Secure file import from user portals

Portals are often used both for external and internal sharing and collecting of various types of information. Such portals are natural hubs between potentially large numbers of different parties and therefore present an effective attack vector for spreading malicious content, intentionally or unintentionally.

Integrating user portals securely

Self-service portals have come to be the de-facto solution as a customer service interface. This leaves trivial tasks such as handing digital documents from the organisation to the self-service portals. In return, freeing up the organisations resources for better use. Yet these documents need to be trustworthy in order to securely process them further, or even open such documents in a trusted domain computer, without the risk of malware infection.

File Security Screener for data scanning and sanitation

An effective way of ensuring secure import of digital documents from user portals is to run the entire package through the File Security Screener, a scanning and sanitation solution from Advenica. The FSS solution can be integrated into almost any self-service portal solution by its many interfaces. Keep the existing self-service portal interfacing your customers and integrate the document share with the FSS. The documents will be automatically fetched by the FSS and run through the scanning and sanitation process. Once the document reaches the destination share, it can be used with high confidence.
