Secured Perimeter and Cross-Domain Data Workflows
for Federal Mission Owners
OPSWAT secures every file and device crossing federal civilian, DoD, and IC network boundaries, protected by layered threat prevention, sandbox detonation, content verification, and supply-chain provenance, all through the MetaDefender platform.
File Security
Prevent file-borne malware from reaching production systems. MetaDefender scans, sanitizes, and verifies every file before it's trusted.
Peripheral and Removable Media Protection
Control what enters your critical environment through USB drives, portable devices, and transient assets with kiosk-based scanning and compliance enforcement at the perimeter.
Managed File Transfer
Move files securely across network boundaries with built-in threat prevention, policy enforcement, and full audit trails, without exposing sensitive environments.
Data Diode and Security Gateway Solutions
Enable hardware-enforced unidirectional data transfer between network segments. OPSWAT data diodes and security gateways protect air-gapped and segmented networks with zero risk of reverse data flow.
Storage Security
Scan and sanitize files in cloud storage, on-premises repositories, and file-sharing platforms, preventing malware and data leakage without disrupting workflows.
Email Security
Neutralize weaponized attachments and embedded threats before they reach the inbox. Deep CDR™ Technology and Metascan™ multiscanning technologies applied to every inbound message.
Access and Endpoint Security
Assess and enforce device posture before granting network access. The OESIS Framework gives security vendors and IT teams the tools to verify endpoint compliance across managed and unmanaged devices.

MetaDefender AI-Powered Platform
MetaDefender is OPSWAT's AI platform for critical infrastructure protection — where all data is scanned, sanitized, verified, and controlled before it moves deeper into an environment. OPSWAT delivers zero trust, prevention-first cybersecurity that secures data movement and workflows across Cloud, IT, OT, and Cross Domain environments. OPSWAT's AI is embedded natively across the platform, making threat prevention faster, more proactive, and capable of stopping AI-generated threats that legacy tools can't see.

MetaDefender Technology Stack
Most cybersecurity vendors are building AI to triage alerts faster, orchestrate responses, or protect AI models themselves. OPSWAT builds AI to prevent threats at the data layer — stopping malicious content before it executes, not after it is detected.
OPSWAT layers Deep CDR™ Technology, Metascan™ Multiscanning, AI-driven threat prediction, Adaptive Sandbox, and AI-powered content verification technologies to prevent, detect, and neutralize threats before they execute.

Common Questions About OPSWAT for Federal and Defense
Yes. MetaDefender NetWall is engineered to NSA Raise-the-Bar guidance for cross-domain solutions, including hardware-enforced unidirectional transfer, dual-content inspection paths, and protocol-break architecture. NetWall is deployed across SCIF, SIPR, and JWICS environments where federal civilian, DoD, and IC mission owners require validated, hardware-class file transfer between domains.
OPSWAT MetaDefender Cloud holds FedRAMP authorization, and the MetaDefender Platform on-premises deployments are pre-validated against the NIST 800-53 controls that underpin FedRAMP High. Federal civilian agencies and DoD mission owners can deploy OPSWAT in FedRAMP boundaries with documented control inheritance and an SSP-ready package.
OPSWAT maps directly to CMMC 2.0 Level 2 and Level 3 control families covering Access Control, System and Communications Protection, System and Information Integrity, Media Protection, and Configuration Management. Defense Industrial Base contractors and federal civilian programs deploy MetaDefender Core, Multiscanning, Deep CDR, Sandbox, and Kiosk to meet the 110 NIST 800-171 controls underlying CMMC 2.0.
Yes. OPSWAT is deployment-ready for DoD Impact Level 5 and Impact Level 6 enclaves. MetaDefender Core, NetWall, Sandbox, and Kiosk are deployable in IL5 environments holding controlled unclassified information and in IL6 enclaves operating Secret-class workloads, with on-premises and air-gapped deployment options that meet DoD mission owner requirements.
OPSWAT deploys natively into SCIF, SIPR, and JWICS environments through MetaDefender NetWall hardware data diodes, MetaDefender Core for file scanning and sanitization, and MetaDefender Kiosk for removable media at the SCIF entry. All components support fully air-gapped operation, signed offline updates, and cross-domain workflows aligned to NSA Raise-the-Bar.
OPSWAT MetaDefender integrates with the CISA Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation (CDM) program through documented data feeds for asset visibility, configuration compliance, and vulnerability data. Federal civilian agencies under CDM can ingest OPSWAT telemetry into their agency dashboard and the federal CDM dashboard, supporting M-22-09 Zero Trust and the visibility pillar of the federal Zero Trust strategy.
OPSWAT protects organizations across energy, nuclear, government, defense, manufacturing, financial services, healthcare, transportation, and oil and gas: any sector operating critical infrastructure that requires advanced threat prevention, regulatory compliance, and protection for both IT and OT environments.
Metascan™ multiscanning is OPSWAT's technology that simultaneously analyzes files with 30+ leading anti-malware engines. By combining signatures, heuristics, and machine learning from multiple vendors in a single scan, Metascan™ detects over 99% of known malware, significantly higher than any single engine alone.
