Microsoft Azure Storage Security
Microsoft Azure storage has 2 storage modes:
- Azure Blob which is an object storage type like AWS S3.
- Azure File Type which is similar to a shared folder storage (SMB compatible).
Users can integrate Azure Blob or File Type storage in MetaDefender Storage Security to provide multi-AV malware scanning, data sanitization, sensitive data loss protection, and other advanced vulnerability assessment and threat prevention benefits via OPSWAT’s proprietary suite of technologies that includes Multiscanning, Deep CDR (Content Disarm and Reconstruction), Proactive DLP (Data Loss Prevention), and file-based vulnerability assessment in one easy-to-implement solution.
