Command & Control (C&C) Contact Alert Services

Command & Control (C&C) Contact Alert Services provides IMSS with enhanced detection and alert capabilities to mitigate the damage caused by advanced persistent threats and targeted attacks.

Smart Scan

Smart Scan facilitates a more efficient scanning process by offloading a large number of threat signatures previously stored on the IMSS server to the cloud.

Web Reputation enhancement

The Web Reputation filter has been enhanced to enable detection of URLs that have not been rated by Trend Micro. This functionality helps improve protection against advanced threats that leverage short-lived websites.

Advanced threat management

IMSS integrates with the Advanced Threat Scan Engine (ATSE) to detect probable advanced threats in message attachments. IMSS can send a copy of a message to Deep Discovery Advisor for further analysis after the message is handled.

Policy Objects

Several information objects that can be used by policies have been removed from policy creation and given their own areas for configuration:

Web Reputation

Protect your clients from malicious URLs embedded in email messages with Web reputation.

Supports 8 bit to 7 bit-MIME transformation

IMSS 7.0 Service Pack 1 supports the transformation of 8 bit to 7 bit-MIME according to the standard defined in RFC 1652 SMTP Service Extension for 8bit-MIME transport. In the event that the next hop of the SMTP server does not support 8 bit MIME, IMSS will convert the message from 8 bit MIME to 7 bit MIME.
