Real-Time Performance Metrics

Technical Specifications and Benchmarks for File Sanitization and Threat Neutralization.

As file-borne threats continue to evolve, organizations require sanitization solutions that do not compromise operational efficiency. This technical brief details the performance metrics of Menlo Security's Advanced Content Disarm and Reconstruction (CDR) solution, specifically focusing on processing speed, file fidelity, and threat elimination rates.

The document provides data from December 2025 performance tests, analyzing the processing of over 7 billion files. Key metrics include a processing capacity of 100,000+ files per hour and a 0% false positive rate across 180+ supported file types.

Unlike traditional methods that flatten files into PDFs—removing active content and functionality—Menlo Security's approach retains full file usability. The solution supports complex formats, including password-protected archives and ZIP files, which are often bypassed by other vendors.

This report includes a comparative analysis of:

• Processing latency across various file sizes (DOCX, PDF, XLSX, ZIP).
• Handling of active content versus static flattening.
• Maintenance requirements and integration capabilities.

The data demonstrates millisecond-level processing times for standard business documents, ensuring that security measures remain invisible to the end-user while maintaining a zero-breach track record.
