Norman Email Protection

Norman Email Protection 5.0

Norman Email Protection is a secure email management solution designed to not only shield networks from malware, spam, viruses and phishing attempts, but also deliver effective tools for managing legitimate messages and attachments residing on the network.

The new Policy Management add-on protects your organization against intentional or unintentional data leakage by email. It also provides traceability and tools to enforce your company policies.

With Norman Email Protection 5.0, Norman is introducing an enhanced Sender Reputation System. Norman determines IP reputation based on real-time activity. SRS servers are updated every 5 minutes, providing an instant reaction to new spam waves, infected computers, and cleaned hosts which have become botnet-free. These lightning fast reaction times mean SRS is the ideal counter-measure for modern botnets. SRS operates at the connection level and requires very few computing resources. Emails originating from bad reputation sources can be automatically rejected or quarantined.

Norman Email Protection’s optional Policy Management add-on is designed to help protect against data leakage of personal, financial or proprietary information through email and adds extra security to your e-mail security solution.

Seamlessly integrating with Microsoft® Exchange, Lotus® Domino® and other standards-based email servers, Norman Email Protection safeguards your email infrastructure from today’s growing security threats such as botnets, phishing attempts and image spam.

Proactive antivirus protection

Unique proactive technology to provide customers with the best possible protection against malicious software

This powerful and unmatched security solution utilizes Norman DNA Matching, Norman Exploit Detection and Norman SandBox®, the world renowned technology to protect businesses.

Norman SandBox® is a revolutionary way to detect new and unknown malware in a proactive way. It is a virtual environment where programs may perform in safe surroundings without interferring with the real processes, program files and network environment. If a program performs actions that the SandBox regards as suspicious, the program is "tagged" as a malicious program.

Norman DNA Matching is a proactive technology and method for identifying the viral profile of all kinds of malicious programs. Inherited or reused programming codes are recognized in new malware, providing unique protection against threats. New malware that looks like a mutation of a previously known malware, is most probably malware of the same family and identified as malicious by Norman DNA Matching.

Norman Exploit Detection is a technology for detecting malware exploiting vulnerabilities in widely used document types like, OLE2 (Office documents), MDB (Access), WMF (Windows Media File), JPEG (pictures), RIFF (Windows media meta-format) and SWF (Flash). The technology allows for more to be added whenever they are being abused by malware. Norman Exploit Detection does not depend of awareness and analysis of a particular vulnerability.
