Today’s organizations face increasingly sophisticated cyber threats. Classic antivirus solutions are no longer sufficient to protect infrastructure from multi-vector attacks, ransomware or zero-day threats. Companies need tools that analyze, filter and secure files on multiple levels before they reach the infrastructure. One of the most effective solutions is OPSWAT Metadefender Core – an advanced security platform that provides multi-engine scanning, CDR technology and full integration with an organization’s systems. In this article, we explain what the implementation of Metadefender Core provides and why it is becoming the foundation of protection against modern cyber attacks.
Key findings

Summary
Why organizations need advanced protection
The increase in ransomware attacks, malicious attachments and targeted phishing campaigns is making traditional security no longer effective. Files used as an attack vector can easily leak into the infrastructure if they are not properly checked. Companies need to implement solutions that analyze data on multiple levels to prevent incidents and maintain business continuity.
What is OPSWAT Metadefender Core
OPSWAT Metadefender Core is a comprehensive cybersecurity platform that provides multi-layered file analysis. The tool scans, verifies and sanitizes documents before they are allowed into a company’s infrastructure. The system can be integrated with network gateways, applications, DevOps processes, data repositories and file sharing systems.
Key security technologies
The platform uses several protection mechanisms:
– multi-engine antivirus scanning – more than a dozen independent engines detect threats that a single mechanism will not identify
– CDR (Content Disarm & Reconstruction) – removes active file elements, such as macros or scripts
– file and source reputation analysis
– access control and security policies
– sandboxing and behavioral analysis
This provides the organization with multi-layered protection.
Key benefits of implementation
– Significant reduction in the risk of infected infrastructure
– protection against ransomware, phishing and zero-day threats
– protection of files before they are allowed into systems
– full integration with existing IT infrastructure
– support for compliance with cyber security regulations (NIS2, RODO, ISO27001)
– protection regardless of file type, format and source
For whom this solution is intended
Metadefender Core is recommended for organizations that:
– process sensitive data (finance, energy, medical, public sector)
– use multiple file sharing channels
– need advanced protection for DevOps processes
– want to secure network gateways, repositories, APIs and integrations
– have a high risk of cyber attacks
FAQ
Does Metadefender Core work in the cloud and on-premises?
Yes, the system supports both deployment models.
Does CDR modify files?
It does not change content – it only removes elements that may pose a threat.
Is the platform scalable?
Yes, it can grow with the needs of the organization.
Summary
OPSWAT Metadefender Core is a key component of the cyber security architecture of modern organizations. With multi-engine scanning, CDR technology and comprehensive integration with corporate systems, the platform significantly reduces the risk of cyber attacks. Its implementation allows you to effectively protect your data, ensure regulatory compliance and enhance the security of your entire IT infrastructure.
