Solutions for Gateway Protection
The gateway is the first line of defense against inbound email threats, and the key leverage point to deliver ROI against the installed email platform.
It's a simple formula; the sooner in the mail stream an organization eliminates unwanted messages, the greater the ROI. Spam and virus engines, content filtering, mailstore processing and storage all consume valuable bandwidth and resources. If an organization can eliminate as much as 80% of unwanted messages at the gateway, the cost savings can be tremendous.
The following key features for Gateway Protection are available with Sentrion appliances and Sendmail software.
