SPAM Blocking

Hexamail's anti-SPAM module eliminates the cost, time and frustration your workers spend on unsolicited E-mail (junk/SPAM) by blocking the majority of SPAM emails before they ever reach the user. Using automatic built in heuristics combined with all the best known techniques such as pattern matching, connection restrictions, ORB, real-time black hole lists and any desired additional administrator controlled rules it offers the most comprehensive toolbox for effective SPAM blocking available. The combination of best of breed SPAM blocking techniques ensure almost all SPAM is stopped in its tracks, while the automatic analysis of outgoing email traffic ensures false positives are minimal. The SPAM filtering software is entirely under your control, with no privacy, security risks and no additional latency introduced into your email system as is the case with many hosted solutions.

A multi-layered spam filtering engine ensures that all types of spam can be effectively blocked. Click anywhere on the diagram for further information about the feature.

Automatically whitelists your regular senders so that no delay is experienced for legitimate communications. Honey Pot Dynamic Adaptive Honeypot. The Honeypot uses spam sent to chosen honeypot addresses to automatically generate adaptive intelligent agents, known as "bees". These identify and block similar spam. This provides realtime protection against new spam types, sender IPs, and specifically image spam. Bayesian Matching Full Bayesian statistical pattern matching providing highly accurate (better than 99%) spam blocking with minimal false-positives (emails incorrectly marked as spam). Selectable pattern matching subcategories allowing bypass of pattern matching for specific types of spam, such as 'Money Making', 'Recruitment', 'Privacy', 'Competitions' etc. Multiple thresholds for pattern matching allowing marking, blocking or automatic deletion of identified spam. Email accepted or deleted from the quarantine is used to further the Bayesian matchign for future email.

Legitimizer

Instead of having to laboriously enforce corporate signatures in every email client in your organization, Hexamail Guard allows you to configure a corporate signature once and have it automatically added to all outgoing email. This helps prevent additional network traffic from redundant signatures on internal emails and ensures you can be confident that every external email will contain the required signature.

Effective Automatically identifies all emails with missing signatures and disclaimers   Reliable Ensure every email has the appropriate company-wide signature/disclaimer/footer text present on leaving your organization   Configurable Configure signatures for each domain served

Automatic fuzzy-detection of existing signatures Automatic insertion of disclaimers and signatures if missing, for HTML and text emails Optional individual signatures for each domain or sub-domain served Use HTML or plain text disclaimers Support for images in signature HTML

Blocker

In some instances it is desirable to prevent emails to or from certain sources or destination companies. For example, perhaps you wish to ensure that no emails from recruitment agencies or ex-employees reach your staff, or prevent all outgoing emails to a competitor. In other situations it is the contents of the email that requires blocking. This can often be outgoing or incoming offensive material, such as pornography, swearing, or other undesirable material. Blocking works in concert with alerting to ensure that emails can be systematically blocked, stored and a nominated party alerted to the incidence of the blocked email.

Protect Protect your company's reputation from unauthorized emails going out to important customers   Secure Secure your company from malicious emails from ex-employees   Alert Alert your company to unauthorized distribution of information to external parties   Block Block dangerous or forbidden attachments   Cleanse Remove dangerous or forbidden attachments

Censoring

Loose talk costs money. A poor choice of words in an outgoing email with or without appropriate disclaimers can be a costly business today. Hexamail Guard allows the censoring or offensive or inappropriate words from all outgoing (and optionally incoming) emails, ensuring that your corporate voice is as clean and virtuous as your reputation.

Safe Ensure all outgoing emails don't offend your customers and partners   Configurable You control the obscenity lists   Flexible Optionally turn off censoring for specific white listed users

Hiding of obscene/forbidden phrases/words/wildcards in the content Hiding of obscene/forbidden phrases/words/wildcards in the subject line Configurable hide string, e.g. ****** or !CENSORED! Configurable white list of users address matches to bypass the censoring Support for emails attached to emails Configurable mark string to optionally alert recipient the email has been censored Option to block obscene emails Option to forward obscene emails to nominated address or the administrator Censored emails stored for later archiving/forwarding/sending or removal Automatic alert when censored store reaches configurable size

Router

Incoming emails can place a huge burden on the nominated recipient. Often several email addresses are provided publicly for information, questions and other telemarketing activities. More often than not emails arrive to all addresses about a diversity of subjects, with little relationship between the email address and the subject matter. For example, a company-wide email address such as mail@yourcompany.com will receive speculative employment queries, requests for information, invitations to tender, unsolicited junk mail, technical support questions etc. etc. Having a single nominated recipient quickly results in the recipient becoming over-burdened with email. Studies show that having multiple recipients results in no one giving the incoming message stream the required attention. The solution? Intelligently route each incoming mail based on the nature of the subject, content, and any attachment to the most suitable respondent recipient. Routing uses rules concerning the subject line, contents, and previous message chain to ensure that the correct recipient is initially identified and then continues the correspondence when required.

Incoming emails are checked against a configurable routing list. Matching emails are then passed through a Bayesian language detection algorithm to determine the language the email is written with close to 100% accuracy. The email is then rerouted to a different address depending on the language it is written in.

Expedite Ensure incoming emails go to the right person immediately   Automate Automatically detect the language of incoming emails and reroute   Schedule Schedule routes depending on the day of week or date

Bounce email by rules/phrases Redirect email to another address Automatic language detection and rerouting for each language Support for Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Hungarian, Icelandic, Italian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Spanish, Swedish, and Turkish Route email by rules Route email by phrases and rules Redirect group email Route based on date Route based on day and time of day

Antivirus

The antivirus module automatically scans all incoming email attachments for virus, worms and trojans. If identified, the email can be marked so that the end user is aware of the infected content, blocked completely so that the end user cannot inadvertently execute a virus or a script, or the infected attachment can be removed and a comment added to the email to inform the user of the action taken. All processed emails can be optionally stored in a quarantine for later review, resend or deletion.

Protect You can expect 100% detection of In-the-Wild viruses and Trojan horses.   Up to date The Antivirus engine automatically updates itself at regular intervals   Alert Alert your administrator or senders to virus in emails   Block Block infected, dangerous, or forbidden attachments   Cleanse Remove infected, dangerous, or forbidden attachments   Safe Quarantine infected emails for later resend or deletion

The updates are incremental, and only new data is downloaded, thus ensuring updates are timely and efficient. Allow alerts to senders of infected emails Configurable response to sender with optional blocking reason

Archiver

Hexamail Archiver module provides is a centralized automatic email archiving solution. Highly efficient full-text indexing and compression algorithms ensure that the most scalable and high performance email archive is generated entirely automatically from all of your email. Hexamail's email archive software leverages state of the art indexing and compression technology to create the most compact and high performance index of email data. Inferior solutions often simply push emails to relational databases or worse, file systems. Such systems suffer from poor scalability, lengthy query/discovery times and extremely high storage requirements: often requiring more space for the archive than the original emails!

Compliance Store 100% of your email in full original MIME format   Discovery Use the live search facilities to allow users to access their old email   Scalable Store many years of email in a single server   Compressed Unique MIME compression algorithms ensure most compact storage   Full Text Full text weighted queries provide relevant retrieval   Secure Enable SSL archive web interface for maximum security

High speed archiving Native high-performance C++ archiving code ensures that emails are archived and indexed in realtime. The unsurpassed performance allows the archive to be used live by end-users to retrieve old, deleted, or difficult to find emails from a web-interface. Massively Scalable Archiving of 100s of millions of emails in a single archiver is possible, allowing many years of emails to be archived on a single server or drive. Low Storage Requirements All email content (MIME) is retained compressed, allowing accurate records to be retained while minimizing storage. Emails are automatically deduplicated. Save costs of storages devices, upgrading servers and backup time and facilities. Fulltext search Full-text Bayesian weighted indexing automatically takes place on archiving. This allows your valuable resource of archived emails to be leveraged for knowledge management, auditing and discovery within your organization. Bayesian analysis leads to highly relevant results to searches. Genuine Archiving Some inferior archiving solutions simply push email content into a relational database. This can be costly in database licenses, slow to retrieve email and extremely demanding of disk space and other machine resources. Be sure to check the licensing implications and costs of such systems before purchase. Hexamail is a complete solution requiring no third party database licenses. Secure Archiving takes place on your servers, within your network. Sensitive emails need never leave your organization, eliminating trust, hacking, or security breach concerns typical of third party service based archive solutions providers. Active Directory Integration Active Directory integration allows automatic import of your users and restriction of their access to only their emails SSL Full secure SSL access to web based knowledge management, discovery and search interfaces. Long term retention Content can be retained for periods matching typical regulatory requirements such as Sarbanes Oxley, European Union ISP Communications Data retention, SEC Rules, NASD, HIPAA and Graham-Leach-Bliley Act. Regulatory Adherence Full MIME storage ensures your chosen email archive solution adheres to all regulations now and in future. Regulations such as Sarbanes-Oxley can be costly to implement, Hexamail Vault eliminates the cost for archiving email in a compliant way. Backup A unique index design allows email content to be backed up and removed from the live server to secure/offsite backup facilities. The fulltext index remembers which emails were in which backup files and allows fulltext search even over email removed from the server. Automated Export Automated export features allow all email matching specific complex criteria to be exported to directories or zip files for litigation or auditing purposes. Fulltext Search Full-text indexing automatically takes place on archiving. This allows your valuable resource of archived emails to be leveraged for knowledge management, auditing and discovery within your organization. Live Access Live-access allows your end-users to access the archive through a web-interface and retrieve email they may have deleted or lost in their inbox. This simultaneously ensure valuable knowledge is never lost from your organization, can be quickly retrieved, and users reduces user inbox storage requirements. Historical Redelivery Redelivery or historical email to selected recipients allows verbatim copies of emails to be retrieved and redelivered in a single click. Report and Audit Generation Users can run their own audit and generate folders or zip files of vital emails for meetings, storage offsite or presentation to management. Configurable Access Administrators can restrict access to discovery features to specific users or areas of discovery
