Votiro launches free Cloud-based file sanitization

Votiro has launched a free cloud-based file sanitization service.

Votiro’s new file sanitization service analyzes uploaded files for the presence of malicious code and facilitates the quick neutralization of zero-day exploits and the detection of trojans, viruses and worms. This new file sanitization service sanitizes an uploaded file by making micro-changes to its structure and metadata, which eliminates the possibility of malicious code running from the file, and then scanning it with a series of leading anti-virus programs.

This new file sanitization service is part of Votiro’s overall Secure Data Sanitization solution. Votiro’s Secure Data Sanitization solution automatically performs the same sanitization process as the new cloud service on all incoming files, including files attached to emails, downloaded from the Internet and transferred from removable media. This comprehensive process does not affect the usability of a file and is seamlessly integrated into an organization’s IT infrastructure.

“Our Secure Data Sanitization solution provides zero-day protection that eliminates malicious cyber-threats before they have a chance to penetrate an organization’s network and attack critical IT infrastructure and extract sensitive data,” explained Itay Glick, Founder and CEO of Votiro. “Our new cloud service allows organizations to experience the strengths of our sanitization process and understand the overall benefits of our Secure Data Sanitization solution.”
