Description:

InterScan eManager is a set of Internet e-mail controls designed to protect intellectual property, enhance employee productivity and improve network traffic flow; the product plugs directly into InterScan VirusWall NT. eManager uses Trend's award-winning virus scanning technology to scan e-mail content for particular keywords, domains and e-mail addresses. The product offers:

  • A rule-based spam filter that allows eManager to block junk mail before it reaches a company's mail server. The spam filter includes both a self-updating list of common spam sources and a customizable list of sources, checking message headers for routing domain, inbound/outbound status and message size, and the message body for designated keywords and phrases.

  • A content filter that can sift through messages to prevent distribution of confidential or inappropriate information inside or outside the enterprise. Filter profiles are based on keyword lists, Boolean keyword combinations, and synonyms. Blocked e-mail can be deleted, quarantined or archived.

  • A rule-based e-mail manager designed to conserve network bandwidth by managing the delivery time of e-mail with large attachments. The software checks message headers for routing domain, inbound/outbound status and message size, then reschedules message delivery as appropriate to off-peak hours.

In the workplace, e-mail has the potential to become the source of time-wasting junk mail or personal correspondence and the distribution of confidential or inappropriate information can raise serious legal issues. eManager is policy-based, so different filters can be applied to different groups at different times, enabling MIS to enforce policy centrally.
