The "Budget" version of Email Defense is contains all of the great features of regular Email Defense except for virus and worm filtering. If you have your own virus filtering software, then you can save money by not duplicating the filtering in Email Defense.

What are the reasons for ordering this option?

Clean and secure emails are something we all want. With Email Defense, you are assured the best in email filtering technology. But while inbound email threats receive the bulk of attention from network administrators, outbound email can cause tremendous problems for organizations. Through outbound email, confidential information can get into the wrong hands, servers can crash from dangerously-sized attachments, and organizations face risk a liability from the distribution of emails containing inappropriate content.

Note that this service is not compatible with the use of LuxSci's standard outbound SMTP and WebMail services for clients who normally send outbound email via LuxSci and who do not have dedicated servers. Such clients can choose to use either this outbound filtering service or the special outbound tools provided with the normal email hosting services provided by LuxSci.

How does this work?

Outbound Message Filtering enables businesses and service providers to proactively integrate email policy enforcement for all messages leaving corporate networks en route to valued customers or business partners.

• Block the transmission of harmful viruses and worms with customizable filtering rules.

• Eliminating the risk of infecting business partners or customers, thus preserving the integrity of your business.
• Protecting information assets by preventing the accidental or intentional distribution of proprietary corporate information.
• Reducing legal liabilities associated emails containing inappropriate content.

• Filtering by content keywords or phrases and by attachment type and size.
