BitDefender®, provider of antivirus software and data security solutions, announced the twin release of the Beta versions of its Windows Mail Server Products: BitDefender Security for Exchange and BitDefender Security for Mail Servers (Windows). These products offer complete protection from e-mail-borne threats, including viruses, spyware, spam, phishing and inappropriate content, providing a completely clean mail server environment.
BitDefender Security for Exchange now protects Exchange Servers 2003, 2000 and 5.5 in one product, which makes it a comprehensive and handy management tool. BitDefender Security for Mail Servers (Windows) works on most of the existing e-mail platforms so that compatibility issues are practically impossible. In addition to that, large organizations needing to centrally administer security policies will now benefit from the fact that the new server products can be remotely managed using BitDefender Enterprise Manager.
“The new generation of BitDefender Security for Exchange and BitDefender Security for Mail Servers (Windows) brings many feature enhancements and new functionalities to the previous versions to help manage the influx of spam and malware directed at the messaging environment,”said Clara Cismaru, BitDefender Product Manager. “A multi-layered antispam approach has been taken to stop spam as early as possible and to protect against attacks such as directory harvesting. As the number of content-security threats is continuously growing, BitDefender has added antispyware support as well as content and attachment filtering to prevent the overloading of the messaging environment and the theft of confidential and valuable data.” User and Group Policies give the new generation of products more flexibility and the ease of use of its interface keeps administration workloads and costs at a very low level. By launching these beta programs and challenging the general public to put our newest products to the most rigorous tests, BitDefender offers end products capable of the highest performance. These beta campaigns also prove BitDefender’s willingness to listen to and address the security needs of its customers.
BitDefender Security for Exchange works with Microsoft Exchange Server 2003, 2000 and 5.5.
New features include:
• Antispam Enhancements - a layered approach (scans at different levels), Exchange SCL integration, RBL, Bayesian Filter, BitDefender Certified Antispam Engines
