There are no guarantees about the availability, reliability and continuity of the Metascan Online service. Although detection rates associated with using multiple antivirus engines are generally superior to that of using just one, OPSWAT does not guarantee that a file uploaded will be properly scanned, analyzed and identified. Metascan Online should not be a substitute for a licensed desktop or gateway-based antivirus software. Metascan Online only scans uploaded files on demand. Metascan Online does not offer ongoing protection for your personal computer. All files uploaded through Metascan Online are subject to internal use by OPSWAT and malware samples may be shared with OPSWAT's partners.
