Cisco Ironport Email Security Appliances
Ironport
Mailflow Central provides administrators a single place to track the
status of any email message that has traversed through any of the IronPort
appliances. You can use Mail Flow Central to generate, archive, and
deliver scheduled email security reports for your organization.
The system automatically updates in near real-time, essentially eliminating the need to rely on cumbersome log files. A call to your help desk to find a lost message can be resolved quickly and decisively by identifying where a message is. No matter how many IronPort systems you have, Mail Flow Central can consolidate reporting information and provide insight across your entire email infrastructure.
Auditing email messages is easy with IronPort Mail Flow Central's graphical interface.
Features
Message Tracking
-
Complete searching capabilities allow you to find a message based on the sender, recipient, subject header, message ID (either SMTP or IronPort's), time of delivery, or the specific IronPort appliance it went through.
-
Full historical detail is provided when you find the message you are looking for. See complete information about the message and its delivery, including the IP address and reputation score of the sending system, all of the scanning verdicts by spam, virus, and compliance filters, Outbreak Quarantine actions, and the final delivery status.
Centralized Reporting
-
Regularly scheduled reports can be configured for delivery over email or archived to the local system. Reports are available in HTML, Text, or CSV format and can be generated on-demand.
-
18 individual reports answer your most important questions about who gets the most spam, viruses, and clean mail in your organization, which external domains you communicate with the most, what viruses have been blocked from your network, recent virus outbreak activity, and the effectiveness of your message content filters.
Management
-
Automatic data management means not having to worry about transferring and storing log files. Mail Flow Central will automatically download, import, and archive old log files based on your retention settings.
-
Help desk accounts for both message tracking and report retrieval. Create individual accounts for each email operator and provide them with only the access you want them to have.
-
Flexible deployment is enabled by IronPort Mail Flow Central because it sits within your network and securely collects information from your IronPort email security appliances. File transfers are handled using SCP to ensure communications are private. Multiple users can be created with different access privileges—allowing you to assign help desk staff and track message status without making changes to configuration.
