Advanced Technology
protects your email network
Spam accounts for over 80 percent of all email worldwide. It is a
costly drain on time and resources and continues to threaten network
security as it acts as a host for destructive worms and viruses.
The
McAfee SaaS Email Protection is a fully managed, cloud-based service based
on proprietary technology that blocks over 99 percent of spam, viruses,
worms and harmful content and attachments and eliminates 90 percent of spam
related costs. |
Multi-layered, network perimeter protection
McAfee SaaS identifies and controls spam using a patented method found only in
our Stacked Classification Framework®.
Through a voting algorithm based on a sophisticated form of intelligent
reasoning, the Framework successfully combines over 20 seperate spam, virus,
content, attachment, and email attack filters to protect against the world's
latest threats.
Within the Framework, the different spam filters
seperately assess and vote on the probability that a specific email is spam
- a technique that results in highly-accurate threat protection with
industry-leading low false positive rates. Then, as new spam-detection
techniques and filters are developed, these are quickly and seamlessly
integrated into the flexible Framework. |
The Framework includes:
- IP Reputation Connection Manager
- Deep Content Analysis
- Premium Anti-Spam Multi-Language Filter
- Statistical Filtering
- Sender Policy Framework (SPF) / Sender ID
- Proprietary Heuristics
- Reputation Analysis
- URL Filtering
- Reputation-based RBL filtering
- Domain-level black and white lists
- Recipient deny lists (Address)
- User-level black and white lists
Leading anti-virus engines
|
The McAfee SaaS Threat Center proactively tracks and blocks the latest waves of
worms and virus attacks using sophisticated content behavior analysis,
proprietary scanning and triple anti-virus engines. With McAfee SaaS, we
automatically strip worms and viruses from incoming email before they can
enter your business network. |
- Proprietary worm filtering: McAfee SaaS WormTraq
worm detection technology identifies and intercepts zero-hour
mass-mailing worms before they enter or leave a corporate network.
- Leading signature-based virus scanning engines: McAfee
SaaS leverages advanced, signature-based virus scanning from industry
leaders to detect, quarantine, block and strip viruses and worms before
they can enter and damage your corporate messaging infrastructure.
McAfee SaaS scans for anti-virus updates from these services every five
minutes.
Fraud Protection
|
The McAfee SaaS combination of industry-leading spam-fighting methods is also
designed to protect organizations from phishing and fraud. Using the
same methods to detect spam, phishing emails and fraudulent content are
identified and filtered out of inbound email before they reach the network -
ensuring that they never reach or dupe employees. |
Content and Attachment Filtering
|
Many organizations want a solution to block inbound and outbound
transmission of private or proprietary corporate data, racially and sexually
insensitive material, profanity, or anything considered inappropriate.
McAfee SaaS Content and Attachment Filtering supports this type of specific
keyword filtering, while protecting the business network from
bandwidth-draining effects of dangerously-sized or malicious attachments.
The filtering integrates: |
- Keyword filtering
- Attachment filtering
- Archive and compressed file integrity filtering
- Spam beacon and Web bug detection and blocking
- Multi-level HTML Shield and content protection
Email Attack Protection
|
McAfee SaaS Email Attack Protection provides real-time monitoring and analysis
of incoming messaging traffic, conceals critical messaging gateways and
shields groupware email servers from attack. By pointing your MX
record to our SecureMX, you can conceal your organizations Internet-facing
mail servers and remove the threat of anonymous connections. Malicious
traffic is identified and quarantined at the network perimeter to prevent
Directory Harvest Attacks and block Denial of Service attacks. |
Secure Message Delivery via Transport Layer Security (TLS)
|
The McAfee SaaS Email Protection Service supports SMTP over TLS - accepting,
filtering and delivering encrypted inbound and outbound messages across a
secure tunnel when recipients are TLS-enabled. If a recipient is
unable to receive a TLS encrypted tunnel, McAfee SaaS will deliver the message
via standard SMTP. |
Outbound Message Filtering
|
While the McAfee SaaS Email Protection Service is protecting the network from
malevolent incoming email, the McAfee SaaS Outbound Message Filtering can
protect intellectual property by preventing accidental or intentional
distribution or sensitive or proprietary internal information. Our
outbound message filtering includes: |
- Content Filtering
- Attachment Filtering
- Virus and Worm Scanning
