SecureData Africa, part of JSE-listed SecureData Holdings, the sole sub-Saharan distributor for Trend Micro, a global leader in Internet content security, has now released the latter's security software for all 64-bit IBM Lotus Domino platforms, including the new IBM System z platform.
“The comprehensive ScanMail Suite delivers anti-spam, anti-malware, Web threat protection and content filtering to prevent data theft and loss,” commented Lee Bristow, Product Manager at SecureData for Trend Micro products.
Specifically designed as a native Lotus Domino server application, ScanMail enables easy and intuitive management and is optimised for high-performance scanning and now includes support for 64-bit IBM Lotus Domino for Linux on System z as well as Windows and AIX. This new addition now makes Trend Micro the only vendor to support all current 64-bit Domino platforms.”
“The release of ScanMail v5 for Lotus Domino for Linux on IBM System z allows Trend Micro to exploit the world's fastest chip technology on the IBM zEnterprise System, thus helping customers achieve unrivalled reliability, security and manageability for their multi-OS data centres," added Bristow.
"Furthermore, since Lotus Domino, ScanMail and IBM System z all support multiple operating environments, heterogeneity of data centres no longer stands in the way of dramatic consolidation and cost reduction, a key objective of some of our large enterprise customers."
“With the Trend Micro Smart Protection Network infrastructure, customers get faster, more effective protection against the latest e-mail threats, including those containing malicious URLs, a phenomena that now far outweighs those with malicious attachments,” concluded Bristow. “With one of the largest cloud-based domain-reputation databases in the world, Trend Micro tracks the credibility of Web domains and IP addresses by assigning a reputation score based on factors such as a Web site's age, IP e-mail sending behaviour, historical location changes, and indications of suspicious activities discovered through behaviour analysis. That rating is immediately accessible to ScanMail products, enabling messages with links to malicious URLs to be immediately blocked. This latest release is another example of Trend Micro providing the latest technologies on new platforms as and when they are released.”
