'Seamless, affordable' email compliance and encryption

Dell has introduced enhancements to the Hosted Email Security service that add advanced compliance violation and threat protection, as well as mobile-ready secure email exchange. The solution provides superior, cloud-based protection from inbound and outbound threats at an affordable price point.

 

Email is critical for business communication, but it also can expose a business to sabotage and productivity drains if email-based threats like spam, phishing, viruses and zombies flood mail servers and user inboxes. What’s more, government regulations now hold businesses accountable for protecting confidential data, ensuring it is not leaked and that email containing sensitive customer data or confidential information is securely exchanged.

 

In addition, email spoofing is on the rise. Spammers are falsifying email sender addresses to fool recipients while also inflicting damage to unknowing legitimate brands. Protecting from the dynamic, evolving email threat landscape while managing and maintaining an on-premises email security solution is costly and time consuming. Organisations can benefit from replacing legacy solutions with an easy-to-use, affordable hosted email security solution that easily integrates with existing email infrastructure, can be quickly provisioned without upfront expense, and dynamically responds to new threats while reducing ongoing administration cost and complexity. Whether the organisation is a growing small- to midsize business (SMB), a large distributed enterprise, or managed service provider (MSP), what’s needed is a cost-effective way to deploy email security and encryption, and the scalability to easily grow capacity for—and delegate management across— organisational units and domains.

 

Dell Solution provides secure email exchange to protect confidential information and ensure email compliance

Dell™ SonicWALL™ Hosted Email Security provides superior cloud-based protection from inbound and outbound threats including spam, phishing, zombie attacks and malware at an affordable, predictable and flexible monthly or annual subscription price. At the same time, it minimises upfront deployment time and costs, as well as ongoing administration expenses.

 

The service now adds:

· Advanced compliance scanning, management and email encryption to prevent confidential data leaks and regulatory violations, and ensure the secure exchange of sensitive data

· Policy configuration at the department or organisational level to scan outbound email content and attachments for sensitive data, and route email for approval or encryption. Encrypted email can be tracked to confirm the time of receipt and time opened.

· Recipient intuitive, with a notification email delivered to the recipient’s inbox containing instructions to log in to a secure portal to read or securely download email. Cloud-based service requires no additional client software, and unlike competitive solutions, the encrypted email may be accessed and read from mobile devices or laptops.

 

In addition, for advanced threat protection, the service adds Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting and Conformance (DMARC), a powerful email authentication method that helps identify spoofed mail to reduce spam and phishing attacks, and reports on sources and senders of email, so customers can identify and shut down unauthorised senders falsifying email with the customer’s address, thereby protecting their brand.
