Titan IT, IntelliReach deliver integrated e-mail defence for South African market

Titan IT to distribute MessageScreen appliance to eliminate spam, viruses and pornography from networks.
Johannesburg, 05 Apr 2004

IntelliReach Corporation, a market leader in integrated compliance, security and management solutions for corporate messaging environments, announced today that Titan IT, a leading provider of intelligent IT solutions, will resell its MessageScreen anti-spam/anti-virus appliance in the South African market.

MessageScreen is an advanced spam, virus and explicit image filtering solution that integrates Sophos` award-winning virus detection engine into MessageScreen`s sophisticated multi-level e-mail protection. MessageScreen is an appliance-based defence mechanism that uses a hardened operating system that makes it simple to maintain and invulnerable to attack while it resides outside the corporate firewall.

"Many local companies require anti-spam software to ensure unsolicited e-mail does not find its way into employee mailboxes yet they face the risk of mission-critical or business-related e-mail being blocked," commented Michael Yates, MD of Titan IT.

"For the first time true third-generation spam and virus protection is available to organisations in SA. MessageScreen provides users with management tools to monitor `quarantined` messages and check if legitimate business e-mails have been isolated."

"Today`s spammer is much more technically astute and is able to circumvent most common anti-spam defences," commented Sam Levine, president and CEO of IntelliReach. "Also, the very nature of spam has changed, in that it is now a launch platform for viruses, such as the MyDoom virus. Now, we are going after spammers the same way that we handle hackers. Stopping spam, viruses and porn at the gateway - before it enters the network - is the surest method to defeat this new threat and preserve the integrity of the messaging environment."

MessageScreen is a sophisticated content filtering solution that acts as a messaging firewall, providing e-mail security for Microsoft Exchange, Novell GroupWise, Lotus Notes and Sendmail. It helps organisations fight and reduce the growing Internet messaging problem - unsolicited, objectionable and destructive e-mail, while producing zero false positives.
