Gain 100 Percent Protection

Webroot incorporates more virus engines than any other email security solution. Multiple best-of-breed signature engines deliver guaranteed 100 percent protection against known viruses. Additional zero-hour and heuristic filters identify new and unknown viruses with minimal impact on scan time and service delivery.

Block Spam Efficiently

Webroot focuses on connection management and integration of best-of-breed filters to block 98 percent of all spam with the lowest possible rate of false positives. Outbound spam protection locates and blocks infected machines from sending spam through the company network.

Protect Against Backscatter

Backscatter occurs when a spammer spoofs a legitimate email address to send an unsolicited message to large distribution lists. This causes the email server to flood an unsuspecting email address owner’s mailbox with hundreds or thousands of failed delivery messages. Webroot employs an advanced technique called Bounce Address Tag Validation (BATV) that provides robust protection for your business:

• Every sent message is marked with a timestamp and unique cryptographic signature that cannot be duplicated.
• Failed delivery messages that do not reference this signature are marked as spam and blocked from entering the user’s mailbox.

Stop Pornographic Images

Webroot’s Image Filter analyzes and blocks distasteful email attachments that can cause user distress and lead to corporate liability.

Neutralize Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) Attacks

DDoS attacks on mail servers can disrupt a company’s email communications. When email traffic is routed through Webroot E-Mail Security SaaS, the attacks are neutralized before they reach the network.

Terminate Directory Harvest Attacks (DHA)

Spammers use DHAs in an attempt to locate valid email addresses by guessing permutations of common user names and attaching the domain name. Webroot’s service transparently consumes these emails instead of publicly rejecting them. Your organization is protected from DHA threats and divulgence of email addresses.

Policy Based Email Encryption

Meet legal, compliance and regulatory standards by automatically encrypting email messages based on company email policy. Webroot’s policy based encryption service expands data loss prevention capabilities and improves the secure handling of confidential company data. Customizable encryption policies allow automatic email encryption based on existing administration rules. Users can also encrypt communications on an as-needed basis. Messages are sent securely even if the recipient does not have encryption capabilities, eliminating the need for users to manage encryption keys.

Integrate Compliance Dictionaries

The Webroot content scanning engine includes integrated, customized compliance dictionaries and templates to help you design content control policies to meet industry and regulatory standards such as HIPPA, GLBA, PCI and others. You can create rules to scan outbound email content using these dictionaries to prevent against data loss and to ensure company compliance.

Acquire Enhanced Data Loss Protection

Webroot Deep Content Scanning provides enhanced data loss protection (DLP) by scanning inbound and outbound email file attachments. One of the leading threats to network security is exposure of confidential information and data loss via corporate email communications. Webroot mitigates this risk by:

• Inspecting content embedded within file attachments
• Providing remediation according to company email policy
• Extending the integrated compliance lexicon into file attachment scanning to strengthen company compliance and regulatory practices and to enhance data loss protection capabilities

Enable Seamless, Uninterrupted Email

In the event of an internal mail server outage or other disaster, the Webroot Business Continuity service enables company email access via a Webmail portal to ensure seamless email communication. You receive up to 28 days of inbound and outbound email thanks to secure, mirrored data stores. Because the portal is Web based, users can send and receive email from any browser worldwide, thereby ensuring your business won’t lose important business communication during periods of downtime.

Enhance Every Aspect of Archiving

The Webroot Managed Archiving Service is a scalable, off-site email data archive that helps you better manage storage costs, retain company records, and meet data security and compliance requirements. Regardless of email platform, the Webroot Managed Archiving Service guarantees security, data integrity and availability:

• Inbound, outbound and internal email communications are encrypted, indexed, stored and replicated real-time within Webroot’s Global Security Network.

Create and Enforce Policies

Webroot E-Mail Security SaaS utilizes a powerful and customizable rules engine to create and enforce content- and event-based email policies. End users and administrators can determine how messages are handled and how reports are designed based on the following criteria:

• Inbound and outbound traffic management

Audit logs are created for every email sent to or from your organization. You can search for email based on date, time, sender, recipient, subject and email type or size. Legislation-compliant audit records accurately display status of any email along with transmission handshakes with sending or receiving mail servers.
