F-Secure today announced the availability of its next-generation
messaging security solutions, F-Secure Messaging Security Gateway
appliance which blocks spam and viruses alreade at the gateway
level. F-Secure Messaging Security Gateway version 4 comes with
improved usability, mail queue management and support for more
complex email infrastructures.
While the Messaging Security Gateway is available in three
different physical hardware configurations, the award-winning
hardware appliance is now also available utilizing VMware’s
virtualization platform. All four versions including the
virtual appliance feature the same anti-spam, anti-virus and
anti-phishing features as well as an optional zero-hour protection
against fast-spreading email viruses.
The new optional Zero-Hour Antivirus Module is an important
addition to Gateway appliance to protect enterprises against
fast-spreading viruses. During the critical first hours of a new
virus outbreak before traditional anti-virus signatures have been
updated, the Module offers an effective first line of defence.
"Many organizations are overloaded by email-borne spam and
viruses. As the number increases, so too does the importance of
heightened spam and virus detection rates as well as the ease by
which mail filtering capacity can be increased",says Ari Alakiuttu,
Vice President of Product Marketing. "I believe that the new
additions to the F-Secure Messaging Security product line will
ensure increased email productivity and peace of mind."
