Are you confronted with legal obligations to archive all your business related email in your country as we are in Germany? If yes, come and take a look at the brand new "DEFENDO mail archive".
BTW: Since email has to be archived in an unchanged format, gathering tons of email in mail boxes on your mail server does not count as archiving. In case of a tax audit mail must also be found quickly and made available to the auditor in the most appropriate format.
Therefore we've paid particular attention toward archiving business relevant email as closely to the original as possible.
  • Virus Scan enjoys priority. Infected mail is subject to being filtered out before being archived
  • Mail quarantined by the mail attachment filter will only be archived after the quarantine status has been lifted
  • Mail categorized as spam will be marked as such within the archive

Do you run S/MIME encryption?

Archiving encrypted mail turns out to be a real challenge. Did you know that S/MIME encrypted mail can only be rendered readable by applying the private key originally used to do the encryption - even if the corresponding certificate has expired years ago? So, did you really take care to save all your old keys reliably? And if the key is protected by a password, is it guaranteed that it's still known, even if the owner of the key has left the company?
By using DEFENDO you will not run into any problems with these issues. Just combine the DEFENDO S/MIME-Gateway - centrally used to automatically encrypt/decrypt mail - with the mail archive. Outgoing mail will be archived before encryption and incoming mail will be decrypted before being archived. Problem solved!
