Borderware Mxtreme Mail Firewall

email is the business application for the Internet,

The MXtreme email firewall from Borderware Technologies Inc. is built upon the same hardened operating system S-Core ™ that the Firewall Server is founded. The Borderware MXtreme is designed to provide an organisation with the maximum degree of control and management of all mail flowing into and out of the enterprise.

From external mail:

• Viruses and other malicious content
• Spam and unsolicited email
• Hackers subverting your mail service connections

From internal users:

• Viruses
• Breaches of confidentiality
• Legal liability from the sending of offensive content
• Wasting company resources for personal use

Message management

BorderWare's MXtreme meets these challenges head-on and puts control of your email system back where it belongs - with you.

With comprehensive Content Security and simple but effective Policy Management, the Mail Gateway provides you with the tools to control exactly who is sending what through your email system.

Protecting your mail servers

Other threats to your email system may come from its direct connection to the Internet. Both the SMTP service and the underlying operating system are vulnerable to hackers.

Running on its own hardened OS and with an integrated full-featured SMTP server, the MXtreme offers unrivalled security and performance for email processing.

The MXtreme Firewall can be safely deployed inside or outside a firewall, and provides complete protection to sensitive internal mail servers based on Exchange, Notes etc.

Secure remote access

MXtreme includes BorderPost, a unique secure remote access system that allows roaming and remote users web-based access to their internal mailboxes and now the full functionality of Exchange OWA. MXtreme's unique security architecture gives administrators the confidence to provide this access without the complications of configuring comparable solutions.

Spam is vernacular or slang for all unsolicited or 'junk' email. The origins of the name are variously attributed to American GI's K rations and the Spam Sketch from the 1970's British cult comedy program Monty Python's Flying Circus.

Wherever the name comes from is, to the average email user only of passing interest. What's more relevant is where the junk email comes from and how to stop it cluttering up their inbox.
