MetaDefender Endpoint
Protect endpoints and removable media against files that could introduce a threat into the organisation.

Application
Control at the end of the process
MetaDefender Endpoint supports security controls for endpoints and removable media used in daily work or infrastructure maintenance.
It is particularly relevant where devices operate with limited connectivity, face operational requirements or handle files from external sources.
Key capabilities
Endpoint control
The organisation can define which devices and file-exchange channels require additional inspection.
File inspection
Files from media or other sources can be checked before they are used on the device.
Support for isolated environments
The scenario can be adapted to locations with limited or controlled network access.
The exact behaviour depends on the selected variant, operating system, hardware and organisational requirements.
From device to safe work
An example for a device that uses files from outside its own environment.
Identify the device
The device or media is recognised in the context of the applicable policy.
Inspect the content
Files are checked before they are opened, copied or passed to another system.
Apply the rule
The policy determines whether the file is released, held or requires an additional decision.
Record the event
The result can be associated with the device, user and subsequent security handling.
Where it helps
Critical infrastructure
Additional inspection supports devices where uncontrolled files cannot be introduced.
Service providers
Media used during maintenance can follow one consistent inspection process.
Offline environments
The process can be designed for zones without continuous access to cloud services.
Device and exception policy
We first identify devices, media and user roles in the organisation. We then define release rules and the handling of exceptions.
The project also covers updates, logging, fallback operation and responsibility for decisions when a threat is detected.
RAMS DATA
Define rules for devices and media
We can translate security requirements into a process that users and service teams can apply in daily work.
- Identify devices and zones.
- Define file-release rules.
- Plan monitoring and exception handling.
