Re: All-in-one Spam/Virus Solution

Hi I would agree and would suggest a similar setup but would also add: Mimecast or iCritical - this cuts down traffic as all mail is scanned for spam & viruses before it reaches the network. MailMarshal - for granularity and checking of file types. You can create users and user groups so some people receive all, others receive very little. There is an option so users can release their own emails as well.

It can become a bit pricey but managment felt the same way I did at the time. I used one package for my Exchange environment (Trend Micro), another for the servers (Symantec/Norton) and a third for the Workstations (McAfee). Now there was some real effort in determining what to put where, and we evaluated all 3 products in all three locations and this is where they worked best for the users and Systems staff. This was also back inthe 1990s and a lot of new technologies have emerged since then and more vendors to select from. I would be very careful about putting all of your eggs in one basket. Chris.
