Do you offer a pure offline deployment/upgrade process?

Unfortunately, not (yet).

OPSWAT Filescan (Sandbox) comes with hundreds of dependencies and multiple Docker containers that require an internet connection to download all of the interdependencies, machine-learning training data, latest threat indicators, etc. Here's an excerpt of the host level dependencies: https://docs.opswat.com/filescan/datasheet/installed-packages-by-filescan

However, we do support operating OPSWAT Filescan in an air-gapped environment. See the "Important notes for air-gapped systems" section on the installation page: https://docs.opswat.com/filescan/installation/quick-installation

In general, we recommend operating OPSWAT Filescan (Sandbox) in a DMZ with enabled internet connectivity, as it comes with a variety of advantages:

  • Our automated background update jobs will give you the latest YARA rules to detect emerging threats in near real-time
  • The "URL analysis" features for phishing detection requires internet to render URLs in a browser and capture all GET/POST requests
  • Downloading & analysing second stage payloads from extracted URLs requires an internet connection
  • You extract more IOCs overall
