Anonymous writes "Leading local IT service provider, Active Technology has launched a new cost effective product, which will help any business to eradicate almost all unwanted emails.

Starting at just over £2.00 per user, per month, the new email security package, known as e-Gateway, will intercept all unwanted emails before they reach the intended recipient. This means that companies will be far safer from the risk of viruses, time-wasting spam mailings and disturbing and illegal pornography.



Recent legislation changes have made companies and their directors responsible for content sent via email, dramatically increasing the need to ensure that only legitimate information is circulated on company networks.

The package works by routing all of a company’s incoming email via Active Technology’s own powerful servers, where email is automatically scanned for spam, pornography and most importantly, viruses. Suspect email is kept in a secure space for periodic viewing, and all clean email immediately forwarded onto its original destination.

This will not only virtually remove the risk of viral infection for a company’s IT system, but also free up their servers of unwanted large files, often trafficked by spam mail, which is currently accounting for a massive 70% of all email traffic.

The e-Gateway package will not only scan all incoming emails, but also those which are outgoing, ensuring that companies which subscribe to the package never accidentally infect their clients and customers with their email communications.

To avoid disruption to users, the package has been designed to be easily integrated within their existing electronic mail systems, or simply installed as a stand-alone system itself.

“We are always looking for ways in which we can help to strengthen the IT systems of our clients, and this new package will provide peace of mind for all of its users,” explains Active Technology technical director, Darran Hamer.

“Security is the main function of the package, but when designing it, we were also aware of the value of not exposing SME employees to enticing, time- wasting emails and the potentially damaging allure of pornographic spam.”
