Flexible Email Security System to Defend Against Spam and Malicious Content
Email is a Mission Critical Business Application
In today’s networks, email is one of the most predominant business communication methods. Unfortunately, email has also become one of the most
common vehicles for proliferating blended threats comprised of viruses, worms, spyware and spam. These blended attacks can negatively impact
business productivity, cause business downtime and lead to identity theft. In response, companies have leveraged point product security technologies,
such as antispam, to patch against single threaded attacks. In addition, legislation has been introduced to ensure that companies comply with security
best practices for email archiving that enable forensic and legal audits. Email is a mission critical application for all businesses that must be secured.

Email Security Patches are Ineffective
To defend against blended threats, organizations have deployed a costly point product array of antivirus, antispyware and antispam technologies at the
network perimeter. For most organizations this approach has proven to be prohibitive both from a capital and operational cost perspective. Furthermore,
requirements for email archiving and routing further compound the proliferation of email point product technologies. Deploying an excessive amount of
email security and routing infrastructure is an ineffective method to protect against blended threats and to comply with email archiving guidelines.
