Network security by evaluating the contextual intelligence at a deeper level for the endpoint. This is great news for companies that want to be able to protect their assets by gaining control over endpoint devices that may expose them to future cyber-attacks.No Silver Bullet — Is Antivirus Dead?Protecting endpoints is no easy task, especially if a company has a large remote workforce. We all know that monitoring endpoints with only one antivirus engine does not provide comprehensive protection from cyber threats. In fact, the EPP (Endpoint Protection Platform) leader Symantec went as far as to publicly declare antivirus as dead. However, looking at Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Endpoint Protection Platforms, you realize that the case is just the opposite; EPP and antivirus are not dead, but are rather thriving in both the business and consumer markets. At OPSWAT, we are seeing parallels in Gartner's discussion about EPPs adding allowlisting, content security and MDM (Mobile Device Management) features. We have also seen continued and new interest from EPPs in adding our application removal technology, Gears, for Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUAs), vulnerability assessment, and patch management technologies from other companies to their arsenal of capabilities.Stay Up-to-Date With OPSWAT!Sign up today to receive the latest company updates, stories, event info, and more.

Home/ Blog / HIPAA Compliance Enforcement for Endpoints Experts agree that the encryption state of endpoint devices will be a focus in 2014 for federal regulators enforcing HIPAA compliance. According to the "Fourth Annual Benchmark Study on Patient Privacy & Data Security" by the Ponemon Institute, the average cost of data breaches to a healthcare organization "is approximately $2 million over a two-year period". While significant, this is even more alarming when you realize that the "most significant breaches in terms of records lost are caused by Lost/Stolen Media", according to "The Financial Impact of Breached Protected Health Information" by ANSI.How do you know that everyone with access to your data has their hard disk encrypted?Enforcing HIPAA technology compliance regulations across all employees and contractors can be a challenge for any healthcare organization. When you factor in the increased use of BYOD in organizations it quickly becomes an unmanageable situation. An administrator needs to ensure that those with access to the organization's network maintain their hard disk encryption state as well as have a password set at all times. Additionally, the administrator needs to confirm that those Guest or BYOD devices adhere to the security and compliance policies for the organization at all times. To accomplish this efficiently, tools need to be in place that provide the ongoing analysis of the security and compliance state of endpoints, as well as the ability to prevent access to the network for those devices that fail to meet the defined requirements. These tools are needed to allow you, as an IT administrator, to say confidently that all of the devices under your control adhere to your HIPAA compliance requirements.OPSWAT's newest platform, Gears, helps technology administrators of healthcare organizations, both large and small, by providing the tools to define and enforce the HIPAA technology compliance controls. Using a solution like Gears that can monitor the encryption state of a device and whether the device is password protected is crucial for these organizations. Through a unique dashboard you are able to quickly gain insight into the state of all the endpoints within an organization, and quickly hone in on those devices that do not have their hard disks encrypted or passwords set. Gears allows administrators to be alerted immediately if a device falls out of compliance or prevent access to a network if a user fails to meet compliance.Watch the video below to see how to configure Gears to provide this automation for your healthcare organization.Stay Up-to-Date With OPSWAT!Sign up today to receive the latest company updates, stories, event info, and more.

Home/ Blog / OPSWAT Brings Data Sanitization to Windows… OPSWAT today announced the availability of MetaDefender data sanitization (CDR) technology within MetaDefender Client, the company's offering for protecting organizations from malware coming through USB drives and other portable media.OPSWAT data sanitization, or Content Disarm and Reconstruction (CDR), technology is the company's flagship offering for helping organizations prevent zero-day or unknown attacks originating from document-borne embedded malware. Data sanitization (CDR) is available in OPSWAT MetaDefender solutions and can be deployed for protecting web portal applications from file uploads, malicious email attachments, or files traversing any ICAP-enabled device. With this new release of MetaDefender Client, the company extends its data sanitization technology to files transferred via portable media.Organizations often have to balance the need for employees to share, open, and edit productivity files, such as Microsoft Office or Adobe Acrobat documents, with the need to protect themselves from threats that can be spread in those file types. The latest release of data sanitization (CDR) in MetaDefender Client allows files to be used flexibly on endpoints after being sanitized to remove any embedded threats."We're excited to bring data sanitization to our MetaDefender Client customers," said Horacio Zambrano, VP of Product Marketing at OPSWAT. "With this offering, our MetaDefender platform and solutions now cover the full spectrum of entry points for file-embedded malware."MetaDefender Client is the only endpoint USB control solution that combines data sanitization (CDR) with multi-scanning for comprehensive protection against known and unknown threats. The data sanitization functionality now available in MetaDefender Client has rich policies that enable use only after scanning to ensure threats are thwarted.Tony Berning, Senior Product Manager at OPSWAT, explained, "We believe that making the detection and prevention of threats as seamless as possible is key to ensuring compliance with data security policies. By bringing data sanitization technology

To the endpoint in MetaDefender Client, we can make the removal of potential threats from productivity documents a standard part of the process of accessing such files from USB drives and eliminate any extra steps that could be intentionally or unintentionally skipped by individuals looking to speed up the process."In addition to including support for data sanitization (CDR), the latest release of MetaDefender Client enhances the options available for validating media that have been previously processed by MetaDefender Kiosk. Both improvements significantly raise the level of security on endpoints against threats hidden within productivity documents.
