Increase Reliability - Decrease SPAM and Viruses - BC

print this article 
 

Email is an essential service for any organization, and professionally managed email improves organizational workflow and customer satisfaction. A missed email could mean a lost opportunity or a public-relations problem, two things every organization would like to avoid. Yet despite their importance, email servers have long suffered from excessive SPAM, security concerns, and viruses. The solution is a professionally managed email system from Transparen Corporation, which will increase email reliability, decrease spam, and protect against viruses.

SPAM, or Unsolicited Commercial Email (UCE)

SPAM slows down email servers, reducing quality of service, and distracts email users from legitimate emails, reducing productivity. Several measures help reduce the effects of SPAM, including improving server security, limiting the exposure of email addresses to spammers, and using SPAM-filtering software.

Email server software for Linux has had a long history of fighting SPAM. Transparen can help organizations avoid SPAM by evaluating the current email server (if there is one), suggesting alternatives, and implementing improvements in a way that ensures that emails will not be lost.

Security

Email is transmitted using plain-text, and the protocol commonly used to retrieve email from internet email servers (POP3) transmits user name and password information in clear text. Therefore, it is possible for a third-party to intercept log-in information and read sensitive information or cause emails to be lost.

Transparen can provide alternative ways to collect email that minimize this risk of email interception.

Viruses

Protecting your organization from viruses is an important goal, since viruses can destroy productivity, important documents, and security. To protect against the threat of viruses, we can configure your server to block high-risk attachments. We can also install virus scanners to scan emails before they are downloaded.

Transparen supports ClamAV, a GPL Virus Scanner.
