Implementing Anti-Malware as Security-as-a-Service from Cloud

摘要

In Security-as-a-service model the objective is to provide security as one of the cloud services. In this model the security is provided from the cloud in place of traditional on-premise implementation. The objective of this initiative is to provide Anti-Malware functionality as a cloud service. This paper provides implementation framework for Anti-Malware system from the cloud as a service. The framework uses several existing file scanning web-based anti-malware engines. The Anti-Malware SecaaS offers all the benefits provided by Security-as-a-Service (SecaaS) model. The proof-of-concept (POC) prototype of Anti-Malware AM-SecaaS is implemented and evaluated successfully. An innovative approach is used to integrate this POC with other SecaaS options so that various SecaaS options are provided to users intelligently and transparently.
