Engate Empowers Technology Vendors to Differentiate

The Engate Anti-Spam Global Partner Program is customized for software and hardware companies who aim to augment their product portfolio and security strategy with a deeper layer of network level protection. The main objective of the technology program is to help vendors integrate unique network profiling anti-spam functionality into their product offerings that will deliver enhanced value to their service providers, enterprise and small to mid-size business customers. The Partner Program delivers the assistance and support needed to maximize the impact and value of network layer anti-spam security.

Engate's patented network profiling approach gives OEMs an immediate response to compromised hosts and new botnets the instant they emerge, ensuring preemptive and instant protection against any creative tactic that may arise now or in the future. Engate profiles entire offending networks to detect protocol fraud and determines the legitimacy of a sender's message before transmission to the private network by uniquely segregating legitimate mail servers from all other network hosts. This unique network profiling approach enables vendors to proactively identify and block spam and malicious payloads outside the customer's network with 99% accuracy -- resulting in significant savings in storage and bandwidth as well as increased efficiency in throughput and latency.
