Introduction

 

Provided you have the necessary licenses, you can enable the protection for Exchange Server from your Web console, and apply it to any Exchange servers that you are managing.

The protection for Exchange Server includes four protection modules: Antivirus, Anti-spam, Content filtering and Quarantine.

 

Antivirus

Scans for viruses, hacking tools and suspicious/potentially unwanted programs sent to the Exchange Server mailboxes. Additionally, it monitors access to the Exchange Server mailboxes and public folders.

For more information about this protection, refer to the Exchange Server antivirus protection section.

 

Anti-spam

This module detects and neutralizes spam.

For more information, refer to the Exchange Server anti-spam protection section.

 

Content filtering

This module lets you filter email messages based on the extension of the attached files.

For more information, refer to the Exchange Server content filtering protection section.

 

Quarantine

For messages restored from quarantine to reach the relevant recipient, you need to enter the data of the SMTP server that will send the message.

If the SMTP server requires authentication, you will also have to enter the necessary credentials. Use the corresponding fields.
