How would you separate a good exchange spam filter from rest of the pack, a pack that contains hundreds upon hundreds of different solutions and architectures? Look for a solution that is geared toward the experienced system administrator while also providing office users the power needed to work seamlessly in a risk free e-mail environment.
Well, Vircom’s modusGate has the ability to do both, especially in a Windows architecture environment. modusGate is able to coexist with Microsoft Exchange, Domino, SmarterMail etc. as well as with a number of other email clients software.
In terms of email protection, modusGate offers protocol level, which is able to perform a number of industry standard and basic network verification such as, but not limited to reverse DNS checking, Sender Reputation Systems, IP connection level blocking, and scan attack blocking. modusGate also comes with its own built in anti-virus software for exchange to scan and quarantine any emails that may contain malicious virus or attachments. The best part about the virus scanning is that modusGate is able to support a single anti-virus engine or dual anti-virus engine which we have all come to love, the Norman anti-virus and McAfee anti-virus software’s.
The single most important aspect of the modusGate spam scanning engine is that it is not derived from an open source code as many other exchange spam filter engines are. modusGate SCA engine is proprietary owned and has been on the market for over 10 years in the IT industry. With spam updates made available multiple times a day, all the while providing users the ability to create and manage their own trusted and blocked senders list, modusGate is also a friendly application for any end user. By logging into a web based quarantine login, end users are able to create and manipulate their trusted/blocked sender list, view their quarantined items as far back as 15 days or more, release unnecessarily quarantined messages, and manually alter spam and phishing level scans to protect Microsoft Exchange servers.
If using a web based site is not your forte then quarantine reports can be e-mailed to end users once a day or even multiple times a day. From these reports users are able to release and trust email addresses with having to login to a web based site. Users will find the simplicity and easy to use web quarantine and quarantine reports a seamless task in their overloaded every day work environment. Below are some images of what end users can expect to encounter with our modusGate product.
