Our engineers run weaponized files through the MetaDefender® Platform in real time and narrate what the platform sees.
- Multiscanning across more than 30 leading anti-malware engines, side by side
- Deep CDR™ Technology rebuilding a malicious document into a safe, usable file
- MetaDefender Kiosk™ and MetaDefender Drive™ inspecting removable media and transient devices
- Hardware data diodes enforcing one-way flow between OT and IT networks
AI Powered Protection
Adversaries now produce malware that has never existed before, which means it has never been signed, sampled, or seen. The AI Pod is where MetaDefender® proves what a prevention-first architecture does when there is nothing to match against.
- Deep CDR™ Technology — Strips active content and rebuilds every file from known-good elements, so the payload never reaches the user
- MetaDefender Aether — Detonates files in an adaptive sandbox, catches reworked variants that signatures miss, and scans your own LLM models
- AI Content Inspector — Detects AI-generated content, whether it's an AI-forged ID you create at our booth or AI text/imagery live in your browser
- Predictive Alin AI — Stops zero-day outbreaks from a binary's features, not a definition update
