      Sophos, in its latest release of PureMessage for Microsoft Exchange, sports added simplified management features and enhanced data leak prevention.

      PureMessage for Microsoft Exchange 3.0 features several advances on the previous version, including

      • Support for Microsoft Exchange 2007 and the 64-bit version of Windows Server 2003
      • The ability to monitor and manage multiple PureMessage instances from a single console
      • A new report creation tool with enhanced graphical charts and 25 management reports.

      In addition, the release includes integration with Active Directory for use within e-mail policy and the ability to apply a specific e-mail policy to inbound, outbound and internal e-mail. Top of IT management minds, these configuration options could be used to quarantine outbound messages that might contain business-sensitive data, Sophos officials said.

      “E-mail is not just a vector for cyber criminals looking to infect corporate networks with malware—inappropriate use of business e-mail can drain network resources, impact staff productivity or result in data leakage,” said John Stringer, product manager at Sophos in a statement. “Sophos PureMessage gives system administrators unprecendented control of their e-mail systems to protect companies against e-mail-borne attacks, wasted resource and data leaks.”

      Sophos will launch its own “SXL” real time spam rule update system in October, using DNS (Domain Name System) to update spam rules based upon the customers e-mail traffic and provide a much larger corpus of spam rules than static spam rule updates, said Graham Cluley, senior technology consultant at Sophos. Small, delta-based spam rule updates are sent every five minutes rather than every hour as they were previously.

      PureMessage 3.0 also features support for all the main clustering models for Microsoft Exchange, as well as a new security dashboard that provides an overview of the status of each server.
