Avinti™ Launches Proactive Email iSolation™ Security Solution
Avinti's iSolation Server stops threats not detected by traditional security solutions.
San Francisco, CA (Vocus/PRWEB ) February 5, 2007 -- Avinti, a developer of proactive email security solutions, announced today the launch of iSolation™ Server 3.0, which stops threats such as, zero-day threats, targeted attacks and first-instance malware that are not detected by traditional security solutions. Available as a product or as a hosted service, the iSolation™ Server uses a proprietary, high-performance Observation Engine™ that looks at malware behavior to proactively and safely block threats before reaching enterprise systems.
The iSolation™ Server complements existing signature-based security layers with an effective solution that allows enterprises to tune email security policies on email attachments. Many companies recognize the need to utilize a multi-layer solution, however most implement redundant technology layers for a less-optimized result.
"Today's environment requires that companies pursue a differentiated layered strategy that more effectively handles both existing and new, changing threats, said Avinti CEO William Kilmer. "An effective, differentiated layered strategy combines a proactive, observation-based solution like Avinti's with traditional reactive and signature-based anti-virus products for maximum security protection."
Recently-publicized attacks by hackers underscore the need for a solution that can stop malware that traditional signature-based or traffic pattern-based solutions can't. These new threats often bypass traditional systems because no signature yet exists or the threat is targeted for a specific enterprise or industry.
"We are very happy with the performance of Avinti's iSolation Server because it stops zero-day threats that don't yet have signatures," said Girgoriy Milis, Director of Technology for Richard Fleischman & Associates (RFA), which provides IT solutions and services to Hedge Funds. "Our customers demand top-rate security and Avinti's unique proactive, behavior-based approach is delivering a higher level of risk-mitigation and peace of mind."
Avinti's approach is unique because it safely observes actual behavior of potentially threatening messages, rather than relying on reactive signature-based approaches. The iSolation Server first sorts e-mail based on user parameters to identify potential threats. Clean messages are delivered immediately to the e-mail server, while at-risk messages and attachments are sent to the high-performance Observation Engine™. The Observation Engine™ proactively observes the actual behavior of the message in a secure and protected environment -- then quickly delivers clean messages while quarantining malware and other identified threats. The iSolation™ Server can scale to handle more than one hundred thousand mailboxes and 1.5 million messages per day.
Avinti's iSolation™ Server, featuring the high-performance Observation Engine, is available immediately. For more information, visit www.avinti.com.
