For email administrators working to ensure regulatory
compliance, IronPort's email security appliances provide a
powerful and flexible infrastructure for policy enforcement. The
IronPort appliances protect internal servers from attacks, and
enable organizations to comply with HIPAA, GLB, SOX, and other
regulatory compliance laws by applying filtering, encryption,
and archiving policies on incoming and/or outgoing messages.

Accurately and easily secure your outbound
email
IronPort's Compliance Filters - Simple and Effective
The IronPort Compliance Filters™ use a unique multi-category
pattern-matching algorithm to significantly reduce false
positives. For example, HIPAA does not require a message to be
blocked simply because it contains a medical condition or drug
code. However, if the message correlates this medical
information to a particular individual, then there is enough
evidence to block this message or take some other remedial
action. In addition to accurately identifying confidential
information, the lightweight IronPort Compliance Filters scan
emails very quickly, ensuring that there is no delay in email
communications. The same IronPort appliance that handles
outgoing email delivery can perform all email filtering
operations.
IronPort's email security appliances integrate these critical
features to offer customers a turnkey solution for email
compliance:
- Comprehensive Policy Management - Manage all
content security policies using a single GUI dashboard.
- Workflow Integration - Easily implement
remediation policies with customizable notifications and
role-based access for compliance quarantines.
- Centralized Reporting and Logging - Generate
reports for unprecedented mail flow visibility. Instantly
track messages for compliance audits.
- Email Encryption - High-performance TLS
encryption for business partner communication. Integration
with best-of-breed vendors like PostX for flexible
deployment options.
Protection of sensitive information and verification of
user identity:
Industry leading encryption technology enables IronPort users
to comply with regulatory requirements related to the securing
of health and financial information. IronPort's secure email
delivery solution seamlessly encrypts, decrypts, and digitally
signs confidential email messages. IronPort's integration with
encryption partners (Authentica, PGP Corporation, PostX, and
Sigaba) provides a unified solution for enforcing granular
encryption policies, and guarantees message signing (sender and
recipient verification) and integrity while protecting messages
stored on servers.
Content scanning and filtering for email policy
enforcement:
Content scanning enables organizations to effectively monitor
messages for sensitive information. The IronPort content
scanning engine contains pre-defined content filters for HIPAA,
GLB, and other regulations. The engine automatically scans email
for protected financial and health information and its easily
extensible lexicons allow administrators to customize these
rules to meet specific requirements. IronPort's content scanning
engine filters messages based on message or attachment content,
subject, sender, recipient, message headers, or message body.
Archiving:
To ensure messages are properly preserved, indexed, and
accessible, archiving is a critical component of the vast
majority of compliance programs. Through the use of open
standards, and partnerships with leading vendors such as Veritas,
IronPort helps users ensure email records are secured and stored
properly.
Enterprise management tools including monitoring and
reporting:
To support policy management and auditability, IronPort Mail
Flow Monitor™ and Mail Flow Central™ provide complete real-time
visibility into email traffic. Detailed logs and reports
identify messages that trigger specific policy rules and track
the actions taken on these messages. Additionally, this
information is maintained under change control, which provides
the kind of auditability called for in email related
regulations. |
