IT professionals and key decision-makers in an organization's IT security department are trusted with the responsibility of managing and securing all components of the network, assessing the level of risk systems are exposed to and ensuring that not only are the identified vulnerabilities reinforced, but also that the potential for future risk is minimized. These are crucial network-wide responsibilities that apply equally to all email systems.

Knowing which solution is right for your email needs means asking a simple question:


How important is email to your organization?

For many enterprises, email communication is at the center of numerous business processes. In most cases, email reaches from the bottom to the very top of the organization's hierarchy. But because of the sheer volume of unsolicited email polluting the Internet today, among which serious threats such as fraudulent emails, phishing attempts, viruses, spyware-inducing Trojans, spam and so much more, there has been a shift in the perception of email from a convenient means of communication to a vehicle for distributing/receiving malware and unlawfully accessing protected information. Email threats and unmanageable email systems are one of the most tangible security issues affecting all levels of an organization today. Rather than feeling confident and connected, many users are fearful of what lies inside their mailboxes and therefore hesitate to use email.

So how important is email to your organization? In most likelihood, it is crucial.

Modus solutions protect the value of email

Modus is Vircom's secure email management technology. Its holistic approach to email encompasses both security and management capabilities. Why is it important to implement a solution that addresses both aspects? Simply because it's impractical and virtually impossible to independently protect and manage the full functionality of email.

Managed email security is not only about quashing the problem of spam - anti-spam capability is but one benefit of Modus. The philosophy behind Modus is to reinstate user trust in email and restore efficiency in this means of communication. And Modus does this by ensuring the integrity of email communication while acting as a reliable tool for efficient email management.



Benefits of Modus

Modus technology offers the assurance of relevant and reliable capabilities that will grow with a company. This is an overall benefit that every company should be after.

Holistic philosophy

Some other email security technologies on the market today are designed only to eliminate spam - but spam is just one issue that interferes with the smooth functioning of an enterprise's email system. Email systems are made up of a variety of interrelated components that require management, customization and monitoring. This is why Modus treats email communication with a holistic approach.

Broad scope of protection

With every version of Modus, Vircom broadens its scope of secure email management. Today, Modus not only treats emails at the network perimeter and on the server, but it also encrypts the channel of communication between a sender and the recipient's mail server. This extended level of protection is crucial for hyper-secure environments like the healthcare industry.

Self-managed email system

The extensive activities performed by an advanced solution like Modus should go unnoticed by email users. Secure email management functionality should enhance, not hinder, daily email use.

With Modus, email users needn't concern themselves with managing their quarantines, viewing alerts or dealing with influxes of spam and viruses. Most users just want to send and receive email with confidence, and with Modus they can.
