Designed for mail servers running on Windows or UNIX based platforms, BitDefender Security for Mail Servers combines advanced antivirus technology's with content and antispam filters to provide safe mail traffic for companies and Service Providers.

BitDefender Security for Mail Servers offers dedicated agents for several of the most popular mail transfer agents (Sendmail, Courier, qmail and CommuniGate Pro). Due to its SMTP proxy agent, the product can be used with other MTAs (such as Exim or Dmail) as well, or when the filtering process is done separately from the running Mail Server. The SMTP proxy agent also gives access to features such as connection count limiting, trusted networks and relay domain limitations. BitDefender Security for Mail Servers uses anti-phishing technology to detect illegal attempts to copy the "look and feel" of authentic messages, as well as the disguises and the forgeries used to persuade the user to send confidential data to a particular recipient.

Key features:

  • Fast and easy deployment
  • Easy integration with your current mail services
  • Compatible with most major mail platforms
  • Proactive heuristic protection against zero-day threats
  • Antivirus, antispyware and antiphishing protection
  • Multiple layers of antispam filtering
  • Content and attachment filtering
  • Intuitive program interface

E-mail Protection against Malware
  • Fights e-mail-borne malware by filtering and blocking messages that carry dangerous active codes
  • Offers anti-phishing protection by proactively detecting forged messages intended to trick their recipient into disclosing confidential data
  • Can act* as a multiple mail server proxy through inter¬faces capable of filtering the traffic routed to different mail servers
  • The Directory Harvesting filter* protects against attempts to steal valid mail addresses from the mail server
  • Provides** the possibility of separately handling riskware (applications that pose a potential threat, but which certain user groups might still need)

Compatibility
  • Comes with an SMTP proxy agent which:
  • allows using the solution with generic e-mail platforms such as Windows SMTP Mail Servers, Exim**, Dmail**
  • offers access to features such as connection count limiting, trusted networks and relay domain limitations
  • Includes** dedicated agents for automatic integration with several of the most popular mail transfer agents such as Sendmail (milter), Postfix, Courier, qmail and CommuniGate Pro
  • Fully complies** with FHS (Filesystem Hierarchy Standard), operating in a completely non- intrusive manner
  • Ensures compatibility with all major Unix-based platforms due to its rpm, deb and generic .tar.run packages

Increased Business Productivity
Reduces mail traffic and saves network resources due to its extensive antimalware protection capabilities
Through its optimized scanning process, increases mail delivery speed and reduces server workload
Improves the IT manager’s productivity and prevents the loss of confidential information by filtering all mail passing through the mail server based on:
  • content (subject line, body**, sender, recipient) and attachment
  • the criteria defined for the existing user groups
Provides a highly efficient multi-layered antispam protection system which:
  • reduces mail traffic by accurately classifying messages as spam, phishing or legitimate
blocks unsolicited mail based on several filters, among which:
  • connection filters such as the Allow/Deny IP List* and Sender Black List*
  • the Bayesian Filter, which you can train to learn the specifics of the spam mail received by your server
  • the Real-time Blackhole List (RBL) filter, which identifies spam based on mail servers’ reputation as spam senders
Allows configuring antispam filter sensitivity by set¬ting very demanding or relaxed thresholds for each user group
Matches* mail to specific IP addresses so that messages with spoofed headers no longer fool the White List filter.
Provides WBL (White List/ Blacklist) support, allowing you to set a list of trusted and untrusted addresses based on which to respectively “always accept” or “always re¬ject” mail

Increased Usability
  • Allows you to filter mail traffic more flexibly, leveraging antivirus, antispam, content and attachment filtering policies for different groups or users
  • Generates detailed statistics and reports related to the solution’s activity
  • Sends customizable mail notifications about its activity
  • Allows you to remotely configure mail protection through its management tools
  • A dedicated command line interface** allows performing post-install configuration and administration tasks
  • Can isolate dangerous or restricted mail in a quarantine zone to be dealt with later
  • The quarantine area is searchable** based upon regular expressions, sender, recipient, date and cause for quarantine
  • Allows** performing management actions via SNMP by means of its SNMP Daemon Plug-in
  • Can** send virus and administration alerts to three different hosts, through the SNMP Logger plug-in


Centralized Management Support
  • BitDefender Management Server allows centralized management for most BitDefender business solutions installed on network computers, including BitDefender Security for Mail Servers (only UNIX platforms are supported for centralized management). This type of integration allows you to use the Management Server console to get centralized access to:
  • Configuration settings for BitDefender Security for Mail Servers
  • Critical event information such as update-related events, configuration warnings, license expiration
  • Easy-to-interpret statistics and reports based on the information received from BitDefender Security for Mail Servers
