NetLink Adds Security Features to E-Mail Service

NetLink IT have added some new security features to their e-mail service. Some of these include local virus scanning and detection of phishing mail.

File attachments are now scanned by server-side software for virus signatures and automatically quarantined if viruses or harmful attachments are detected. Dangerous attachments are stored in quarantine for a certain period of time before automatically deleted.

E-mails will also be scanned for harmful HTML or script. Forms, i-frames and image bugs are automatically disarmed before the mail reaches the user's inbox. Mail is also scanned for phishing attempts and users will be warned not to open any suspicious website addresses which claim to be ones belonging to banks or known services such as PayPal and eBay.
