Fast, easy installation supporting multiple e-mail cients – Cloudmark DesktopOne installs in seconds and detects existing e-mail accounts on the computer automatically so that filtering can begin right away.

Accurate, real-time protection against new threats – The solution adapts to messaging threats and automatically provides protection within moments of their emergence.
