How to protect your S3 buckets from cyber-attacks with advanced ransomware and malware scanning

S3 is by far the most used AWS storage platform – making it a common entry and distribution point for malware and ransomware. If this malware finds a host to run on, the impact can be devastating to your organization as well as to third parties and consumers. 

Security best practices and leading compliance standards (NIST, SWIFT, UK Government protocols) stress the importance of scanning files in cloud storage before they are accessed by applications or human users. When you don’t, you leave your organization vulnerable to cyber attacks who use these files as a gateway and distribution point for malware and ransomware.

Watch this webinar to learn exactly how to protect the data in your S3 buckets. We will walk through use cases for S3 scanning including cloud migration, compliance regulations, web uploads, data pipelines, and more.
