NGINX + OPSWAT
OPSWAT MetaDefender ICAP Server protects networks and applications from known malware and unknown (zero-day) malicious file content. Together, OPSWAT and NGINX help customers meet their shared responsibility to secure modern cloud applications.
MetaDefender ICAP Server + NGINX Joint Solution
MetaDefender ICAP Server easily integrates with NGINX to protect containerized applications against file-borne malware, known and unknown threats, sensitive data leaks, and application file vulnerabilities. Customers using NGINX Plus or NGINX Open Source can implement MetaDefender ICAP Server to add an additional threat prevention layer to their existing infrastructure.
NGINX Security Solutions
NGINX offers many benefits out-of-the-box that simplifies security concerns. This approach protects apps from OWASP Top 10 and Layer 7 DoS attacks. It also reduces security breaches and limits exposure to malicious users with authentication, TLS support, and connection limiting. The ability to configure application health checks and high-availability solutions provides a comprehensive solution to operating applications at scale.
