge for critical environments. These devices can introduce serious vulnerabilities if not properly controlled. As threats continue to evolve, staying ahead requires constant innovation. MetaDefender Endpoint not only protects endpoints but also prevents malware from spreading through peripheral and removable media. We’re excited to announce the latest advancements in MetaDefender Endpoint v7.6.2412, designed to address emerging risks and enhance security.
Seamless Endpoint Scanning Enables Disconnected Operation
MetaDefender Endpoint can now scan files from removable media with a local anti-malware engine. Removing external dependencies and expanding new deployment options enables critical operation regardless of user location or network status. This new feature can support disconnected scanning, increase process speed, and enhance privacy as scanning can be conducted locally on the device.
Improved Security with Drag-and-Drop Secure File Download
With the Secure File Download feature, users can now benefit from a smoother workflow when downloading files securely from the web with our new enhancement. This new feature provides a proactive approach to prevent users from bypassing file scanning policies when dragging and dropping files from browsers directly onto their local drives. This enhancement brings a seamless, intuitive and secure experience as it ensures all downloaded files are properly scanned and sanitized before they are made accessible, further safeguarding organizations from potential file-based threats.
