Email Security Appliance

PineApp Mail-SeCure is a leading email security appliance that protects your organization from both targeted and non-targeted email-related threats, such as Viruses, new age Virus Outbreaks, Worms and Trojan-horses.

 

Mail-SeCure, a complete email perimeter security solution, blocks most threats prior to receiving the content of the message.

The complexity and volume of email sent by spammers and hackers is continuously on the rise. This, together with the specific targeting of businesses through Mail Bombing, DoES, Backscatter and other exploitations, requires ever-increasing resources to counter these threats. PineApp's perimeter led email security solution has the ability to block unwanted traffic including Viruses, Spam and Phishing, regardless of their content, at the IP level and email envelope level. This frees up bandwidth and resources for the content analysis of the remaining emails by the Anti-Virus and Anti-Spam filters.

Over 90% of Spam and Viruses are sent through Zombie computers. Zombie computers are computers or servers that have been involuntarily compromised by a Virus or Trojan-horse and are used to send out Spam. Usually, the owners of these computers are unaware that their computers have been compromised.

 

PineApp's unique ZDS™ provides detection and prevention of such threats at the IP and envelope level. ZDS™ also protects the organization's reputation by blocking traffic emerging from internal zombie-converted computers.

Mail-SeCure incorporates 5 Anti-Virus engines in order to provide full protection against known and unknown security threats. PineApp's embedded Zero-Hour™ technology identifies and blocks new-age Virus outbreaks within minutes and is supported by four additional Anti-Virus engines; Mail-SeCure's unique heuristic worm detection engine, coupled with F-Secure™'s award-winning Anti-Virus scanning engines.

Fighting spammers has become a challenge, as spammers are constantly improving their technologies in order to bypass Anti-Spam systems. The latest breeds are known as “Image-based Spam” and “PDF-based Spam”. PineApp's unique non-OCR technology has the ability to detect image-based Spam based on a single message (using no reference at all). In total, Mail-SeCure incorporates eleven-layers of Anti-Spam technologies (such as IP Reputation and Recurrent Pattern Detection™), in order to provide a high detection ratio of 98.5% with a false positive ratio close to zero.

With ever-increasing legislation and regulations, the use of email needs to be managed in order to protect businesses and their employees from both civil and criminal prosecutions, both of which are on rise, as email becomes the de-facto means of communication. PineApp's Three-tier policy manager enables the business to regulate the flow of both inbound and outbound email, with a set of rules that can be defined for the entire organization, a specific department or group of users, or for the individual user. User and group management can be manually configured, or simply achieved by interconnecting to any existing directory service using the LDAP protocol.

Mail-SeCure has an integrated load balancing system. Mail-SeCure's scalable solution enables businesses to grow and optimize their scanning power by stacking two or more Mail-SeCure appliances, adding additional systems rather than replacing existing ones.

Non-delivery mail notifications from an unknown source caused by a Virus, Phishing or Spam, known as "Backscatter", may lead to flooding of the organization's mail systems. Additionally, Backscatter causes IT overhead and misuse of employee time. Mail-SeCure is the only product that has a Backscatter detection mechanism, which prevents mail classified as Backscatter from entering the network.

Inappropriate content such as pornography has become a major concern as it leads to exposure to improper content and to sexual harassment. Mail-SeCure incorporates a new-generation Inappropriate Content Control (ICC) package. The ICC package includes IWF (Internet Watch Foundation) database lookup and an Image-SeCure engine.

Mail-SeCure has an optional mail server module in which mailboxes can be created and managed using a friendly, simple interface. The web-access feature enables all users to read their mail from anywhere in the world. Mail-SeCure can currently be found in 43 different interface languages.
