ESET Mail Security 4 for Microsoft Exchange
- Category: Product Information
- Created on 2011-04-04
Exchange server protection
Since most malware comes from e-mail, it should be checked at the highest possible level - the gateway.
ESET Mail Security 4 for Microsoft Exchange brings lightweight and powerful protection for heavy-duty email servers. It offers multithreaded background scanning for higher performance, and rule-based predictive scanning.
If MS Exchange Server is used as a gateway, ESET NOD32 Antivirus tests all incoming mail. The program automatically generates detailed log files and enables administrators to send virus detection messages using LAN or email messages.
