File Security Screener

Ensuring secure file import

The File Security Screener is a high-security file import solution combining unidirectional data diode technology with malware scanning.

The File Security Screener is the most comprehensive protection against software supply chain attacks and other file-based vulnerabilities.

File transfer at the highest security level

The File Security Screener (FSS) enables file import to sensitive networks without compromising the integrity and confidentiality of the receiving system. The solution automatically handles malware scanning of all files transferred between different network domains while at the same time assuring separation of the connected networks.

Deep CDR and Proactive DLP included

The FSS is a versatile and customisable solution supporting many-to-many users through shared folders or storage media such as USB. Several options for antivirus scanning and other threat prevention techniques such as Deep Content Disarm and Reconstruction (Deep CDR) and Proactive Data Loss Prevention (Proactive DLP) makes FSS the most comprehensive solution for secure file import.

High protection level

The FSS uses multi-scanning to achieve high malware detection rates. An advanced threat detection and prevention technology that increases detection rates, decreases outbreak detection time and provides resiliency to anti-malware vendor issues.

The Data Diode DD1000i from Advenica guarantees a unidirectional data flow from sender to receiver, providing a state-of-the-art solution for protection against software supply chain attacks and other file-based vulnerabilities.

  • Handling external files used to be one of our biggest risks. With the FSS solution in place, we finally have a secure and controlled way to import data into protected environments.

FAQ

Which anti-malware engines are used for file scanning?

Together with our partner OPSWAT we can offer over 30 different anti-malware engines, available in different license packages from 8 up to max engines.

How do you keep the engines updated?

FSS includes an automatic update service that keeps the engines always up to date. The file scanning process and destination environment are securely segmented from the update service using data diodes.

What can you offer besides anti-malware scanning?

Through our partner OPSWAT, we can offer advanced threat detection and prevention technologies such as Deep Content Disarm and Reconstruction (Deep CDR), File-Based Vulnerability Assessment, Proactive DLP (Data Loss Prevention) and sandboxing (Adaptive sandbox).
