F-Secure introduces advanced messaging security appliance
Appliance targetted for Small- and Medium-sized Enterprises
The new F-Secure Messaging Security Gateway delivers the industry's most complete and effective security for e-mail. It combines a robust, enterprise-class messaging platform with perimeter security, antispam, antivirus, secure messaging and outbound content security capabilities in an easy-to-deploy, hardened appliance.
The F-Secure Messaging Security Gateway X-Series appliance uses technology from Proofpoint, Inc., the leader in large-enterprise messaging security solutions. Together, F-Secure’s Anti-Virus and Proofpoint's MLX machine learning technology provide the industry's best protection against any e-mail borne threats.
The X-Series appliance offers small and medium sized enterprises all the right tools for complete messaging security:
Perimeter security: The integrated Email Firewall provides complete perimeter security, defending against denial-of-service, directory harvest and other forms of network-based attacks. The unique machine learning and SMTP traffic control features constantly monitor connections at the IP address level, looking for malicious activity. Malicious connections are automatically blocked or throttled based on fully customizable mail traffic policies—k eeping networks and email users safe while preserving valuable network bandwidth.
Virus protection: F-Secure’s award winning anti-virus technology provides the industry’s most accurate protection against viruses. In antivirus, where speed is of utmost importance, F-Secure maintains record response times and sets the pace of development. Spam detection: Unrivalled protection from spam and phishing attacks is ensured by the advanced machine learning technology, which analyzes more than 200,000 structural and content attributes in every message to accurately identify unwanted email.
Email policy enforcement: The included Content Compliance module makes it easy for administrators to define and enforce email acceptable use policies. Secure messaging support: The X-Series appliance supports digital certificates and enables gateway-to-gateway secure transfer and receipt of email using the Transport Layer Security (TLS) standard. The appliance also supports optional authentication of senders and receivers via TLS.
A platform that maintains itself: The X-Series appliance provides a secure runtime environment, fine-tuned for messaging applications. The industry standard MTA makes the product more reliable than other appliances and the product maintains itself as software and firmware components are automatically kept up-to-date.
Ease to install and use: The X-Series features a small-enterprise optimized administration interface and “plug and play” setup wizards that enable installation in just minutes and minimize ongoing maintenance requirements.
