Executing a robust cyber strategy in supply-chain platform


Background
Centersource provides an end-to-end supply chain automation platform to multiple businesses globally. The platform facilitates the cooperation and data sharing among supply chain counterparts, with countless vendors, users and customers uploading and sending files through file transfer portals.

Challenge
As a young, rapidly growing company, Centersource decided not to wait until a security incident forced its hand. As a platform that facilitated cooperation and data sharing among supply chain partners, it aimed to demonstrate an ability that surpassed the status quo in terms of minimizing malware infection risk.

Solution
Centersource determined that Deep File Inspection technology based on CDR (content disarm and reconstruction) algorithms should be added as an advanced security layer to their platform and chose to deploy NetFolder. Files sanitized by NetFolder provided a fully functioning and malware-free format to Centersource within a few seconds, without any impact on data accessibility or system latency.

Key takeaway
Vendors with cloud-based business applications should use the latest and most robust technologies when it comes to securing their platforms. In many cases, these platforms store sensitive files and are vulnerable to file—based attacks. NetFolder provides an advanced security layer utilizing CDR and deep file inspection to prevent malware intrusion on a highly granular level.
