Ltd. announced its plans to unveil the security solutions for the Linux platform during CeBIT Australia, region's largest and most important exhibition for Information and Communications Technology.

ISPs world over have been airing a demand to publish MailScan compatible with their Linux based servers as well. MicroWorld is happy to announce the launch of the beta version of the product MailScan for Linux to the Linux Community of Australia. With the increasing popularity, Linux is grabbing its own share of malicious Internet attacks. The new highly advanced software from MicroWorld will not only perform the scanning of all your incoming and outgoing SMTP/POP3 e-mails for viruses and spam but also all the attachments will be scanned at the gateway level itself ensuring that not even a single bad content is delivered to the users mailbox. The software has the intelligence to look into the compressed attachments also and block the whole attachment even if a single file is found to be suspicious. This feature makes the software capable of fighting the wildest attacks like MyDoom and Bagle. As an advancement and precautionary measure, the software has been developed in a manner to scan the attachment even if the files have been doubly zipped.

The antispam feature of the software ensures that no irritating advertisements or e-mails from pre-specified e-mail addresses are delivered to the users mailbox. All e-mails considered to be spam by the system are marked spam and delivered to the specific folder so that the user can read through these e-mails at his convenience and does not lose any important information.

The company will also showcase its award winning products, eScan and MailScan, world's first real time anti-virus and content security products for desktops, file servers, citirx servers and mail servers. Working on revolutionary MicroWorld Winsock Layer Technology, the products from MicroWorld fight and disinfect the malicious internet threats much before they hit the users system. Even in the case of virus outbreaks for which no vaccine is available, the users of software from MicroWorld do not need to worry, as any suspected material is quarantined and not delivered to the users inbox until and unless further instructions are issued.

eScan, the winner of various security awards including VB 100% and Best content security and antivirus product (By VAR magazine) not only performs the heuristic scanning of your internet traffic for the virus but also the malicious content. Sources (www.nwfusion.com/news/2003/0702reporspam.html) say that an organization on an average looses $874 per year per employee due to spam.

eScan has helped the organizations worldwide in increasing their productivity by offering solutions to curb any spam from being delivered to the user inbox. The Pop up filters ensure that resources and bandwidth is not wasted on un-wanted ads and content. An extremely vital feature highly rejoiced by the corporate houses is the eScans capability to control the unproductive use of Internet during the working hours, ensuring a many fold rise in the productivity quotient of the business. The software has been designed intelligent enough to detect the virus which even comes in the zipped files and try to create havoc for e.g. MyDoom.

This user friendly product offers the administrator the ease of installing, uninstalling and maintenance of the software on all the network machines from a remote location. The software has an inbuilt NETBIOS firewall and always stays on the high alert with Daily Automatic Internet Updates and Urgent updates feature. MicroWorld offers a premium service of FREE 24 X 7 Customer support.

MailScan, the software offering its users the capability to fight any malicious attacks at the gateway level itself will also be show cased at the event.
