Abstract
A method, non-transitory computer readable medium, and device that provides an externally deployable malware protection architecture comprising one or more anti-malware engines for malware inspection of one or more files within a cloud storage environment. The one of the files is tested to detect for any malware by an executing one of the anti-malware engines supported by one or more anti-malware libraries. At least one of a plurality of actions on the at least one file is executed when the test indicates the detection of malware in the at least one of the files.
Claims24
A method for providing malware protection for cloud storage, the method comprising:
- providing, by a computing device, an externally deployable malware protection architecture comprising one or more anti-malware engines for malware inspection of one or more files within a cloud storage environment;
- testing, by the computing device, to detect when at least one of the files has any malware by an executing one of the anti-malware engines supported by one or more anti-malware libraries;
- and
- executing, by the computing device, at least one of a plurality of actions on the at least one file when the testing indicates the detection of malware in the at least one of the files.
A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon instructions comprising executable code that, when executed by one or more processors, causes the one or more processors to:
- provide an externally deployable malware protection architecture comprising one or more anti-malware engines for malware inspection of one or more files within a cloud storage environment;
- test to detect when at least one of the files has any malware by an executing one of the anti-malware engines supported by one or more anti-malware libraries;
- and
- execute at least one of a plurality of actions on the at least one file when the testing indicates the detection of malware in the at least one of the files.
A cloud storage malware detection device comprising memory comprising programmed instructions stored thereon and one or more processors configured to be capable of executing the stored programmed instructions to:
- provide an externally deployable malware protection architecture comprising one or more anti-malware engines for malware inspection of one or more files within a cloud storage environment;
- test to detect when at least one of the files has any malware by an executing one of the anti-malware engines supported by one or more anti-malware libraries;
- and
- execute at least one of a plurality of actions on the at least one file when the testing indicates the detection of malware in the at least one of the files.
