Email Security Solutions for Small to Medium Businesses
Email protection nowadays is a must! There are many threats facing businesses that use email to help run their business efficiently. The two main issues are Spam and Viruses sent attached to emails which are easily passed on to others.
But there is an easy solution!
How can you be certain your email is protected from spam?
Email is arguably the prime communication channel for business, so keeping email secure and functioning has assumed the highest priority. Every day, organizations face potential communications, operations, and intellectual property disruption from spam and other email-borne threats.
The sophistication of email threats has evolved, going beyond just viruses and spam. Virus, spam and spyware writers are now taking advantage of each other’s methods. As a result, different types of attack have started to merge and pose severe threats to your organization, leading to a significant increase in email-related costs. Techniques such as image spam use up considerable processing and storage, while spam is also being used to propagate fraudulent content and steal personal information.
The MessageLabs Email Anti-Spam Service represents a significant step forward in the ongoing battle against unwanted email from spammers and other perpetrators. It demonstrates how MessageLabs continues to invest in and deploy innovative techniques that free your organization from the time-wasting, network-burdening, efficiency-eroding effects of dealing with unsolicited email, from both known and unknown sources.
In particular, as part of our industry-leading Skeptic™ Technologies, MessageLabs has increased the identification and rejection of known unwanted email through the deployment of Traffic Management and Connection Management capabilities. Traffic Management slows down spam at the TCP/IP layer, while Connection Management uses heuristics to block unsolicited email at the connection layer and prevents attacks at the user management layer.
Spam defenses – the MessageLabs multi-layered solution
The MessageLabs Email Anti-Spam Service dramatically cuts the amount of unsolicited messages reaching your organization. This eliminates the loss of employee productivity associated with reading and deleting spam and substantially reduces the processing, storage and bandwidth costs associated with these unsolicited emails.
Our network security infrastructure is second to none
At the perimeter of our infrastructure, innovative Traffic and Connection Management capabilities identify, slow down and reject known unwanted email. To identify unknown and new spam, the service uses Skeptic™ predictive technology, which incorporates thousands of heuristics rules, Bayesian learning, smart signatures, fuzzy fingerprinting and dynamic header analysis.
Skeptic™ learns from each message it sees, evolving and updating in real time to actively protect against the latest spam techniques while providing near-perfect accuracy to virtually eliminate false positives.
Clients have a range of completely customizable handling options at their disposal for messages identified as spam at the various layers of the service. Intuitive administrator and end-user spam quarantine tools provide for a flexible and productive anti-spam experience.
MessageLabs scans well over 1.5 billion emails per week, and the intelligence gathered from this unique window on the world’s email traffic provides clients with unrivalled protection from emerging threats.
