Virus and Malware Protection

Security experts agree that combating today's Internet threats requires the interaction of multiple technologies to be effective. This defense in depth strategy dramatically increases the probability that a virus or other malicious program will be detected before it can infiltrate your network.

To protect against modern threats, Frontgate utilizes multiple, enterprise-class anti-virus engines to scan messages for viruses and other malicious email exploits. Frontgate anti-virus scanners not only detect every type of virus and malicious threat including macro viruses, Trojan Horses, and worms, but also stop non-virus attacks such as rogue Active-X controls and Java scripts. Combining multiple anti-virus engines provides greater threat coverage and eliminates a single point of failure.

All incoming messages are recursively decoded and deep scanned by the anti-virus engines. Messages that are infected with a virus are destroyed and the intended recipients are notified. To provide protection against rapidly spreading viruses, anti-virus signatures are updated multiple times each day.

Blocking Harmful Attachments

Viruses and other malicious programs are often sent through email as executable files. Users are tricked by various methods into clicking on the infected attachment and launching a malicious program. Frontgate protects your network by blocking harmful self-executing attachments.
