Astaro Security Gateway - Mail Security
Antispam, Antiphishing, Antivirus and Email Encryption
Astaro Security Gateway - Mail Security Overview
With Astaro Security Gateway Mail Security, network administrators gain
a simple and effective way to:
Stop Spam
Implement state of the art Anti-spam features to minimise productivity
loss and security vulnerability. Stop threats before they reach
email servers.
Prevent Phishing
Block emails from criminals trying to trick users into revealing
confidential information. Furthermore, prevent unsuspecting users
from clicking links to fraudulent websites.
Block Viruses
Achieve unmatched detection rates for known and unknown malware.
All traffic (SMTP and POP3) is inspected through two scan engines.
Encrypt Emails
Use standard encryption methods to prevent unauthorised interception
of emails. Client software is not required; all processes are transparently
handled at the gateway.
More than 80% of all messages are spam related, phishing attacks
are on the rise, and email spreads the majority of virus and spyware
infections. Email security is therefore a major business requirement
for organisations of all sizes. Furthermore, as the majority of emails
are sent unprotected, comparable to a traditional postcard, organisations
are exposed to major risks, including the loss of vital information
and violating industry regulations when disclosing confidential or proprietary
information.
The Astaro Security Gateway
embodies a unified threat management solution for all of these risks,
combining email filtering and encryption in one powerful appliance.
