CoreSight - leading Australian security

The gateway is the first line of defence for your organisation's network. By stopping viruses, spam and content security threats at the network edge and within internal email systems, you can reduce the risk and impact of outbreaks, spikes in email traffic, and the loss of confidential information.

Sophos PureMessage provides a secure solution at the email gateway, uniquely integrating anti-virus, anti-spam and policy enforcement capabilities. Based on a scalable architecture, PureMessage includes innovative detection techniques that deliver proactive, sustained protection.

Sophos PureMessage is the industry leader in corporate spam management. Why?

• Leading anti-spam protection - PureMessage's industry-leading anti-spam technology safely identifies up to 98% of spam, resulting in inboxes free of unsolicited bulk emails. Flexible configuration options allow businesses to define their spam identification and handling policies uniquely (e.g. delete, quarantine, tag and pass).
• Threat reduction - By blocking specific file types, subject lines, executables and mass-mailing emails, threat reduction technology protects against new, unknown worms.
• Central administration - A graphical administrative interface provides flexible control over mail filtering.
• End-user control - End users can review their personal spam quarantine.
• Automatic updates - Anti-virus and anti-spam updates are automatically delivered and seamlessly deployed as new threats arise.
