Proven anti-spam technology
Detect and block more than 99
percent of spam, including the latest
image, PDF, and MP3 spam attacks,
with no critical false positives (as
measured by third-party tests).
Streaming updates every two to three
minutes quickly shut down new forms
of spam.
Anti-spam effectiveness is achieved
through a combination of
technologies that include
•
IP reputation ltering
•
Domain-name reputation scoring
•
Heuristic detection
•
Content ltering
•
Sender authentication based on the
Sender Policy Framework (SPF) and
DomainKeys Identied Mail (DKIM)
standards
•
Greylisting, which tracks and allows
mail from known legitimate senders
to pass while temporarily rejecting
unknown senders
Meeting the enterprise needs,
both large and small
McAfee offers both the M3-class and
M7-class blade enclosures (also known
as the c3000 and c7000).
The smaller M3-class, or “shorty,” with
eight-blade capacity, extends the
benets of the blade architecture to
a broader range of enterprises and
data centers large and small. The M7
enclosure, with 16-blade capacity,
continues to be the ideal enclosure for
larger data centers.
