Zero-trust file protection for critical infrastructure providers

Critical data is left exposed by detection-based solutions

Governments and civilians around the world depend on the delivery of services by critical infrastructure organizations – meaning the cost of a successful cyberattack can be catastrophic.

Many critical infrastructure organizations still rely on detection-based solutions, such as antivirus software and sandboxes, to protect their networks against file-based threats.

However, a security infrastructure built on detection falls short because, no matter how complex a security solution may be, it can still only protect against what it has seen before.

The Solution:

Zero-trust file protection with Glasswall CDR

Zero-trust file protection by Glasswall is different. Instead of looking for malicious content, our patented CDR process treats all files as untrusted — validating, rebuilding and cleaning each to a safe and compliant standard — automatically removing potential threats.

Security teams can embed our cloud-native CDR engine across their infrastructure, utilizing an out of the box CDR solution, Glasswall Halo, which comes ready to implement with its own UI and reporting dashboards. Alternatively, for organizations that want to build Glasswall CDR into their existing systems, our embedded SDK enables teams to implement zero-trust file protection into their software applications and network deployments.

“

CDR is an important layer in any organization’s defense and content protection strategies… We expect CDR will ultimately be considered a best practice.”

Use cases

Supercharge CDS deployments

Critical infrastructure organizations need no longer accept the risks associated with traditional antivirus solutions when importing and exporting files to and from secure networks.
‍
Glasswall integrates with new and existing CDS deployments to enable compliance with frameworks such as the UK’s NCSC pattern for Safely Importing Data & NSA's Raise The Bar strategy for cross domain solutions.

Glasswall’s philosophy removes security teams’ reliance on detection – replacing it with a zero-trust file protection solution that raises the bar on CDS protection.

Secure file uploads against file-based threats

There is no longer the need for organizations to rely on detection-based solutions to provide protection against malicious content uploaded to their internal networks, via websites or upload portals.

Glasswall CDR can be implemented at various points within the upload process – ensuring that all uploaded files are secured by our unrivalled zero-trust file protection capabilities.

Delivering data protection compliance

Glasswall CDR boasts patented capabilities such as Word Search and Redact and Metadata removal that aid critical infrastructure organisations across the globe in complying with the various data protection legislation and other industry guidelines. These include, but are not limited to:

• GDPR

• KYC

• CSS

• PII

• PCI

Glasswall’s policy management tools give security teams complete control over what information is removed from files and documents.
