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™ Technology (Content Disarm and Reconstruction), Proactive DLP (Data Loss Prevention), and file-based vulnerability assessment in one easy-to-implement solution.
