The MIMEsweeper for SMTP 5.0 advantage

MIMEsweeper invented the content security marketplace ten years ago. With version 5.0 of their flagship product, they’ve built on the best content security engine in the marketplace and raised the bar even higher.

MIMEsweeper for SMTP 5.0 leads where it matters:

• Breadth – Stop spam, viruses, trojans, confidential leaks, hatemail, inappropriate content and malicious code. And do it all from a single management console.
• Depth – The MIMEsweeper engine ‘explodes’ all email content to detect deeply embedded problems and content that simple filters always miss. And because it recognises all the common and lots of the not-so-common data types, it stops more threats – even when they’re hidden in zipped up attachments.
• Power – With best-of-breed anti-spam built in; plus links to as many anti-virus tools as you like, for layered protection. All in a high-performance solution that handles millions of emails with ease.
• Granularity – Content security is all about creating and enforcing policy. MIMEsweeper offers the most granular policy management in the industry, with policy templates and wizards to make it easy to design, deploy and update.
• Control – No solution does more with so little management time and resource. Configure and manage all email gateways from a central console. Receive automatic updates and patches from the industry-leading ThreatLab service. And generate comprehensive reports on all aspects of your email use.

What makes MIMEsweeper for SMTP enterprise class?

MIMEsweeper for SMTP 5.0 is the first enterprise-class content security solution because it’s the first to address all email threats in a single, scalable and manageable solution.

Enterprise-class means much more than best-of-breed point solutions. It means:

• Scalability – from 50 users to 100,000+ with no performance loss.
• Resilience – single or multi-server configuration for flexibility and protection.
• High-performance – up to 3.5 million emails per day with no performance loss; quarantines are held within the system rather than clogging up mail servers.
• Central management – manage all servers and gateways from a single, web-based management console.
• Centralised reporting – generate comprehensive reports covering any or all gateways, from the same, single point.
• Unbeatable detection – scan every byte of every document on the move in and out of your enterprise.
• Field-proven – with over 15,000 customers and 20 million protected users worldwide.

A Service-Oriented Architecture
MIMEsweeper for SMTP 5.0 represents a new generation of content security. Instead of a monolithic architecture, with all functions ‘welded’ together in a single box, version 5.0 is built on a service-oriented architecture that separates all key functions for maximum flexibility, configurability and scalability.

The Mail Engine, Policy Server, Web Server, Database Server and Audit Server can all exist on a single machine or in a distributed configuration for scalability and performance.

Can scale up to an 8-machine configuration for up to 100,000 users. MIMEsweeper SMTP 5.0 also scales down to 50 users and one machine.

What makes MIMEsweeper so easy to use?

Point solutions create inefficient, inconsistent management and generate low-value, piecemeal reports. MIMEsweeper for SMTP 5.0 brings the management and reporting of all email activity, enterprise-wide, into a single, web-based console, including:

• Message Center - a unified view of all quarantine areas and message directories, across multiple servers. Also allows for Pre-review of important documents.
• Report Center - for access to over 20 pre-defined reports and a powerful wizard to create new ones.
• Systems Center – to control the services running on each host and view the status of messages.
• Security Center – to define roles and responsibilities for Administrators, Help-Desk Operators, Personnel Managers, Compliance Officers etc.
• System Health – a snapshot of all the systems running in the configuration, including message flow, counts of messages in quarantine and passing
  through the system, and key trend information.

MIMEsweeper's unique approach to system management lets IT managers delegate responsibilities – such as server monitoring, access to particular quarantine areas and reporting – to the most appropriate administrator or department. This spreads out the workload and speeds the processing of blocked emails.
