SecureIT is an S/MIME extension to MIMEsweeper for SMTP's powerful, policy-based
content security engine. This helps to prevent damage from threats that
might be hidden in the content of encrypted e-mail.
SecureIT gives you transparent and easy to use policy based S/MIME signing
and encryption of e-mail at the gateway ensuring that:
Message content remains confidential during transmission over the
public network
Recipients can be certain about the authenticity and integrity of
messages they receive
How it works
Once an email is encrypted it can’t be analyzed for content security
threats. SecureIT and MIMEsweeper for SMTP can work together with your
policy, to scan every confidential message for security threats before
encrypting and decrypting.
SecureIT provides encryption/decryption and signing/signature verification
to S/MIME standards at the gateway. This avoids the high cost, complexity
and security pitfalls associated with desktop solutions.
SecureIT automates the process for establishing and maintaining links
to other S/MIME gateways. This guarantees security policy is always applied
and makes the set up and operation of links transparent to end users and
administrators.
Because SecureIT is integrated with MIMEsweeper for SMTP, lexical analysis
can be used to trigger S/MIME encryption and signing policy.
