Prevent Malware Attacks
How it works
MessageLabs Email Anti-Virus service uses a combination of technologies to deliver an anti-virus solution
trusted by financial institutions and governments. First, to deal with known malware, perimeter defenses
deploy traffic and connection management to identify unwanted email from known sources, slow it down
and reject it. Then, unknown viruses are intercepted by our Skeptic™ technology. Finally, by following
links the service identifies virus-hiding URLs.
• All incoming emails are directed through the MessageLabs platform, hosted in secure data centers
worldwide
• Each message is scanned for all known and unknown viruses
• All URLs referenced in emails are checked for viruses
• A new signature is created whenever a suspicious link is confirmed as bad
• Any email infected with a virus or containing a bad link is blocked and quarantined, with sender and
recipient notified
