MetaDefender for File Security™ 

We Help You Stay Compliant 

Most compliance regulations and mandates are underpinned by two key principles: 

Protection of Sensitive Data

Mandates that organizations must implement measures to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of sensitive data like personal details, financial information, health records, and any other type of data that, if compromised, could lead to harm or loss for individuals or organizations.

Protection of Infrastructure

Mandates the creation of a secure and resilient digital ecosystem that can protect against, withstand, and recover from cyber threats. Organizations are required to implement measures that extend from protection of IT infrastructure to intrusion and malware prevention for safeguarding their digital and physical information.

MetaDefender for File Security combines unique technologies to effectively secure critical infrastructure and sensitive information, helping organizations in meeting cybersecurity regulations across various industries.

GDPR

GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) is a European Union regulation governing the protection of personal data and privacy rights of individuals within the EU and the European Economic Area.

OPSWAT’s File Security solutions are essential for GDPR compliance as it ensures that personal data stored in files is adequately protected from unauthorized access, disclosure, or manipulation. MetaDefender for File Security helps organizations achieve GDPR compliance by ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of personal data stored in files, thus mitigating the risk of data breaches and non-compliance penalties.

FISMA

FISMA (Federal Information Security Management Act) is a US federal law that defines guidelines for securing federal government information systems. This legislation sets out security requirements for organizations handling government data, including provisions on user authentication, incident response plans, and system audits.  

OPSWAT’s File Security solutions support FISMA compliance by enforcing stringent data protection controls to safeguard sensitive government information against unauthorized access or disclosure and providing comprehensive monitoring and alerting capabilities to detect and manage security incidents promptly, in line with FISMA's requirement for an agency-wide information security program.

FINRA

FINRA (Financial Industry Regulatory Authority) compliance is a series of requirements that apply to financial brokers and their representatives to protect investors and ensure the integrity of America’s financial systems and exchange markets. FINRA guides critical anti-fraud measures and their implementation through cybersecurity and identity verification controls that governed entities must implement. Secure records of all transactions must be kept, and systems monitored for tampering or insider trading evidence. 

OPSWAT’s File Security solutions aid in implementing comprehensive data protection controls and audit trails for accountability and transparency in financial transactions and data management.  

It helps in securing records of all financial transactions against cyber-attacks, for the integrity, availability, and confidentiality of financial information as per FINRA guidelines.

PCI-DSS

The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is a set of security standards designed to ensure that all companies that accept, process, store, or transmit credit card information maintain a secure environment. Developed by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council (PCI SSC), PCI DSS aims to protect cardholder data from theft and fraud.

OPSWAT’s File Security solutions play an important role in securing credit card numbers, security codes, and other cardholder data. Effective file security strategies minimize the risk of data breaches and unauthorized access, both of which are critical to maintaining PCI-DSS compliance.

HIPAA

HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act is a federal law that requires healthcare providers, insurance providers and their business associates to protect the privacy and security of protected health information (PHI). 

OPSWAT’s File Security solutions help achieve compliance with this regulation by protecting sensitive patient health information like medical record numbers, and implementing security safeguards to prevent data breaches.

ISO 27001

ISO 27001 is an international standard for information security management systems (ISMS). It specifies the requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving an ISMS to identify, manage and reduce security risks.  

OPSWAT’s File Security solutions help organizations implement appropriate security controls that protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data owned or handled by the organization for compliance with ISO 27001 mandates.

NIST SP 800-53

This cybersecurity framework, particularly for US federal agencies and contractors, is a set of standards, guidelines, rules, and procedures to help organizations protect their networks, information systems, and data from a diverse set of threats. 

OPSWAT’s File Security solutions play a crucial role in protecting sensitive information, maintaining trust, and ensuring the overall security and resilience of information systems, which are key objectives of NIST SP 800-53 and similar security frameworks.

NIS2

NIS2 (Network and Information Systems Directive 2) is an EU directive aimed at enhancing cybersecurity and resilience across critical sectors.  

Member States must ensure that essential and important entities take appropriate and proportionate technical, operational, and organizational measures to manage the risks posed to the security of network and information systems, and to prevent or minimize the impact of incidents on recipients of their services and on other services. 

OPSWAT’s File Security solutions protect sensitive data at rest and in transit, masking it from unauthorized use, helping maintain its confidentiality, integrity, and availability. In addition, robust security measures like anti-malware, sandboxing, content disarm and reconstruction, and vulnerability assessment prevent malware from jeopardizing critical infrastructure.

CIRCIA Act 2022

The Cyber Incident Reporting for Critical Infrastructure Act of 2022 (CIRCIA) requires Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) to develop and implement regulations requiring covered entities to report covered cyber incidents and ransomware payments to CISA. These reports will allow CISA to rapidly deploy resources and render assistance to victims suffering attacks, analyze incoming reporting across sectors to spot trends, and quickly share that information with network defenders to warn other potential victims. It requires organizations in certain critical infrastructure sectors like healthcare and communications to report cyber incidents within 72 hrs.  

OPSWAT’s File Security solutions that combine technologies like anti-malware scanning, CDR, and sandboxing not only help in detection and prevention but also provide a comprehensive malware analysis report that helps organizations meet the mandatory reporting requirements.
