Press Release Summary: The AntiVirus, AntiSpam and Content Security solution
provider MicroWorld Technologies has just released MailScan 5.3, the comprehensive
security
software for Mail Servers.
Press Release Body: The new versions are packed with a host of proactive
technologies and advanced algorithms in various aspects of email security. They are
compatible with Windows Vista and Windows 64 bit platforms. Web registration of the
product is enabled in all of them.
In MailScan
for SMTP and Exchange Server 2007, MicroWorld introduces SMTP
Transparent Proxy. This will enable a Transport Layer Security based communication
between Hub Transport Server and Edge Transport Server. TLS is capable of
authenticating both the Client and the Server in order to create an encrypted
connection between the two.
Graylisting is a powerful spam
control tool that the new versions of MailScan for
SMTP and Exchange Server incorporate in them. It is a method of blocking spam by
temporarily rejecting mails coming from unknown senders. If the mail is legitimate,
the originating server in most cases will re-attempt to send it, which will then be
accepted. However it\'s observed that most spamming servers do not try to send the
mail over in case of a first time rejection.
The software now provides POP3
authentication for accessing quarantined mails.
Considering the fact that not all Enterprises will have LDAP configured, this can
provide them a means to authenticate valid users and restrict unauthorized access to
quarantined mails.
NILP is another powerful tool used by MailScan in Spam
and Phishing Control. It is a
revolutionary technology from MicroWorld that works on the principles of Artificial
Intelligence, which employs an adaptive mechanism in Spam and Phishing Control. This
technology can analyze each email according to the nature of the business of an
enterprise as well as the Behavioral Patterns of the user and can take an informed
decision there after.
Speaking on the occasion of the launch, Govind Rammurthy, CEO of MicroWorld
explained how the product counters the deluge of unwanted mails. He said, \"We use a
multilayered mechanism
in Spam Control. Several technologies like Real-time Black
List, SURBL, General Header Tests, MX/A DNS Record Verification, X-Spam Rules Check,
Non Intrusive Learning Patterns and Gray Listing are used in the process so that we
deliver the best accuracy in filtering mails\".
On the AntiVirus
technology used in MailScan, Govind said, \"All sorts of malicious
programs like Virus, Worm, Trojan, Backdoor, Rootkit, Bot, and Phishing Trojans are
caught right at the Mail Gateway. Besides our earliest updating AntiVirus system
that provides immediate vaccines against new and emerging threats, we also use an
advanced Intention Analysis of incoming objects to stop previously unknown threats\".
