Postini™ services secure and managed
email systems, without the need for
software or hardware. Using patent-pending
pass-through technology (versus store-and-forward
methods). Email bound for a company's
email server is processed in real-time
through a highly secure service architecture.
Within milliseconds, Postini's award-winning
email security solution separates spam
and viruses from legitimate messages.
Legitimate email is instantly passed
on to the destination mail server. Suspicious
email can either be quarantined in a
web-based, password-protected message
center for administrator or end-user
review, or tagged and delivered. The
entire process is fully automated and
virtual – valid emails are not
stored or written to disk, nor are they
physically accessed by any persons other
than the recipient or authorized administrator.
Postini Perimeter Manager is:
- Accurate. Postini's world-class heuristics and ensemble scoring engine captures up
to 99% of all spam with false positive rates as low as 1 in 80,000 messages.
- Reliable. Backed by a 99.999% service level guarantee.
- Easy to Manage. The most comprehensive suite
of monitoring and management tools available
today, allowing email administrators
to monitor the Postini service and their
own email infrastructure in real-time.
Because Postini handles billions of connections every day, they are constantly
developing the latest, highly accurate intelligence on what is happening on the
internet. When they block a virus from one sender, they alert the entire network. So
your protection stays ahead of the "bad guys." This "network effect" makes
Postini's protection more efficient than any firewalls or anti-spam software can
be. This is possible with an expansive, multi-tenant operations capability that
only Postini can offer.
The Postini Real-time Evaluation and Message Processing Technology, or
PREEMPT™, provides five layers of protection against all email-borne threats.
Backed by a 100% anti-virus service level agreement, PREEMPT includes the
following components:
- Postini Threat Identification Network® (PTIN) technology to block
connections from malicious internet protocol (IP) addresses
- Signature-based anti-virus scans with signature updates checked every 60
seconds
- Anti-virus heuristics that monitor current virus activity and help predict
the likelihood of future attacks
- Statistical analysis and evaluation of message components for level of
threat
- Proactive checks on attachments to block or quarantine specific file types
including compressed files
The Postini Threat Identification Network blocks
messages coming from specific IP addresses based on observed, malicious
behavior. This means that your company is protected as soon as a new threat is
detected anywhere on the network. Because the blocks are based on real-time IP
traffic analysis, your protection does not need to wait for spam, virus, or worm
signatures.
This allows Postini to block attacks at the network layer to give you the
best protection from threats, coupled with the highest performance and
scalability.
The Postini Anti-Spam Engine (PASE) is a heuristic framework, developed by
Postini to analyze the content of messages and learn as spammers present new
threats. PASE can block emerging threats, such as image spam and other day-one
attacks, because it has learned to identify these new threats before they can
cause damage. It can also address a variety of traffic such as instant messaging
(IM) and web, and supports your policies by taking the appropriate actions based
on your unique settings by user, group, and company.
High-performance characteristics and multi-lingual capability make it ideal
for global deployments.
