CipherTrust has announced CipherTrust Edge 2.1, an enhanced version of its network perimeter security appliance.
Current global e-mail volume is at 50 billion messages per day. It is expected to rise to 100 billion messages per day by 2008 and CipherTrust Research has found that message volume has increased 25 percent over the past six months. With this substantial increase in message volume comes a corresponding rise in the threats to corporate e-mail systems.
The enhanced CipherTrust Edge appliance decreases network bandwidth requirements, is interoperable with any mail server or e-mail security product, and provides protection against zombies and virus outbreaks. Enhancements include:
- Improved performance
- Increased connection blocking
- Perimeter anti-virus protection
- Enhanced administration
“Early success selling our CipherTrust Edge product shows the concept is right on the mark; enterprises want a product that will conserve IT resources by dropping obviously unwanted mail traffic,” said Dr. Paul Judge, Chief Technology Officer at CipherTrust. “CipherTrust Edge is the only perimeter security device on the market to include sophisticated traffic shaping functionality to block bad messages. When coupled with a CipherTrust IronMail appliance at the gateway, companies can protect their networks from malicious threats and conserve server processing capacity and bandwidth.”
