Glasswall and RL: Enhancing CDR with Advanced Threat Intelligence

ReversingLabs is excited to announce a groundbreaking integration with Glasswall, a leader in zero-trust file protection. This collaboration enhances risk mitigation by leveraging ReversingLabs' vast database of 40 billion known goodware and malware samples alongside Glasswall's advanced Content Disarm and Reconstruction (CDR) technology.

Glasswall is a cybersecurity company on a mission to remove the inherent risks in files and documents. The NSA mandates that its battle-hardened CDR technology be used as a file filter in Cross Domain Solutions, and it is trusted and deployed by the world’s most secure agencies and security-conscious organizations.

What is Content Disarm and Reconstruction (CDR)?

Unlike traditional file security methods that rely on detecting known threats, Glasswall’s CDR takes a proactive approach – rebuilding files to a clean, known-good standard. This ensures that even the most sophisticated threats, including zero-day malware, are rendered harmless before they reach an organization’s network.

CDR works by:

• Disassembling incoming files
• Removing any potentially harmful elements
• Reconstructing the files with only safe components

This process effectively neutralizes known and unknown threats, including zero-day vulnerabilities, without relying on traditional detection methods.
