What FileSure Defend Does

FileSure Defend works at the Windows kernel level — below the operating system, below your applications — intercepting file operations before they complete. You define the rules. FileSure enforces them, silently, on every protected machine.

Stops Ransomware and Malware

Ransomware can't encrypt your files if it can't write to them. FileSure blocks unauthorized programs from modifying, creating, or deleting files — without needing to recognize the threat first. Zero-day ransomware is stopped the same way as known ransomware: it simply isn't allowed to run.

Prevents Data Theft

Define which applications can access which files. Block USB writes. Prevent files from being uploaded via webmail or synced to Dropbox, OneDrive, or Google Drive. If an employee tries to walk out the door with your data, FileSure stops them — and records the attempt.

Creates Complete Audit Trails

Every file operation — read, write, create, delete, rename — is logged with the user's name, the program used, the timestamp, and the machine. Audit logs are encrypted, tamper-resistant, and ready for your compliance review.

Monitors Privileged Users

Admins can do damage too. FileSure records what they do just like everyone else, giving you the oversight that native Windows logging doesn't provide.

Centrally Managed. Silently Enforced.

Server Component

$1,250/year

The management console lives on one machine. From there you create rules, push policies, run reports, and review alerts across your entire deployment. Rules go out automatically — no touching individual machines.

Workstation/Server Agent

$65/year per workstation

Silent. Invisible to end users. Enforces whatever policies you've set, even when the machine is disconnected from your network. Can't be disabled by the user.

Works On

Legacy and modern Windows systems
Windows Server 2003 through Server 2022

System Requirements

512MB RAM, 1GB disk space, any x86/x64 processor, .NET Framework 3.5+

Performance Impact

Less than 2% CPU impact. 50MB memory footprint. Your users won't notice it's there.

You Decide What's Allowed. FileSure Enforces It.

FileSure's rules engine is where the real power lives. You can write rules as broad or as narrow as your situation requires.

Rules can be based on:

  • File operation (read, write, create, delete, rename)
  • File type or file name
  • Folder location (local drive, network drive, USB, CD/DVD)
  • User name or Active Directory group
  • Program name (which application is doing the operation)
  • Machine name
  • Time of day or day of week

Examples of what customers actually do:

  • Block any executable from being written to the hard drive (stops ransomware and malware cold)
  • Record all access to the folder containing your most sensitive documents
  • Prevent Outlook, Chrome, and Edge from uploading files to the internet
  • Block USB writes for everyone except the IT admin group
  • Alert when more than 100 files are deleted in an hour
  • Record who opened the payroll spreadsheet and when

If you have a specific scenario we haven't covered with predefined rules, our team can write a custom rule for your environment.
