Email Security Just Got More Interesting - Modus(TM) 4.7 - Vircom Partners with PGP to Provide Encryption for Sensitive Data
MONTREAL, June 18 / / - Vircom, an award-winning e-mail messaging security software company, has released a new version of their modus line of products. New technology has been added to reduce both spam and false-positives, both issues that can lead to considerable end-user productivity loss. And with new legislation that calls for mandatory data encryption of all personal information being implemented in several jurisdictions, Vircom's integration with PGP Universal Gateway is key to being compliant with laws that affect business conduct.
"We are pleased with our new partnership. There are several benefits for our customers" stated Jean-Marc Robillard, director of product management. "they can purchase the integrated package through their channel sales representative, or leverage their existing PGP encryption gateway if they already have it, to centralize all their encryption requirements."
With this new release, Vircom is also adding backscatter spam protection, a redesigned end-user quarantine report that decreases junk mail management overhead, and auto whitelisting, which ensures messages from trusted users never becomes improperly categorized as spam, or false-positives.
Jean-Marc added "Since spam levels continue to rise worldwide, we've added foreign language support for our Sieve scripting engine, which controls email policies, as well as optimized protection from blended threats such as web url script injections"
"Our reputation for being the leaders at what we do continues to grow" said Mike Petsalis, COO "Our customer satisfaction rankings are consistently the highest, and our PlatinumPlus remote monitoring service has become a leading differentiator. It allows customers to offload their network monitoring to Vircom, while they maintain direct control over their site-specific settings"
