Safe File Transfers
for Seamless Workflows
Integrating MetaDefender malware protection and Proactive DLP™ with MFT (managed file transfer) solutions enables secure file transfers without sacrificing speed or performance. By scanning files for threats and sensitive data in real-time, OPSWAT aids compliance and protects your organization from cyberthreats while maintaining the efficiency of your existing MFTs.
File Transfer Security Risks
Threat Detection
MFT solutions often lack advanced scanning and detection capabilities, increasing the risk of undetected malware.
Security Management
Managing security across multi-vendor environments leads to inconsistent policies and fragmented oversight.
Integration Gaps
MFT solutions frequently lack integration with existing security tools, disrupting workflow automation.
Untrusted Sources
Files received from untrusted sources, such as partners and customers, are difficult to secure within MFT platforms.
Lack of Remediation
MFT solutions lack response mechanisms for addressing detected malware or sensitive data exposure.

Configuring MetaDefender for Managed File Transfers
MetaDefender Workflow Engine allows security professionals to customize security policies, file processing, and administrative options to meet specific security requirements and service-level performance commitments.
Organizations leveraging MFT capabilities support many underlying file-sharing and file-storage use cases and, therefore, should configure file security policies that meet the needs of each specific workflow.
The following are parameters to consider when building an MFT workflow:
Each workflow should define the type of files accepted, including productivity, media, system, and archives, and designate the maximum file size allowed.
Scale to support the volume of files processed by tuning scan request queuing and defining the number of parallel threads communicating with scanning engines.
Define whether or not archive files are accepted, as well as maximum file size if allowed.
Establish a multiscanning threshold for how many engines must detect a threat before alerting as infected. A higher threshold reduces the likelihood of false positives while requiring slightly more resources.
Define detection and protection workflows across MetaScan Multiscanning, Deep CDR, Proactive DLP, and Adaptive Sandbox to provide the appropriate level of security based on the source's trust level.
