Original Press Release:
Infocrossing Introduces iConnection 6.0 Managed Messaging Service
Fully integrated policy-based service to address all requirements around messaging environment
LEONIA, N.J., Sept. 25 /-- Infocrossing, Inc. (NASDAQ:IFOX), a leading provider of IT infrastructure, enterprise application and business process outsourcing services, announced today the introduction of iConnection 6.0, the first fully integrated service to address all the requirements for managing a corporate messaging system. iConnection 6.0 incorporates message filtering, secure messaging, archiving, compliance, electronic discovery and disaster recovery into a single service that enables organizations to control all aspects of their messaging environment from security to administration and storage with a single, comprehensive, policy-based solution.
Infocrossing iConnection is delivered as a fully managed service that is hosted in Infocrossing's world-class data centers and is administered by clients through a robust web portal for creating policies and generating reports. Clients can purchase iConnection as a fully bundled service or choose one component and add others as needed. The service is priced on a subscription basis according to the number of mailboxes activated, components selected and the amount of storage consumed.
"Infocrossing's iConnection service provides us with the core anti-spam, anti-virus, compliance and archiving services necessary to manage our 400-mailbox environment," said April Robinson, Network Manager at Bernardin, Lochmueller & Associates, an Evansville, IL-based engineering firm that participated in an extensive six month trial of the service. "iConnection solved our issues around policy, archiving and security for email."
A comprehensive, policy-driven solution
Infocrossing's iConnection 6.0 service is comprised of six tightly-integrated services packaged into a single offering, and requires no hardware or software to install or manage. The services include:
o Message Hygiene -- Using multiple layers of threat detection -- including use of the latest pattern and image analysis -- iConnection blocks spam, viruses and explicit content from entering the clients' business and monitors outbound messages for security breaches and inappropriate email usage.
o Secure Messaging -- Delivery of outgoing messages is secured by users or managed by customizable, corporate-wide policy. Messages can be delivered securely via TLS (Transport Layer Security), SMTP over SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) or HTTPS Web delivery.
o Message Archiving and Electronic Delivery -- From end-users seeking archived email, to legal departments working investigations, clients will find iConnection a powerful and effective solution for quickly retrieving the messages they need. Every email is fully indexed before being archived, providing unparalleled control, flexible search roles and permissions, and enhanced user productivity.
o Email Compliance -- iConnection helps mitigate risk by reviewing messages for specific content and archiving them for the required lengths of time. The system is unique in its ability to create multiple review queues and designate any number of compliance reviewers for those queues. Users benefit from reduced storage costs, management of inappropriate incoming and outgoing email usage, ease of compliance reporting and avoidance of fines or other penalties -- all in an auditable, tamper-proof system.
o Message Availability -- iConnection's "always on" commitment to availability is a simple insurance policy that makes a big difference. iConnection provides 99.999 percent availability with access to all historical and real-time email thanks to the power of Infocrossing's secure and redundant infrastructure.
o Hosted Exchange -- iConnection delivers Exchange software as a service globally with 24x7 access to professional technical expertise, a fully redundant high-bandwidth architecture, and hardened security and spam control at the mailbox, server and gateway level.
"iConnection is the first solution to truly bring all of the required messaging components, from archiving to secure mail, email hygiene, mailbox and PDA support, together under one common policy engine. Organizations that are overwhelmed by the constantly evolving complexity of messaging -- such as compliance, retention, security and best practices for email management -- should find iConnection a welcome relief," says Michael Osterman, president of Osterman Research, Inc., an analyst firm that covers developments in the messaging industry.
"The availability of iConnection 6.0 marks an important change in the messaging industry," stated Michael Wilczak, Senior Vice President of Strategy and Development for Infocrossing. "Most companies have a complex set of requirements for securing, storing, reporting and retrieving their electronic communications, and administrators are often left with the daunting task of weaving together multiple solutions to address their company's unique needs. iConnection 6.0 was specifically designed to provide administrators with the ability to manage all of their messaging requirements through one centralized system that is delivered as a service. The result is less complexity and cost in deploying a message management solution, and greater flexibility to adapt to evolving requirements," Mr. Wilczak concluded.
