With the rapidly increasing threat of Internet-borne viruses and malware, organizations of all sizes are searching for highly effective and cost-efficient Web and email security solutions that are both built on next-generation security technology and are easy-to-deploy and manage. To meet this growing demand, Sunbelt Software is extending its security portfolio with the addition of two new products.

VIPRE Email Security for Gateway VIPRE Email Security for Gateway provides a best-in-class email security appliance that delivers carrier-grade reliability to help administrators build a secure and scalable messaging infrastructure with better price and performance than comparable product offerings on the market today.

VIPRE Gateway offers powerful inbound and outbound protection from spam, viruses, and malicious attachments, built-in disclaimers, and comprehensive rules-based email management. Leveraging some of the industry’s best antispam and antivirus engines on the market today, VIPRE Gateway combines the critical email security elements of spam and virus protection, corporate policy and compliance, email privacy, and secure email gateway capabilities into a robust, comprehensive, and easy-to-manage platform.

Best-of-breed antispam engine from CloudMark

Reliable, hardware and nationwide on-site support

Attachment Filtering

Disclaimers

Admin-level and User-level Quarantine Management

VIPRE Web Filter Built on the best-of-breed VIPRE anti-malware protection engine, VIPRE Web Filter is a fast, powerful and affordable threat management solution that will offer easy-to-use and intelligent integrated content filtering, application blocking, and malware protection. VIPRE Web Filter is designed to block potentially dangerous websites and browser exploits through content filtering and application blocking to enable businesses of all sizes to enforce Internet usage policies in order to prevent Internet misuse and protect users from undesirable websites and online threats.

VIPRE Web Filter will be available in a variety of form factors; as a pre-built, hardware appliance; a self-install software solution, or a VMWare virtual appliance.
