MetaDefender Storage Security

Enterprise Data Protection Platform for Secure Storage Across Environments

MetaDefender Storage Security offers a robust layer of protection for on-premises, hybrid, and cloud-native storage environments. 

From local servers to cloud-based platforms, this solution ensures that enterprise data is fully protected against breaches, downtime, and compliance violations. It integrates seamlessly with leading storage and collaboration solutions like OneDrive, Box, Amazon S3, Microsoft Azure, Cloudian, Dell EMC, and any S3 or SMB-compatible storage.

Top Challenges for
Enterprise Data Protection

Mitigate Evolving Threats in Hybrid and Cloud Data Environments 

As enterprises shift workloads from legacy systems to cloud-native and hybrid environments, security challenges evolve. With a wider attack surface across both on-premises and cloud platforms, organizations face increasing threats of malware, data breaches, and compliance risks. The potential loss or unauthorized access to sensitive information can lead to substantial financial and reputational damage.  

MetaDefender Storage Security addresses these challenges by providing comprehensive advanced threat prevention with OPSWAT's leading technologies, protecting your enterprise data regardless of where it resides. 

Simplify Regulatory Compliance for Global Data Governance 

As regulatory requirements like GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI DSS become more complex, organizations face increasing pressure to protect sensitive data and demonstrate compliance.  

MetaDefender Storage Security helps businesses enforce data protection policies, track sensitive content, and produce actionable reports with dynamic charts, and detailed PDF audits to help meet compliance needs
with confidence.

Handling Massive Data Volumes Without Performance Impact

Storage environments often contain enormous quantities of data (terabytes to petabytes), much of which might be legacy data accumulated over many years. Scanning vast amounts of data residing on storage systems (NAS, SAN, Cloud) can consume significant resources (CPU, I/O), potentially disrupting critical business operations.  

MetaDefender Storage Security offers flexible deployment options for environments of all sizes while seamlessly integrating with SIEM systems through an intuitive GUI and RESTful API for enhanced workflow incorporation.

Advanced Features for Enterprise Data Security

  • Instant Threat Detection with Real-Time File Scanning 

    Ensure files are processed as soon as they are uploaded. Real-time scanning supports polling and event-based handling types for file discovery.

    Automated Scheduled Scans for Ongoing Threat Prevention 

    Schedule automated scans to regularly check your storage for threats and vulnerabilities, while maintaining continuous security.

    On-Demand Scanning for Immediate Security Assessment 

    Initiate scans instantly after configurations. Users have the flexibility to specify a scan name and set scan priority and preferred scan configurations tailored to specific security requirements.

    Enhanced File Tagging for Forensic Analysis and Tracking

    Tag files with processing details to support forensic analysis and tracking, enhancing your audit and compliance capabilities.

    Automated File Remediations for Comprehensive File Management 

    Customize remediation workflows by combining Deep CDR™, and actions like copy, encrypt, block, move, or delete files. An optional "Delete empty folders after remediation" setting is added for
SMB/NFS/SFTP shares.
