Secure Mail (IronMail)

Secure Mail delivers a centrally managed, integrated, best-of-breed messaging gateway security appliance for enterprises of all types and sizes.

Combined Security for Both Inbound and Outbound Threats

"We thought we were purchasing an anti-spam and anti-virus product. Instead, as a result of Secure Mail’s superior security offering, we were excited to find that we implemented a key tool that helps us realize our business goals and keeps our company on track."

In one integrated appliance platform, Secure Mail protects enterprise email systems from inbound (spam, viruses, phishing, and hackers) and outbound threats (regulatory or corporate policy compliance violations or theft/leakage of confidential information or intellectual property). Secure Mail even protects enterprise email systems from threats that haven’t yet been identified.

Management Appliances

Secure Mail delivers a centrally managed, integrated, best-of-breed messaging gateway security appliance for enterprises of all types and sizes. To ease administration and management of large IronMail deployments, two management appliances are available.

Central Management Console
Centralized Management Console (CMC) is the ideal enterprise solution for managing multiple Secure Mail gateway email security appliances. CMC provides centralized management of any combination of multiple Secure Mail, web mail, and/or encryption deployments.

"Switching to Secure Mail (IronMail) was like night and day. Users noted immediately that Secure Computing’s solution was not blocking legitimate email, and they love the quarantine function. Now they can focus on the important research work and less on the distraction of spam."

The CMC is designated as the "master" appliance. It allows an administrator to create databases of policy and configuration settings that can be "pushed" to one or more of its "slaves." From the CMC, the email administrator can centrally manage updates available to the slave machines. Likewise, the CMC can centrally receive all slave-generated logs, reports, and alerts, and process them accordingly. A dashboard allows the administrator to view all essential slave appliance services from within one window.

The master and slave communication is mediated via private key/public key authentication, uniquely created for each CMC and its Secure Mail slaves. (No CMC or any other mechanism can decrypt another CMC/Secure Mail key).

Central Quarantine Server
Secure Mail Central Quarantine Server (CQS) is the ideal solution in enterprises that have multiple IronMail appliances and high email message volumes (perhaps 200K - 400K messages per day). When an administrator wants to quarantine messages for up to 30 days, CQS enables those quarantines to be handled separately, thereby reducing the disk space and processing requirements on the main Secure Mail appliance(s).

Secure Mail Edge

Secure Mail Edge sits at the network perimeter and can instantly drop unwanted emails and messages at very high rates of speed before they hit the email servers. Secure Mail Edge uses TrustedSource, Secure Computing’s best-in-class reputation system, to allow orreject email before it even reaches your critical mail servers.

Eliminate Wasteful Archiving of Spam
Many regulations stipulate that you must archive all email messages that aredelivered to the email server – whether they are good messagesor spam. Secure Mail Edge saves you thousands of dollars by deleting spam messages well before the mail server ever sees them and eliminating the need to archive them for years.

Powerful Messaging Protection
The global reputation service provided by TrustedSource allows Secure Mail Edge to allow or reject email messages based on a number of algorithms and analysis, including:

  • LDAP rejection – messages addressed to individuals not included in the corporate LDAP are automatically dropped
  • IP reputation – messages from known bad senders are automatically dropped
  • Message reputation – messages containing known bad content (even if the sender is unknown) are automatically dropped
  • Anti-virus signature – messages containing viruses identified by the anti-virus signature file are automatically dropped
  • Directory harvest attacks – connection is closed after a defined number of rejections due to invalid recipient address is reached
  • Traffic shaping – messages from unknown IP senders are restricted to smaller bandwidths, ensuring that good traffic won’t be bottlenecked

Enterprise Throughput
Edge can protect organizations of any size, with throughput of up to millions of email messages per appliance per hour.

Interoperability with All Mail Security Solutions
Secure Mail Edge is interoperable with all existing mail security gateways and mail servers. Anytime capacity or bandwidth issues arise, Secure Mail Edge is the right solution. By discarding 50-80% of bad emails before they ever enter the gateway, investments in existing hardware and software infrastructure can be protected.

Simple Setup and Administration
Edge is easy to install and maintain. The wizard-driven set-up is intuitive, guiding the administrator through a simple point-and-click interface. Secure Computing advises administrators of exactly which settings will work best in their environment based on current best practices in use by thousands of Secure Computing appliances around the world.

Results
Secure Mail Edge can quickly and painlessly reduce your message volumes of known bad emails by 50-80%. Spam, image spam, malware and hackers are automatically thwarted without any network bandwidth or resources being consumed, protecting network investments and improving overall security.

Secure Mail Edge provides the following benefits:

  • Works with all email security options for maximum flexibility
  • Bad traffic never enters your infrastructure
  • Spam messages don’t need to be archived for years and years
  • Saves on messaging servers’ processing time
  • Maximizes bandwidth utilization
  • Minimizes infrastructure expenses
  • Improves overall security

Secure Mail Encryption

While few will debate the value of encrypting messages that contain sensitive information, many security officers have resisted installing an encryption solution due to the multiple incompatible technologies, difficulty in communicating encryption requirements to end users, and challenges of getting end users to enforce the corporate policies.

"Secure Computing is a leading provider of messaging security solutions and with the results that we have received from our Secure Mail (IronMail) and Secure Mail Encryption appliances, we can see why,"

Secure Computing solves these problems with an integrated, policy-based encryption solution that automates and enforces corporate IP protection policies with no end-user intervention. Just ask Network World Magazine, who named the Secure Computing Encryption solution the “Clear Choice Test” winner for enterprise email encryption.

Powerful Policy Engine Removes User from the Equation
Secure Mail Encryption allows detailed policies to be automatically enforced, so that the messages containing sensitive or protected content are automatically sent encrypted.


Encryption Flexibility
A key challenge in encryption is adapting to the needs of the recipient. Depending on their capabilities, different types of encryption may be most appropriate. With the help of Secure Computing’s policy engine, the encryption engine can dynamically select between different encryption methodologies to best fit the situation. Secure Computing Encryption sends messages securely from gateway-to-gateway using:

  • TLS
  • S/MIME
  • OpenPGP

In addition, Secure Mail Encryption offers several options for gateway-to-user, or user-to-user encryption, including:

  • Push Technology
  • Pull Technology
  • Voltage IBE
  • PGP® Universal Gateway

Secure Computing's policy engine determines which communications need to be encrypted, and automatically chooses the most appropriate encryption technology based upon the recipient's technological capabilities.

Easy Credential Set-Up
Secure Mail Encryption can import existing keys or generate appropriate credentials to support all encryption methods, ensuring that administrators do not have to be encryption experts.

Benefits
Secure Computing’s flexible encryption options ensure that:

  • Users don’t have to remember what to encrypt
  • Compliance is assured regardless of end user behavior
  • Recipients can open and use encrypted emails without training or downloading client software
