Anti-Spam

Spam is not only annoying and time wasting for you and your staff, it is also very dangerous. This is because unsolicited emails may contain Trojan viruses or packages to infiltrate your computers, server and network.

• Spam accounts for, on average, 80% of all emails
• Spam can be very dangerous to your computers, server and network as a whole
• Spam emails may contain Trojan viruses or packages that attack your systems and delete your data
• Approximately 5% of all scanned mail contains a virus or other harmful package

Our own managed Anti-Spam solution – MailGate

There are numerous commercial solutions available to what is commonly known as “Spam”, most of which require software to be installed on either servers or workstations and generally require regular updates and maintenance to remain effective. MailGate approaches the problem differently. By providing you with a dedicated server running MailGate, we are able to take out the management overhead of removing Spam email from your network, providing you with an email security solution which does not require daily administration.

In summary:

• MailGate runs on a dedicated server hosted in our Tier 3 Data Centre
• MailGate does not require daily administration
• MailGate focuses on three key areas – Anti-Spam, Anti-Virus and Anti-Phishing
• MailGate scans over 10 million emails a month, identifying around 8,500,000 as spam and finding around 500,000 viruses contained within them
• MailGate checks all emails prior to downloading them to your network, server or computer ensuring that your systems remain protected from possible infection by acting as a barrier between you and the potential threat
• MailGate features a web-based interface with a comprehensive and fully-customisable reporting section
