OPSWAT Filescan.io, powered by MetaDefender Aether™, is a cloud-based malware analysis and zero-day detection service designed to help security teams identify known, unknown, and evasive file-based threats. Rather than relying on a single detection method, Filescan.io uses MetaDefender Aether’s five-layer zero-day detection pipeline to progressively analyze files based on risk. The pipeline combines threat reputation, Pre-Execution AI analysis, emulation-based dynamic analysis, threat scoring, and ML-powered threat hunting to deliver a consolidated verdict with detailed behavioral context.
