MetaDefender Drive Deployment Options
“Previously, we would have taken the steps of blocking all access to removable media as it's too difficult to deal with. Now we've gone from blocking removal media to a standalone system to a fully integrated, solution that that can deal with scanning and securing removable media.”
Learn More About MetaDefender Drive
“The number of sensitive data leakage and malware threat detection we have addressed after using MetaDefender Drive was beyond the capabilities of any scanning software we used in the past.”
