Case Study: Public Sector Agency protects its Amazon S3 data lake from infected files with Cloud Storage Security

Public Sector Agency - Customer Case Study

a public sector agency faced a significant security challenge with its Amazon S3 data lake, which ingested terabytes of data monthly from third parties. The agency lacked a way to scan this data for malware, creating a major security risk for itself and its partner agencies. They required a scalable, automated antivirus solution that could handle massive file sizes and complex proprietary formats without disrupting their workflow.

Cloud Storage Security implemented its Antivirus for Amazon S3 solution. The deployment successfully scanned an average of 10 TB of data per month, with files up to 5 TB in size, ensuring compliance with federal security mandates. The agency integrated the solution with its security operations center for real-time alerts and achieved significant cost savings. Cloud Storage Security provided the agency with a secure, scalable defense, protecting its critical data from infected files.
