Your existing security deployments are compromising cross domain file transfers

The migration of large quantities of files between storage containers, and across networks is a necessity for many organizations. However, much of this data remains untrusted and ensuring the safety of files at the petabyte scale presents a challenge for security teams.

Detection-based solutions, such as antivirus and sandboxes, can still only protect against what they have seen before. They also take time to process files and the risk of generating false positives and negatives hampers efficiency when transferring large amounts of data across networks.
