File Security for Diverse Industries
MetaDefender for File Security offers a proactive zero-trust approach by detecting and preventing file-borne malware.
Sophisticated attacks aimed at data theft, espionage, and operational disruption are becoming more common, highlighting the importance of protecting against both external and internal threats. Ensuring the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of critical information is key, not just for operational continuity but also for maintaining trust and compliance with industry-specific regulations.
OPSWAT’s file security solutions are designed to meet these challenges head-on. By offering advanced, sector-specific defense, we help safeguard the critical digital assets that are crucial to your operations.
Financial
- Despite increased spending on cybersecurity and an expanded focus on risk reduction, attacks targeting the financial services sector continue to accelerate in both complexity and frequency.
- Most attacks are motivated by potential financial gain by stealing, selling, or holding data ransom.
- Secure your financial data and meet compliance mandates such as PCI-DSS, SOX, FINRA, and SWIFT CSCF.
- OPSWAT applies a Zero Trust model to users and the files they upload – to protect you and the critical financial information you manage from hackers, state-sponsored cybercriminals, insider attacks, and even inadvertent employee oversights
Health Care
The health care industry communicates sensitive protected health information (PHI) daily. The consequences of a data breach can be huge ransom payouts, shutdown of critical hospital operations, and even risk to patients' lives.
A common target for hackers is electronic health records such as DICOM files which are used for transmitting, storing, retrieving, printing, and displaying medical imaging information, such as X-ray, CT scans, MRIs, and ultrasounds.
It is critical to implement advanced file security solutions for proactive threat protection to keep data secure and confidential and for compliance with data protection regulations such as HIPAA and HITECH.
Technology
The technology sector, a hotbed for innovation and proprietary data, is a prime target for cyber espionage and competitive data theft. Tech companies manage large volumes of sensitive information, including intellectual property and customer data, making robust file security crucial.
Attacks on the tech industry can disrupt operations, leak cutting-edge innovations, and compromise customer trust. Strong file security measures help protect against these threats, ensuring business continuity and safeguarding the sector’s lifeblood—its intellectual assets. Compliance with data protection standards is key.
OPSWAT’s file security solutions offer the technology sector an advanced defense, protecting against the loss or compromise of their valuable digital assets while maintaining regulatory compliance.
Education
Educational institutions, rich in personal data and research, face increasing cyber threats due to their vast, accessible networks. Attacks aim to exploit sensitive information for identity theft or espionage. With the rise of digital learning, the need for file security has become paramount.
Robust file security is vital to shield against malware, preserve privacy, and secure proprietary research data, ensuring compliance with FERPA and GDPR. OPSWAT’s file security solutions deliver essential protection to maintain the integrity of sensitive student and institutional information.
Government
Government entities, from federal to state, local, educational (SLED), and defense agencies, hold a vast repository of sensitive data, making them prime targets for multifaceted cyber threats. These organizations are tasked with safeguarding national security, citizen information, and critical infrastructure against espionage, disruption, and unauthorized disclosure.
Compliance with standards like NIST for federal agencies and FISMA for all government entities is non-negotiable, necessitating robust security measures.
OPSWAT’s file security solutions offer the necessary advanced defense-in-depth, crucial for protecting citizen data, maintaining public trust, and ensuring the continuity of governmental services.
