Real-Time Communicationsand Real-World Threats: Driving the Need for Real-Time Protection
While instant connections are essential for your business to keep pace, they also open doors to cybercriminals who are continually looking for new ways to enter your network. In this real-time environment, attackers can spread malware, hijack systems, and steal data—in the blink of an eye. Blended, multi-staged, and serial email attacks have grown more deceptive, often luring victims to visit fraudulent sites or execute malicious code. Similar sophisticated attacks are targeting instant messaging and collaboration systems where activities like file sharing, chat, and blog posting elevate your risk. Take a closer look at today’s deceptive threats targeting communication and collaboration systems and the security you need to stop them.
The Total Cost of Ownership For Mail Server Security
Today, anywhere from 87% to 95% of all email is spam and approximately one out of every 160 emails contains a virus. As a result, robust anti-spam, antivirus and other malware defenses are absolutely critical to the health of any organization’s email infrastructure. These defenses must be continually updated, they must be easy to use and – given that they are a necessary component of any organization’s defense system – they should cost as little as possible to deploy and manage. This report discusses a research program comparing four leading mail server security solutions designed for Microsoft Exchange environments.
Malware Today and Mail Server Security
Enterprise security professionals understand that the motivation behind malware has shifted from creating chaos to making money. Cybercriminals reap financial gain by stealing and reselling valuable information: credit card numbers, personal identities, intellectual property. Others propagate Trojans to take control of inadequately protected computers and servers, using them for future malicious endeavors or renting them to others for spam blasts, Denial of Service (DoS) attacks, malware campaigns, or targeted attacks. This paper will provide you with practical advice for how you can improve your enterprise’s defenses, especially at the mail server.
