Varist Malware Detection Engine

Varist Malware Detection Engine is a malware detection solution that uses heuristic emulation-driven detection logic combined with sandboxing capabilities. The engine performs real-time scanning of files to identify malicious content before it enters organizational systems. The solution is designed with a lightweight footprint to operate on resource-constrained hardware appliances or cloud architectures. It can be deployed on Windows, Linux, and FreeBSD platforms, either as a standalone application or as a microservice container. The engine receives up to 40 pattern updates daily to detect emerging threats. It operates with on-premise or offline deployment options, eliminating the requirement for cloud connectivity during operation. The detection engine uses emulation techniques to analyze file behavior and identify malware through heuristic analysis. This approach is intended to reduce false positive rates during scanning operations. The solution provides an SDK for integration into existing systems and can be deployed in various architectures including physical perimeters and cloud environments. It is designed to scale for large file processing operations.
