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.

Constellations APIs

Scan Management API

The Scan Management API enables security teams to start file scans and retrieve the status of active file scans within Glasswall Constellations - our zero-trust file import solution.

Scan Results API

Security teams can utilize the Scan Results API to draw key data from Glasswall Constellations. This provides users with the ability to check the results of file scans that have either completed or that are in process.

Gigantic throughput at lightning speed

0.33 GBs per second

1.2 TBs per hour

1 PB per month

Three Kubernetes node pools are recommended to achieve this illustration of throughput as part of an auto-scaling setup.

A peak of 1,900 compute cores distributed across the node pools support this gigantic level of throughput.
