The IronPort C650 provides the world's most powerful multi-layered approach to email security.

Spam Protection

IronPort provides defense in depth against spam by providing two layers of protection — a preventive layer of reputation filters, followed by reactive filters.

IronPort Reputation Filters  provide an outer layer of defense using IronPort SenderBaseŽ data to perform a real-time email traffic threat assessment and identify suspicious email senders.

IronPort Anti-Spam Filters utilize the industry's most innovative approach to threat detection, based on IronPort's unique Context Adaptive Scanning Engine™ (CASE). IronPort's CASE examines the complete context of a message, including: "What" content the message contains, "How" the message is constructed, "Who" is sending the message, and "Where" the call to action of the message takes you. By combining these elements, IronPort Anti-Spam stops the broadest range of threats with industry-leading accuracy.

The IronPort Spam Quarantine  is a self-service end-user solution, with an easy to use Web or email-based interface. This feature provides end-users with their own safe holding area for spam messages and integrates seamlessly with existing directory and mail systems.

Virus Protection

IronPort Virus Outbreak Filters  identify and quarantine viruses hours before traditional virus signatures are available.

Sophos Anti-Virus  technology provides a fully integrated second layer of virus protection with the highest-performance virus scanning technology in the industry.

Policy Enforcement

Next Generation Compliance Filters enable customers to address HIPAA, GLB, SOX and other regulatory compliance requirements. IronPort's easily deployed solution defends organizations against outbound content compliance violations.

IronPort Email Encryption gives administrators the ability to secure confidential data and comply with partner, customer or regulatory requirements. IronPort PXE™ technology enables simple, secure communication from the gateway to any recipient inbox — while TLS, PGP and S/MIME technology provide security between partner email gateways.

Compliance Quarantine provides delegated access to emails that have been flagged by the content scanning engine.

Email Authentication

DomainKeys Signing digitally signs outgoing messages to establish and protect your identity with email receivers on the the Internet.

IronPort Bounce Verification tags messages with a digital watermark to provide filtering of bounce attacks at the network edge.

Directory Harvest Attack Prevention tracks spammers who send to invalid recipients and blocks attempts to steal email directory information.

Enterprise Management Tools

 

Email Security Manager  is a powerful, graphical management tool that provides fingertip control to manage all email security, including preventive and reactive anti-spam and anti-virus filters, email encryption, and content filtering.

Intuitive GUI enables unprecedented visibility and control. The integrated Web-based user interface enables real-time and historical reporting along with the ability to configure policies, search, and selectively release quarantined messages.

Centralized Management eliminates a single point of failure with superior "peer to peer" architecture and makes managing multi-box installations of IronPort email security appliances simple. The ability to manage configuration at multiple levels allows organizations to manage globally while complying with local policies.

Mail Flow Central allows you to find the status of any message that has traversed your infrastructure. With this centralized reporting tool, administrators and support staff can quickly answer end-user inquiries such as, "What happened to my email?".

Email Security Monitor delivers real-time threat monitoring and reporting. This technology tracks every system connecting to your IronPort appliance to identify Internet threats (such as spam, viruses and denial-of-service attacks), monitor internal user trends and highlight compliance violations.

SNMP Enterprise MIB  facilitates hands-off monitoring and alerting for all system parameters including hardware, security, performance and availablility.

IronPort MTA Platform

AsyncOS, IronPort's proprietary operating system, was built from the ground up to address the requirements of modern email gateways and to position customers for the future of SMTP. The IronPort C650 supports thousands of simultaneous incoming and outgoing connections—ensuring that your email infrastructure is never overwhelmed, even during the largest outbreaks or attacks.
