OPSWAT Integrates MetaDefender Storage Security with NetApp ONTAP for Advanced File Protection
Without disrupting existing workflows, this delivers advanced file security directly into on-premises, cloud, and hybrid storage environments.
OPSWAT, a global leader in critical infrastructure protection, has announced the integration of its MetaDefender Storage Security™ with NetApp ® ONTAP®. This solution brings together OPSWAT’s advanced file security tools with NetApp’s widely adopted storage platforms to help organizations detect and prevent hidden malware, macro threats, sensitive data leakage, and file-borne vulnerabilities before they reach critical applications or users. Without disrupting existing workflows, this delivers advanced file security directly into on-premises, cloud, and hybrid storage environments.
“Organizations worldwide move massive volumes of files through the NetApp data platform and our storage systems daily. By adding additional virus scanning capabilities from our partner ecosystem that enforce our position as the most secure storage on the planet, this new solution gives customers more choices in tools to stop file-borne threats before they spread, reduce compliance exposure, and keep critical operations running even as risks evolve.”
– Spencer Sells, Vice President, Global Alliances, NetApp
The integration of OPSWAT with NetApp ONTAP provides multi-layered security capabilities for customers including:
- OPSWAT Metascan™ Multiscanning,
- Deep CDR™ (content disarm and reconstruction),
- Proactive DLP™ (data loss prevention),
- A patented vulnerability assessment, and
- Adaptive sandbox technologies.
“Customers want file security that doesn’t slow down business. With OPSWAT MetaDefender Storage Security integrated into NetApp ONTAP for on-prem and cloud deployments, we help customers stop file-based threats at the storage layer and demonstrate controls for audits without changing workflows.”
– George Prichici, Vice President of Products, OPSWAT
In addition to integration with NetApp ONTAP on-prem and in the cloud, MetaDefender Storage Security supports:
- Server Message Block (SMB),
- Network File System (NFS), and
