Eliminate Wasteful Archiving of spam
Many regulations stipulate that you must archive all email messages that aredelivered to the email server - whether they are good messagesor spam. Secure Mail Edge saves you thousands of dollars by deleting spam messages well before the mail server ever sees them and eliminating the need to archive them for years.
Powerful Messaging Protection
The global reputation service provided by TrustedSource allows Secure Mail Edge to allow or reject email messages based on a number of algorithms and analysis, including:
- LDAP rejection - messages addressed to individuals not included in the corporate LDAP are automatically dropped
- IP reputation - messages from known bad senders are automatically dropped
- Message reputation - messages containing known bad content (even if the sender is unknown) are automatically dropped
- anti-virus signature - messages containing viruses identified by the anti-virus signature file are automatically dropped
- Directory harvest attacks - connection is closed after a defined number of rejections due to invalid recipient address is reached
- Traffic shaping - messages from unknown IP senders are restricted to smaller bandwidths, ensuring that good traffic won't be bottlenecked
Enterprise Throughput
Edge can protect organizations of any size, with throughput of up to millions of email messages per appliance per hour.
Interoperability with All Mail Security Solutions
Secure Mail Edge is interoperable with all existing mail security gateways and mail servers. Anytime capacity or bandwidth issues arise, Secure Mail Edge is the right solution.
