Data Unit provides a combination of cloud based and site based Mail Defense Solutions to prevent the corruption of email services from affecting corporate resources. Messages are first filtered in the cloud prior and then reaches the second layer of filtering at the corporate network to keep bandwidth and inboxes clean for corporate users. The solution is easy to implement, requiring no upfront knowledge and is easy to manage. Data unit's Mail Defense Solution provides:

Spam Filtering: Spam comprises over 80% of all email. The flood of unwanted messages can be enough to consume Internet circuits and even cause Denial of Service attacks. Data Unit's solution accurately eliminates 99% of spam, freeing up bandwidth and allowing productive use of e-mail services.

Anti-Virus: E-mail remains the most common distribution method for viruses. By evaluating all messages with 3 virus engines, Data Unit eliminates the risk of users opening infected attachments. Each virus engine is updated in real-time as new signatures are added ensuring immediate protection against the latest threats.

Content Filtering: Keeping inappropriate content from entering or exiting a company ensures employees and partners are not exposed to hostile or objectionable material through corporate email, reducing the risk of lawsuits.

Global or per user Quarantine: Quarantine reports can be emailed to end-users allowing the recipient to release or reject filtered messages. Each user may release individual messages, approve senders, and manage their inbox, dramatically reducing the burden placed on IT.

Business Continuity: Data Unit provides temporary e-mail access and storage for businesses that cannot afford to lose e-mail during outages. During an outage of the mailserver(s), all inbound mail continues to be stored at the onsite appliance.  Once connectivity has been restored, all e-mail activity is synchronized with your primary system.

Message Archiving: Data Unit Message Archiving solution automatically captures and retains all inbound, outbound, and internal emails including attachments for 1, 3, 5, or 7 years.  Users can retrieve stored messages in seconds using enhanced search capabilities.

Data Unit e-mail defense solution removes the burden of e-mail filtering from corporate resources. No more mail servers being throttled under the weight of a spam-flood or virus outbreak. These issues not only prevent external mail from reaching the company, but prevent internal mail from flowing as well. Filtering appliances alone may keep internal mail servers alive, but spam floods and viruses can quickly consume Internet circuits, blocking external communications of any kind. Data Unit's  solution removes those risks, assuring corporate mail continues to flow, and that e-mail does not become a risk to other applications.
