Comprehensive protection: Forefront Security for Exchange Server provides multiple antivirus scan engines at multiple layers throughout the e-mail infrastructure to deliver maximum threat protection. • Protection against the latest viruses. Multiple scan engines provide better protection against threats. If one engine fails or goes offline to update, other engines continue to scan without interrupting mail delivery. IT administrators can apply up to five scan engines at once at Transport and Store servers. • Protection against spam. Forefront Security for Exchange Server provides the rights to enable the premium antispam services of Exchange 2007, including the Microsoft IP Reputation Service, IMF (content filter) signatures, and antispam signatures, and keeps them updated multiple times each day. • Protection against new and hidden threats. Forefront Security for Exchange Server includes heuristics technologies that detect malicious code based on behavioral characteristics. It also has configurable file filtering rules that help businesses block file types that are known for carrying viruses (for example, .exe). Optimized performance: Through deep integration with Exchange Server, scanning innovations, and performance controls, Forefront Security for Exchange Server helps protect messaging environments while maintaining uptime and optimizing server performance. • Elimination of redundant scanning. Exchange Server 2007 provides a secure antivirus header stamp that Forefront Security for Exchange Server attaches to each e-mail as it is first scanned at the Edge or Hub. The mail never needs to be scanned again, saving processing load at the Hub and Store. • Incremental background scanning. IT can protect the mail Store with less server overhead by scanning only messages that are most likely to be infected, such as those that are a few days old or that carry attachments. • Performance controls. IT groups can use in-memory and multi-threaded scanning and can leverage how many engines are used for a given scan job for greater flexibility and control over security and server performance. Simplified management: Forefront Security for Exchange Server enables administrators to easily manage product configuration and operation, automated scan engine signature updates, and reporting at the server and enterprise level. • Forefront Server Security Administrator. This built-in management console enables administrators to fully configure Forefront Security for Exchange Server locally or remotely. • Centralized Web-based console. Forefront Security for Exchange Server works with Microsoft® ForefrontTM Server Security Management Console*, which provides central configuration, deployment, and updating for all Forefront server security products. • One-stop, automated updates. Microsoft monitors its antivirus vendors for new signatures and engine updates, tests them against a virus database, and then confirms and posts them for automatic download by Forefront Security for SharePoint or Forefront Server Security Management Console. • Integrated monitoring. The solution supports a management pack for Microsoft Operations Manager (MOM)**, so IT can include Forefront Security for Exchange Server system information in broader corporate management practices. *Forefront Server Security Management Console is expected to be available for beta testing by early 2007. **The Forefront Security for Exchange Server Management Pack for MOM is expected to be available in late 2006 or early 2007.
