Even worse though... ( from a security and risk
standpoint) if you have a Mail server virus scanner, and
your users opt for user authentication, it must be done
thru the mail server, effectively bypassing your expensive
virus scanner which obviously defeats the purpose of
the virus scanner anyway. It also adds another point of
failure in the process. Not to mention allowing viruses
into your company. With our Stealth Virus System, you
are covered.
Every email user should use our powerful virus protection
service, neglecting to do so could endanger your system
and the information stored on it.
Serious Security Breaches
There is also another serious type of vulnerability that has recently been discovered:
vulnerabilities that allow viruses to bypass mail server virus scanners! The
"Outlook 'MIME segment vulnerability causes Outlook to "see" viruses that DON'T ACTUALLY EXIST in an E-mail.
In this case, a mail client (or mail server virus
scanner) that properly decodes the E-mail will not see an attachment causing
Outlook to incorrectly see an attachment.
MIME is very complex, and even leading mail server manufacturers often have
troubles handling MIME segments properly. We know MIME and encoding schemes
inside and out and our systems can handle the most sophisticated MIME segments
What does this mean?
New viruses using this type of vulnerability, will bypass
a standard mailserver virus scanner, delivering it to
a recipient that assumed they were protected! Do you really
want to take that chance? Can you afford to lose your data?
Our Stealth Gateway Virus Scanner will catch new viruses
that use these vulnerabilities.
What they don't tell you!
Most Anti Virus programs like Norton; scan the E-mail
once you've received it on your computer. Obviously, this
is not the safest way or time to scan a message, because
there is the possibility that your program will not catch
the virus ( a lot of the new viruses try to bypass Anti-Virus
software ) and you will unknowingly install it on your
computer causing damage to your system.
Benefits of our system
Our system requires no changes to your current settings or MX records,
and your users don't even need to know there were any changes.
Best of all.., ALL your E-mail will be scanned, even if
some users use authentication.
How it works
Our IMail server handles all the SMTP protocol ( verification, authentication etc. as normal) Our Stealth Virus system only gets involved when it gets called on to process the E-mails, decode
the attachments, and pass the attachments back to Imail to be sent on it's way if safe.
Our Anti-Virus software is updated every 5 minutes!
The Stealth system includes a very important feature not
widely available in the e-mail systems that are on the market
today. If someone sends you a message that includes a virus
our system will identify the problem, quarantine the message
and notify both you and the sender of the problem. As well
as this works on an incoming message it works just as effectively
on an outgoing message. Some of the currently available
web based Email systems say they scan for viruses but for
various reasons they do not automatically scan the messages
and it is very possible for you to install a virus sent
to your account long before they are introduced to your
computer ( Don't want to name names).
Live virus scanning
We offer a live virus scan of all messages coming onto
your account long before it is introduced to your computer.
If someone sends you a message that includes a virus, our
system will identify the problem and quarantine the message
and notify both you and the sender of the problem. It works
just as well on incoming messages as out going messages.
If we identify a virus on an outgoing message that you have
sent, we quarantine it and notify you that you need to check
you computer.
Since 80% of computer viruses are distributed by email, Stealth Anti-Virus
and Spam Contorl is the most convenient and affordable way
to be protected from the ever-increasing email viruses.
Please note that this service does not guarantee that you
will not get any viruses on your computer, as email is only
one way in which you can become infected.
