Keep Your Inbox Clean!
Using Astaro’s Mail Filtering, all of the spam and
other unwanted email can be stopped before it gets
delivered and clutters up mailboxes. A single Astaro
can scan millions of messages per day for multiple
domains, reducing employee confusion and
frustration, and allowing them to work more
efficiently.
The fight against spam has one goal: Only valid,
wanted messages should end up in an inbox.
Spammers are clever, and constantly adjust their
methods to bypass the filtering technology which
stops their messages from being delivered and keeps
them from getting paid. Astaro has several weapons
in their Mail Filtering toolkit which can remove
spam. Their primary engine uses a global pattern and
fingerprinting technology to keep your inboxes
clean.
Using Astaro, spam is identified by real-time
communication with a network of millions of
analyzers and participants which electronically scan
and share the fingerprints of the mails they
receive. With this approach, spam outbreaks are
noticed within seconds, and Astaro receives live
information as to which messages should be treated
as spam, and which are valid.
Their Anti-Spam engine doesn’t care what language
the message is in, or even what it says inside. By
tracking and identifying spam as it is launched and
spread, the solution can scan at a much faster rate,
with a far greater accuracy, than a traditional
examination system where each message is totally
inspected against an inflexible number of fixed
rules.
Astaro’s Anti Spam includes one of the most
extensive sets of antispam technologies available in
the industry today offering highest detection and
lowest false positive rates
- Identifies and Disposes Unsolicited
SMTP and POP3 Emails

Stop Viruses BEFORE they get in!
Deflect damaging and malicious content at the
gateway using dual, individual virus engines that
operate in parallel. This allows content to be
scanned and blocked before it has a chance to enter
the network and test the defenses of the
workstations and servers directly, greatly reducing
the chance of infection.
Viruses remain a problem even with the latest in
desktop defense. By stopping this malicious content
before it enters the network, administrators can use
Astaro to prevent viruses from draining
productivity, damaging data on servers and
workstations, and causing embarrassment to the
company from infected machines spreading the virus
to business contacts.
Astaro’s dual-scanning system allows for files,
messages, and website objects to be scanned twice
with different engines, increasing the effectiveness
vs. a single scanner. All companies have varying
response times to the latest threats, and even a
period of a few minutes of ineffective pattern
awareness can cause serious damage to your network.
By having parallel scanners, this risk is further
reduced.
Protected by Astaro Antivirus, users that encounter
viruses while surfing and downloading files get a
detailed block page informing them why the block has
happened, so they do not get confused or need to
create an IT support ticket for why a website or
download “isn’t working”. Mail messages with viruses
can be quarantined for review or deleted outright,
while built-in reports show you the effectiveness of
Astaro’s Antivirus solution.
Astaro’s unique Antivirus technology reliably
detects and blocks viruses, worms, trojans, and
other “malware” in emails, web and ftp downloads
before they reach email servers or desktops
- Dual Independent Virus Scanners with
Multiple Detection Methods
- Virus signatures
- heuristic analysis
- Scans HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, SMTP and
POP3 Traffic
- Scans Encrypted SMTP Traffic
- Huge Signature Database
- more than 800,000 virus signatures
- Frequent automatic updates
- Flexible Management
- Can specify file formats (endings) and
content (MIME type) to block
- Emails and attachments can be dropped,
rejected with message to sender, passed with
a warning, or quarantined

Keep Your E-mail Messages Private!
Emails are far from private. They allow anyone
between the sender and the receiver to intercept,
read, and even copy or alter the contents. With
Astaro email encryption, you can encase your
messages in a secure package and stamp it with a
tamper-proof seal. By keeping messages private, your
company avoids data loss, gains the ability to send
very sensitive data via email and lets users
validate incoming and outgoing messages with digital
signatures.
The learning cost associated with implementing email
encryption products is high. With Astaro’s mail
encryption, the learning costs is removed. Operating
transparently at the gateway, Astaro’s system easily
encrypts and decrypts messages and allows the
administrator to manage all operations from a
central point.
Once enabled, the mail encryption engine can be
pre-loaded with PGP or S/MIME encryption keys of
senders and expected recipients before deployment so
the system is ready to go right away. Astaro can
also “farm” keys out of messages. So that if
chuck@astaro.com emails your company with his key or
digital signature attached to his message (a common
practice among those using encrypted email), then
Astaro’s encryption system will notice this and
extract his key, placing it in the system
repository. Future emails to Chuck from any user of
your company will be automatically encrypted, and he
will decrypt it with the existing system that he
uses.
Astaro is the only vendor offering comprehensive but
easy to use Email Encryption functionality within a
UTM appliance allowing even small to medium sized
businesses using secure email transfer for sensitive
information.

Signatures for SMTP Emails

A central place for users to manage mail and
remote access.
The Astaro UserPortal is a self-management hub where
employees can work with their email messages and
previously configured remote access technologies
without the help of an Administrator. Companies can
save time, and empower users to manage their own
spam quarantine and message activity without and IT
administrators interventions.
The UserPortal is perfect for allowing employees to
manage some of the usual tasks that involve an
administrator themselves. It is available in over 15
languages and can be customized with the message a
company wishes to show employees once they login.
Users can make own personal spam whitelist or sort
through their spam quarantine in moments to find a
message they require.
Upon login, if allowed to use the feature, an
employee could download their SSL VPN client to
permit secure access to resources behind the Astaro
installation. They can review, release, and delete
messages in their mail quarantine directly, without
waiting for the daily report or an administrator to
respond to a release request, allowing them to work
more effectively and freeing up administrators to do
other tasks.
Astaro UserPortal boasts the industries only
personalized mail log, so that if a message has been
received but was deleted due to a virus or bounced
due to a blacklist entry, the user can still find
out what exactly happened to the message, even
though they haven’t received it and it isn’t in
their quarantine. This type of searchable, forensic
display is usable by anyone, and saves huge amounts
of time as extensive log file searching or
discussing with the sender over when/if a message
was sent is avoided.
Astaro’s web-based UserPortal presents many options
to the end-user to track and monitor quarantined
messages or manage VPN client packages, hence
greatly reducing the administrator’s workload in
dealing with user queries.
- SMTP / POP3 Mail Quarantine
- Search, view, release, download, delete
and whitelist spam mails in your
