MX
Logic Email Defense Service
MX Logic brought the concept of email defense
to market in response to the escalating risks jeopardizing business
email systems and networks. With its industry-leading network-perimeter
protection, MX Logic successfully blocks more than 99% of all email
threats using a combination of proven spam filters, fraud protection,
leading anti-virus engines, content and attachment filtering, and
sophisticated email attack protection. Offering far more than traditional
spam prevention, MX Logic's multilayered technology is positioned
between the Internet and the business network to identify, quarantine,
block and strip email threats before they can infiltrate the organization.
Filtering both inbound and outbound messages allows businesses to
significantly reduce risk, save bandwidth, reduce storage costs,
and minimize administrative costs.
Ease of administration through
web-based platform
MX Logic makes its services effortless − from initial installation
through final reporting. The service offers rapid activation and
requires no integration or migration. Using the MX Control ConsoleSM,
an intuitive web-based email threat management platform, administrators
can effortlessly fine-tune email protection, establish group filtering
policies, customize corporate policies, and stay abreast of message
traffic flow and trends. The Console enables business administrators
to easily configure and control how spam, viruses, worms and inappropriate
content are filtered and set parameters around end-user quarantine
management.

Comprehensive Email Threat Defense:
To protect your company from the dangers inherent in email, MX Logic
developed its Email Defense Service. This service provides companies
with an additional layer of email threat protection at the network
perimeter - identifying, quarantining, blocking and stripping spam,
viruses, worms, and malicious and unwanted content before they can
enter or leave an organization’s messaging infrastructure.
Built from the ground up to provide outstanding
email protection and security, MX Logic’s solutions filter up to
98.5% of spam and maintain an industry-leading low false positive
rate (legitimate email marked as spam). In addition, these solutions
liberate IT resources and fuel employee productivity, while decreasing
network and storage costs and reducing corporate liability. Providing
around-the-clock protection, MX Logic’s Threat Management Team detects
and blocks all email based threats entering or leaving your network.
Technology:
MX Logic’s Email Defense Service utilizes the Mail eXchange (MX)
record in Domain Name System (DNS). With MX Logic’s technology,
customers do not risk message loss during the filtering process.
Unlike other email protection solutions, MX Logic’s services act
as a “proxy,” filtering messages in-line as they are delivered to
the customer (see figure below). It is important to note that MX
Logic is not a traditional store-and-forward filtering service that
accepts an email for a customer and writes the message to a disk
queue, where it can be lost if the disk queue is damaged or corrupted.
