OPSWAT – File inspection at IT and OT boundaries
SYNEDAT plans OPSWAT MetaDefender for controlled file flows between users, applications and protected networks. We define which files are inspected or sanitized, how exceptions are handled and who approves release.
Which product family fits your needs?
MetaDefender Core
Integrate file inspection and content disarm and reconstruction into applications. SYNEDAT checks formats, API workflows and usability of reconstructed documents.
MetaDefender ICAP Server / Email Security
Control file flows through web and email systems. We plan queues, timeouts and behavior when inspection is unavailable.
MetaDefender Kiosk
Inspect removable media before entry into protected areas. SYNEDAT aligns operation, labeling, logging and offline requirements.
License scope, availability, term and support are reviewed for your project and specified in the quote.
Where the solution adds value
Secure upload portals
A pilot uses typical business documents. We test allowed formats, encrypted archives, large files and feedback for rejected uploads.
Control media entering production
SYNEDAT defines an auditable handover for maintenance and supplier data. Owners, inspection evidence and exceptions are agreed with operations.
What matters when choosing
- Data and communication channels
- We identify sensitive data, storage locations and recipients, then select controls for email, files, cloud services and external collaboration.
- Policies and exceptions
- Classification and protection rules must fit daily work. We check legitimate transfers, false positives, approvals and responsibility for exceptions.
- Keys and recovery
- Encryption needs reliable key management. We consider ownership, certificates, recovery and collaboration with external recipients.
From selection to deployment
Define requirements and objectives
We review systems, users, security requirements and budget. The result is a reasoned selection with a defined scope.
Validate suitability in a pilot
For an agreed pilot, we define tests, acceptance criteria and responsibilities. You receive a documented basis for the investment decision.
Plan rollout and operations
We plan migration, configuration, handover and support together. Scope and responsibilities are agreed before rollout.

Questions to help you decide
Can sanitization change documents?
Yes. Depending on format and policy, active content may be removed or files reconstructed. Testing your templates checks appearance and required functions before approval.
How are encrypted archives handled?
Uninspectable content needs an explicit process, such as rejection or controlled approval by authorized staff. SYNEDAT agrees and tests that workflow with realistic examples.
How does email encryption differ from anti-phishing?
Encryption protects confidential content. Anti-phishing detects suspicious messages, links or senders. They address different risks and can be combined in a coordinated mail flow.
How can DLP be introduced without unnecessary disruption?
We start with data types, clear rules and an observation phase. Findings guide rule tuning and phased enforcement. Exceptions receive documented approval.
Can I request a demo or pilot first?
Yes. Tell us your intended use case. We will discuss available evaluation options, prerequisites, effort and acceptance criteria. A pilot is agreed separately before it starts.
What does SYNEDAT need for a quote?
Useful details include product family, deployment location, current systems, user or device count and target date. We clarify open points together and distinguish the product, implementation and ongoing services in the quote.
Can SYNEDAT help with rollout and ongoing operations?
We agree the services you need, such as architecture, integration, migration, documentation or operational support. Vendor support, response times and ongoing assistance are explicitly defined in the agreed scope.
