Anti-Spam Protection »
No single analytic technique is enough to stop the constantly morphing forms of spam. Even multiple techniques are not enough to keep spam at bay for long. And rigid scoring often ends up blocking e-mail that you actually want to receive. SonicWALL takes spam management beyond arbitrary scoring with our revolutionary evidence evaluation system that identifies the sender, analyzes the content, and applies a collaborative review to every e-mail. When all three elements are simultaneously cross-analyzed can you have true confidence in your solution's handling of your company's e-mail. more info »
IP Reputation/Connection Management »
SonicWALL’s Advanced Reputation Management improves upon traditional IP reputation techniques by applying reputation to not only the Sending IP, but also to the URLs, content, structure, images, attachments and more of an e-mail. When combined with attack prevention (DHA), quality of service (DoS, IP throttling, etc), Backscatter/NDR attack prevention with BATV, and other connection management techniques, SonicWALL Email Security can reject up to 80% of e-mail threats at the connection. The remaining messages are processed by spam, phishing and virus filters to remove residual junk e-mail. Advanced Reputation Management includes the logging of all actions, the ability to tune specific reputation elements and centralized management and reporting across multiple systems. more info »
Anti-Phishing Protection »
Phishing e-mails are specifically created to imitate legitimate e-mails, often copying actual corporate communication. Billions of phishing e-mails are sent out every month and can lead to identity theft, security breaches, and financial loss and liability. SonicWALL’s patented anti-phishing technology uniquely allows SonicWALL Email Security to detect and classify phishing emails long before they are blocked using traditional URL blocking mechanisms employed by other solutions. more info »
