SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DECONTAMINATING AND CERTIFYING EXTERNAL STORAGE DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240256669 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DECONTAMINATING AND CERTIFYING EXTERNAL STORAGE DEVICES

The present disclosure introduces a cleaning station designed to decontaminate external storage devices from cybersecurity threats. The cleaning station scans files on the external storage device using anti-virus and anti-malware modules to ensure they are free from malicious software. After decontamination, the cleaning station generates an electronic certificate on the external storage device. Additionally, the cleaning station receives updates from a master server through a management server to keep the decontamination modules up to date with signature updates.

  • Decontamination station for external storage devices
  • Scans files using anti-virus and anti-malware modules
  • Generates electronic certificate after decontamination
  • Receives updates from master server for module updates
  • Enhances cybersecurity by removing threats from external storage devices

Potential Applications: - Data centers - IT departments - Cybersecurity firms

Problems Solved: - Protects external storage devices from cyber threats - Ensures files are safe and secure - Prevents malware and viruses from spreading

Benefits: - Enhanced cybersecurity - Peace of mind for users - Efficient and effective decontamination process

Commercial Applications: Title: Cybersecurity Decontamination Station This technology can be used in data centers, IT departments, and cybersecurity firms to ensure the safety and security of external storage devices. It can be marketed as a crucial tool for protecting sensitive data and preventing cyber attacks.

Questions about Cybersecurity Decontamination Station: 1. How does the cleaning station receive updates for its decontamination modules? The cleaning station receives updates from a master server through a management server to ensure the modules are up to date with signature updates.

2. What types of threats can the cleaning station detect and remove from external storage devices? The cleaning station can detect and remove malware, viruses, and other cybersecurity threats from external storage devices.


Original Abstract Submitted

the present disclosure provides a cleaning station configured to decontaminate external storage devices from cybersecurity threats. the cleaning station is configured to scan files in the external storage device using a decontamination means, the decontamination means including one or more anti-virus modules and one or more anti-malware modules. the cleaning station decontaminates the external storage device, and generates an electronic certificate on the external storage device. the cleaning station receives an update signal from a master server, through a management server, which ensures the decontamination means are updated with signatures updates.
