FortiGuard Anti-Spam Service for FortiGate 1000 - 1 Year

With the heavy reliance on email for corporate communications, the ability to keep email servers running smoothly and spam free is becoming mission critical. The volume of spam is increasing globally year over year and Gartner estimates that 60 to 70% of all enterprise email received is now spam; a 300% annual growth of spam email from 2003 to 2004. Fortinet's FortiGuard-Antispam Service helps reduce the amount of "obvious spam" at the network perimeter and can be enabled on the FortiGate Antivirus Firewall or the FortiMail Secure Messaging Platform. To increase detection rates, FortiGuard-Antispam uses a "dual scan" technology to quickly identify, tag, or block obvious spam messages.

Enabling the FortiGuard-Antispam Service on FortiGate or FortiMail systems can dramatically reduce the amount of spam messages that corporate email servers have to process. Enabling FortiGuard-Antispam is very simple too, requiring no maintenance or updating on the customer's part. And no additional hardware is required making the solution extremely cost effective for all businesses.

FortiGuard-Antispam Service offers:

• Antispam algorithms that look deep into the header and message of each email message to detect spam content
• Flexible antispam filtering policies for each interface, department, or group
• Low total cost of ownership
