Antispam engine that you don’t have to train or manage

ExchangeDefender is a true cloud based solution that doesn’t require local software installation, licensing, power or air conditioning as most appliances and software require. Because ExchangeDefender protects you and thousands of other users you do not have to train or manage it, ExchangeDefender is monitored 24/7/365 and delivered as a subscription service.

Six different commercial antivirus vendors scanning each email

Not all antivirus vendors are the same: some are faster while some have better and more reliable definition sets. Each attachment passing through our system is scanned by every antivirus engine allowing us to provide the most current and reliable virus results.

Variety of convenient and secure ways to access blocked SPAM

ExchangeDefender allows you to retrieve your SPAM messages through the realtime web interface. We also provide up to two daily SPAM digest reports delivered straight to your Inbox. If you live in Outlook we also have an addin that allows you to manage ExchangeDefender directly through Outlook. For more realtime alerts we also offer a Windows Desktop gadget that alerts you every hour when SPAM is waiting for review.

Daily and intraday SPAM reports delivered via email

ExchangeDefender offers daily and intraday SPAM digest reports that contain a list of all blocked SPAM messages. You can conveniently release messages directly from this email and receive them a few moments later.

Business Continuity with LiveArchive

Has your mail server ever gone down? Internet connection interruptions? Trying to work from home but cannot reach the office server? ExchangeDefender LiveArchive provides a fault tolerant business continuity solution powered by Microsoft Exchange 2007. Through this convenient and secure webmail application you are already familiar you can access up to a year of your sent and received messages from a server that is always on and always available.

Simple and Secure Web Sharing & Collaboration

ExchangeDefender Web Sharing provides a secure and reliable way for users to exchange large attachments and distribute files to their customers. Clients can upload their files, provide email addresses of the recipients and even be notified when the files are downloaded. Because files are stored on a remote, high-bandwidth server the transfers are quick and reliable and do not affect your corporate Internet connection.

Policy based Encryption

Enforce corporate security by defining which traffic should be automatically encrypted regardless of content. Your users can also selectively encrypt messages on demand by putting [ENCRYPT] in the subject. Encrypted mail requires no software or private keys on the recipients computer, just a web browser.

Web filtering protects your users from dangerous sites

Agent-based web filtering offers you 80 categories of sites that you can selectively prohibit your users from accessing. Because each user has their own private policy, some users can be granted access to web sites that others are not (ex: HR staff can be granted access to monster.com while other staff is prohibited). Web filtering automatically blocks dangerous sites known for virus distribution.

Enforce your Internet use policy and address violations

Each violation is reported to the centralized server, giving you an overview of all the sites that were visited in strict violation of the company Internet use policy. This data is convenient for reviews or can indicate serious problems with the computer that the client is accessing the Internet from.

Multiple Data Centers, Network Feeds and Service Redundancy

ExchangeDefender is a massively scalable and redundant service provided from over 40 data centers worldwide. Each data center has individual servers in locked cabinets with network and power feeds from multiple providers. Each data center is capable of sustaining a failure and even in a complete outage other data centers assume the load of processing SPAM and viruses. Each ExchangeDefender server is powered by enterprise equipment from Dell and Sun.
