With the growth in quantity and variety of threats now sent and received by email, successfully filtering it is business critical. Companies do not have the time or resources to deal with the headaches caused by viruses or spam. Put simply, businesses that consider email to be a vital communications tool have the following options;
Do Nothing – No longer a realistic option given the potential cost of being infected by a virus or sued by an employee that has received inappropriate material through their corporate email.
Install Software – This option involves both the separate software and the hardware required for it to operate. This approach demands for software to be purchased, installed, configured and maintained at the highest possible levels. Any failure of the software leaves the customer on their own to resolve any resulting issues or dependent on an overseas support call that is typically costly, time-consuming, and unhelpful.
Purchase an Appliance – Also requiring installation, configuration, and maintenance and, as with software, offering no guarantee of accuracy and reliability.
