Detect Embedded Malware in File Shares and Storage Platforms

Securing File Shares and Collaboration Workflows for New and Latent Malware Threats

TALK TO US NOW

Keep Malware Out of Your File Shares and Storage

Enterprises rely on file sharing to enhance productivity and foster collaboration. However, this reliance also introduces significant security risks as each new file added, whether from internal sources or external partners, such as customers and contractors, presents a potential entry point for threat actors. Existing solutions cannot scale to the size, complexity, or volume of files downloaded, shared, and accessed daily. Securing an organization's file-sharing workflow, whether it’s leveraging cloud-based storage or local infrastructure, requires advanced analysis of all files stored, accessed, or downloaded, regardless of source, ensuring they meet the highest standards of safety and integrity.

Share Files Without Sharing Malware

CHALLENGE:
Cloud file shares and storage platforms boost productivity and collaboration for organizations of all sizes. Whether it’s information sharing among employees and internal departments, or with external parties, such as customers, partners, and contractors, cloud file sharing has streamlined business operations and communications. Unfortunately, it’s also led to an unintended invite for malicious files.

SOLUTION:
RL ensures safe file sharing across external and internal sources, including cloud storage platforms like S3, Azure, and GCP,  local SMB/NFS shares, and collaboration tools like OneDrive and SharePoint. Built-in connectors provide automated ingestion, rapid inspection, and immediate classification of files using RL’s world-class repository of billions of goodware and malware files to identify threats before they can spread and infect the broader network. Plus, these connectors can be configured to automatically move files into “clean” and “dirty” folders to ensure that malware is isolated from files not bearing threats. Additionally, security teams can leverage custom YARA rules and retro-hunting to discover latent threats within their storage systems.

Protect Critical File Backups for BC/DR

CHALLENGE:
Organizations have to maintain backups for critical files and data to support business continuity (BC) in the case of disaster recovery (DR) or system failures. Ensuring these backup files stay protected from malware is imperative since the business could be placed at risk if data were compromised anywhere within this infrastructure.

SOLUTION:
RL monitors, analyzes, and alerts on changes in files and archived content stored in both on-premises and cloud-based storage. Additionally, RL enables SOC teams to use advanced search and hunting capabilities to detect unknown threats that slipped by existing security controls. This ensures business-critical files and datastores are free of malicious objects and that re-infection from compromised backups is avoided. Organizations can take comfort in knowing that if data ever needs to be restored, they won’t have to worry about malware propagation from the backup files.
