This is the initial release of F-Secure Atlant. 

F-Secure Atlant is a platform for building applications that are able to scan and detect malicious files.

Atlant provides a REST API for scanning files and managing the product configuration. Applications and services can use the API resources to analyze content using always up-to-date heuristics and statistical techniques. Atlant provides a scanning service to protect clients against viruses and other harmful files, exploits, network-based attacks, and other security threats.

Features and Benefits

The development kit offers the scanning functionality that utilizes multiple scanning engines and cloud-based file and network reputation services. 

When deployed, the scanning service: 

  • scans files, emails and URLs for harmful content,
  • protects content in real-time using cloud-based scanning,
  • includes cloud-based reputation services for both files and network addresses,
  • scans both HTTP requests and responses,
  • includes multiple scanning engines,
  • ICAP support, and
  • is always up to date.

Supported Platforms

Atlant supports the following Linux distributions: 

  • CentOS 7
  • CentOS 8
  • RHEL 7
  • RHEL 8
  • Oracle Linux 7
  • Oracle Linux 8
  • Amazon Linux 2.0
  • Debian 9
  • Ubuntu 16.04
  • Ubuntu 18.04
  • SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12

Installation Packages

Documentation

Atlant documentation is available as a PDF. The documentation covers product installation and documents how the API can be used.

    Dear Samuel,

    I wish to ask whether "F-Secure Atlant" is essentially the version 6 of FSAV Internet Gatekeeper for Linux product?

    Thanks in advance, Yours Sincerely: Tamas Feher, Hungary.
