Overview

The Suspicious File Scanner is a security-focused API that analyzes files to identify potentially malicious or suspicious characteristics. By leveraging advanced threat detection techniques, this tool helps organizations screen files before they enter their systems, reducing the risk of malware infections, ransomware, and other file-based attacks.

This API is ideal for security teams, developers building defense-in-depth solutions, and organizations that need automated file validation as part of their security workflows. Whether you're protecting email gateways, web upload portals, or endpoint systems, the Suspicious File Scanner provides rapid threat assessment to complement your existing security infrastructure.

The tool processes files through multiple detection heuristics and returns comprehensive analysis results, enabling you to make informed decisions about file acceptance or quarantine. Integration is straightforward via multipart file uploads, making it easy to embed file scanning into existing applications.
