Deep CDR™ Technology: A CEO's Perspective on Stopping File Threats Without Detecting Them
Detection has to recognize a threat to stop it, and today's attacks are built to look unfamiliar. In this webinar, OPSWAT founder and CEO Benny Czarny makes the case for prevention-first file security, walking through how Deep CDR™ Technology cleared 300+ AV-Comparatives test cases and what that shift means for the files entering your environment every day.
Read the Book Behind the Approach
Cybersecurity Upside Down, by OPSWAT founder and CEO Benny Czarny, lays out the prevention-first thinking that Deep CDR™ Technology is built on, and that AV-Comparatives independently validated. A fitting primer for the webinar.
What AV-Comparatives Found
AV-Comparatives independently designed the methodology, ran the evaluation, and reached its own conclusions. Testing spanned three areas: how Deep CDR™ Technology handled live attack scenarios, how many file types it covered, and whether reconstructed files stayed usable. Here is a look at what the webinar will cover.

Benny Czarny
Benny Czarny is the Founder, CEO, and Chairman of the Board of OPSWAT, a global cybersecurity company securing the world’s most critical infrastructure through a prevention-first philosophy: trust no file, trust no device.
Benny founded OPSWAT in 2002 from a small apartment in San Francisco with a bold vision — to reinvent cybersecurity by focusing on prevention instead of detection. With no outside investment, he bootstrapped OPSWAT from a one-person startup into a global organization with more than a thousand employees, serving thousands of enterprise and government customers in over 100 countries.
Under his leadership, OPSWAT has pioneered Deep CDR™ Technology (Content Disarm and Reconstruction) technology and other breakthrough innovations, including Metascan™ multiscanning, secure file transfer, and advanced sandboxing. These technologies are now trusted to protect mission-critical systems across energy, defense, transportation, finance, and government sectors, helping prevent catastrophic breaches before they occur.
With over two decades of expertise in encryption, vulnerability management, and secure architecture, Benny is recognized as one of the world’s leading advocates for Data Sanitization and Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP). His work has helped shift the global cybersecurity mindset from reactive detection to proactive prevention, positioning OPSWAT at the forefront of protecting the systems that power modern civilization.
As both CEO and Chairman, Benny continues to drive OPSWAT’s long-term strategy, product innovation, and culture of execution. He remains deeply involved in the company’s technology roadmap, guiding its evolution toward a world where every file and device entering a secure network is verifiably safe.
Benny’s leadership style is grounded in curiosity, conviction, and hands-on innovation. From bootstrapping OPSWAT’s first product to leading a global organization shaping cybersecurity policy and defense standards, he has built a company defined not by fear of threats but by confidence in prevention. His mission remains clear: to eliminate cyber threats before they can execute and make prevention the foundation of digital trust worldwide.
