Add an NFS with SISL Storage

Simple Information Serialization Language (SISL) is a simple structured text format designed for use in the NCSC Safely Importing Data Pattern. MDSS provides the functionality to wrap and unwrap files with an XOR scrambling technique using the following algorithm pySISL.

Step 1:

To scan a storage that contains wrapped files, you have to integrate it as an NFS storage unit. Please see this page.

Step 2:

From MetaDefender Storage Security user interface, add an NFS with SISL storage unit, setting the Mount directory to the folder created at Step 1.

Remediation behavior is as follows:

  • Files moved between NFS with SISL storage units remain unchanged
  • Files moved from NFS with SISL to another storage type (such as Amazon S3) are unwrapped during the move
  • Files moved from another storage type (such as Amazon S3) to NFS with SISL are wrapped during the move

The wrap/unwrap action is not configurable.
