IRONPORT EMAIL SECURITY APPLIANCES

• Spam protection: Email and Web reputation filtering technology is combined with industry-leading IronPort Anti-Spam™.

• Virus defense: IronPort Virus Outbreak Filters™ are paired with fully-integrated traditional anti-virus technology from Sophos and McAfee.

• Secure messaging: Policy enforcement, content filtering and encryption technology fulfills compliance and regulatory requirements.

IRONPORT WEB SECURITY APPLIANCES

• The industry’s fastest Web proxy, along with integrated caching and content acceleration capabilities.

• Scanning across all ports at wire speed as well as messages to alert customers about compromised hosts within their network and “phone-home” activity.

• URL filtering: URL categorization data is augmented with reputation data from IronPort’s SenderBase.

malicious content at the gateway.
