Multi-tier Email Security: The Need for Defense-in-depth

Responding to today?s email challenges requires a multi-faceted approach: one that addresses protecting the perimeter while simultaneously protecting internal corporate mail systems. Defending one but not the other is akin to locking the car doors and leaving the windows open. A multi-tier approach to securing the email infrastructure is needed not only to stop spam, viruses, and phishing attacks, but also to prevent unauthorized content from being transferred to the wrong hands, both inside and outside of the corporate walls. This white paper reviews the evolution of challenges facing email today and demonstrates ways in which email affects network security and business risk. The importance of implementing a multi-tier defense-in-depth approach to email security is outlined in detail along with guidance in choosing the right perimeter and mail server defenses.

RescueTime review

Here's a question most of us can probably answer, at least approximately: How many hours do you spend in front of your computer every week? But here's a trickier one: How much of that time do you spend doing productive work, and how much of it do you spend watching cat videos?
