Panda Software Teams up with NetIQ MailMarshal to Protect SMTP Traffic from Viruses

Panda Software’s virus scan engine integrates perfectly with the NetIQ MailMarshal solution for screening SMTP traffic. This is one of the most widely-used applications for implementing security policies for the use of e-mail in businesses and corporations. However, NetIQ MailMarshal can become even more effective when combined with an Internet gateway antivirus.

After exhaustive tests carried out by Panda Software’s QA technicians, the company has confirmed that its antivirus engine detects and eliminates any viruses hidden in the SMTP traffic scanned by NetIQ MailMarshal. This makes Panda’s advanced in-house antivirus technology the ideal compliment to MailMarshal’s security solution.

By using NetIQ MailMarshal in combination with Panda Software’s search engine, corporate network security is greatly enhanced:

– The installation of both solutions creates a proactive defense line for network perimeters.
– Viruses are blocked before reaching mail or file servers.
– Corporate security policy can be defined much more precisely using both of these solutions.
– Panda Software’s daily automatic updates ensure that your network is always protected against all types of viruses, including new and unknown malicious code.
