Existing security solutions leave cloud data at risk
It is common for Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) to deploy Cross Domain Solutions (CDS) to enable to the exchange of information between networks with a high degree of control.
However, legacy CDS rely on detection-based solutions, such as antivirus and sandbox technologies, and are unable to adequately protect CSPs and their clients against new (zero-day) threats. In addition, compliance with industry initiatives is difficult, as they are unable to verify complex data types, or remove active code within documents.
The solution:
Zero-trust file protection
with Glasswall CDR
Glasswall CDR’s Zero-trust file protection is different – instead of looking for malicious content, our advanced CDR process treats all files as untrusted, validating, cleaning and rebuilding each one against their manufacturers known good specification.
With Glasswall CDR, Cloud Service Providers can transfer critical data across secure networks to enable compliance with frameworks such as the UK’s NCSC pattern for Safely Importing Data & the US’ Raise The Bar strategy for cross domain solutions from the NSA.
“CDR is an important layer in any organization’s defence and content protection strategies… We expect CDR will ultimately be considered a best practice.”
Use cases
Secure CDS deployments
With Glasswall CDR Cloud Service Providers can transfer critical data across secure networks to enable compliance with frameworks such as the NCSC’s pattern for safely importing data, the NIST Risk Management Framework by the NSA and NCDSMO.
Our zero-trust philosophy removes security teams’ reliance on detection – replacing it with a zero-trust file protection solution that raises the bar on CDS protection.
