MX Logic® Virus and Worm Scanning:

• Overview
• Closer Look
• Features & Benefits

Destructive worms and viruses, transported through unsolicited email, are costing American businesses billions of dollars each year in lost productivity, IT drain, network bandwidth overload and general corporate clean-up efforts.

Keep your business image and network security protected with MX Logic Virus and Worm Scanning - an integral part of our comprehensive email defense solutions. Providing defense with diversity, our anti-virus and anti-worm techniques identify and block both known and unknown viruses, worms, and blended threats. Acting as the border patrol between the Internet and the business network, MX Logic Virus and Worm Scanning provides safe external filtering and customizable quarantine management.

With unique, morphing viruses and worms constantly threatening networks, simple desk-top solutions are no longer sufficient. Adding layered protection to existing desktop solutions is the key - and the reason MX Logic integrates its proprietary WormTraq® worm detection technology with signature-based anti-virus engines from Authentium®, McAfee® and Sophos®.

Layered protection forms foundation of MX Logic® Virus and Worm Scanning

MX Logic Virus and Worm Scanning is built on a multilayered network perimeter-platform that effectively keeps destructive messages out of your email environment. This layered combination of protection provides the strongest defense for business and service providers - even those already employing an on-premise virus software solution.

Proprietary worm detection technology is a critical layer of protection

Mass-mailing worms are becoming a formidable threat to the corporate network. With MX Logic's proprietary WormTraq® worm detection technology, organizations can feel confident that zero-hour mass-mailing worms will be identified and blocked before infiltrating their network.

Through sophisticated content behavior analysis, the MX Logic® Threat Center is able to quickly identify the common characteristics found in sudden surges of suspicious email messages and intercept the tainted email before damage ensues. We provide detection and protection often hours before anti-virus services can distribute signature updates to their customers.

Combining leading anti-virus engines for maximum protection

Traditional anti-virus engines are programmed differently to defend against today's unique and ever-changing virus and worms. Recognizing the limitations of using a single signature-based anti-virus engine, MX Logic offers comprehensive, 24x7 protection through a combination of industry-leading anti-virus engines - Authentium®, McAfee® and Sophos®.

During major virus outbreaks, this layered approach virtually eliminates the risk of infection because MX Logic can deploy the earliest-issued solutions from its three provider partners to protect its customers within minutes. For continuous defense against virus outbreaks, MX Logic secures updates from its anti-virus partners every five minutes

To help businesses increase network security and protect corporate integrity, MX Logic's comprehensive, network-perimeter email defense solutions include highly-effective, firm-wide virus and worm scanning. Our solutions detect, quarantine, block and strip viruses and worms at the network perimeter before they can enter and damage a customer's corporate messaging infrastructure.
