Solutions Purpose:
Currently, large organizations, including corporations, are being targeted by hacker groups, especially those from Eastern Europe and East Asia. Hacker groups carry out a series of email phishing campaigns, distributing hundreds of thousands of emails containing malicious code to organizations and businesses. When the user opens the email and the attachment, the malware will be activated and carry out activities that destroy the organization.
In recent times, targeted attacks with malware have caused significant damage to organizations such as:
- A lot of information about the company’s customers and projects is stolen.
- Ransomware types encrypt important information, causing damage up to tens of millions of USD.
- Disruption of business activities.
- Losing the image of the organization’s reputation to consumers, affecting the goals of business plans and strategies.
Organizations have equipped many security solutions; however, completely preventing malicious code, especially zero-day malware, has become a concern for many security managers. Current solutions on the market, such as endpoint security or sandboxing, cannot bring peace of mind or safety to information technology systems. Hackers can easily create zero-day malware and bypass all security controls.
The purpose of documenting this solution is to provide Enterprises with a system to detect and prevent malicious code (especially zero-day malware) in the most effective way. With unique multi-scanning technology and CDR (completely disables zero-day malware), enterprises can be assured that malicious code cannot penetrate via email.
Overview of MetaDefender solution technology:
OPSWAT has developed a malware attack prevention platform, Metadefender, that does not rely on detection techniques. MetaDefender Platform is trusted by organizations with the highest levels of security, such as energy plant facilities (oil and gas, power, nuclear), government agencies, and financial institutions. More than 98% of US nuclear facilities use the Metadefender Platform, and today OPSWAT is the leading provider of malware detection and prevention solutions worldwide.
This platform helps enterprises detect and prevent threats from attacking through various channels such as email, web, BYOD, file copy from external devices and Cloud. With flexibility in workflow configuration, MetaDefender can effectively stop threats. MetaDefender uses a specialized technology – “data disinfection” (deep Content Disarm and Reconstruction – deep CDR) to remove all harmful components in the file, ensuring that the file, when reaching the user, is absolutely safe and has no risk of harm. To create more system security, in addition to the MetaDefender deep CDR platform, it also incorporates multi-scanning, vulnerability detection and data loss prevention (DLP) technologies.
Based on the MetaDefender platform, OPSWAT provides solutions to detect and prevent malware according to the following model:
Uses and functions of MetaDefender Email Security solution:
- Preventing malicious emails that can bypass the Sandbox: With the evolution of malware types, they can easily bypass the Sandbox or anti-malware system available in Office 365 or G Suite. To effectively prevent malware (both known, unknown, or zero-day attacks), MetaDefender Email Security uses today’s market-leading technologies, multi-scanning and deep CDR to protect enterprise systems against malicious emails without affecting the performance of the email server. MetaDefender Email Security also uses the DLP feature to detect and prevent sensitive information from being blasted outside.
- Second layer of defense for Email Security Gateway: Email security gateway offers a variety of ways to protect email, but it’s still not absolute. MetaDefender Email Security reinforces the email security gateway’s ability to detect and block malicious email with multi-scanning techniques (more than 30 AV engines, inheriting signature and heuristic malware detection methods, machine learning from experts that provides AV solutions) and deep CDR. With deployment model flexibility, MetaDefender Email Security can protect on-prem email or cloud email systems like Office 365 or G Suite.

Highlighted features of MetaDefender Email Security:
- “Disinfection” of malicious emails – deep CDR technology helps clean email content or attachments by completely removing components that could potentially harbor malware. The cleaned files will be sent to the recipient; then, the recipient can safely use them without worrying about malware threats.
- Malware detection in emails – with multi-scanning technology (with more than 30 AV engines combining signature, heuristics, and machine learning methods), MetaDefender Email Security can quickly detect known or unknown malware as well as protect your system from the fastest malware outbreak.
- High performance – MetaDefender Email Security is developed with malware detection and blocking technology without affecting email system performance. With an architecture developed for high-performance environments, MetaDefender Email Security can scale with any large email traffic system.
Investment Benefits:
With nearly 20 years of developing technologies for multi-scanning, CDR detecting and disabling malware, OPSWAT is a trusted supplier for many organizations and businesses worldwide with the demand for malware detection and prevention, especially zero-day malware.
