Whether it is your personal or office email address, one of the most frustrating things about e-communication can be ‘spam’ emails that are trying to sell you unwanted products. These scam emails can also have a detrimental effect on your computer, as often they contain viruses or can lead to your email address sending out further spams.
For businesses, one way of trying to ensure against unwanted emails is to include a Secure Mail Gateway (SMG) as part of your business IT support.
An SMG delivers emails via a data centre rather than straight to your computer, which allows the message to be detected for viruses before being sent to your company server. It can even be used to scan outbound email.
It is also a cost-effective business IT support system because all you need to do is pay a license fee – if you employ a third party to look after your technology needs then you’ll need no more hardware or software installing, and that company will take care of the maintenance of your Secure Mail Gateway.
At Medhurst IT, we can build SMG into your business IT support package in order to significantly reduce the amount of spam you are likely to receive. We will handle the ongoing running of the service and install regular updates to ensure you have the most efficient version of the gateway. We can also offer you several options on what happens to this junk mail – it can be deleted immediately or you can receive it with a tag. We can offer business IT support from Southampton to Manchester and other areas of England.
