OTTAWA, Oct. 18 — Nemx Software has announced the first security product to protect Exchange servers from unwanted penetration and attacks from spam, viruses and hackers called Power Tools 5.0.

Power Tools 5.0 offers administrators additional layers of protection for their Exchange server by providing detection and preventive components. With the addition of new tools and functionalities to its anti-virus and secure content management offerings, Power Tools 5.0 tightens Exchange security by providing non-signature-based detection of new, unknown viruses and malware, and detection of various spoofing techniques used to provide non-delivery reports. Nemx's spam detection is further enhanced by the inclusion of a collaborative solution like Spam URL Real-Time Block Lists.

The tools enable offer a wide selection of filtering actions, including multiple actions for each e-mail — for instance, in a K12 school environment, staff receiving spam may have the offending message automatically moved to a subfolder, while the same message to a student would be deleted.

Power Tools 5.0 makes it possible to catch viruses and other malicious software before virus signatures have been released. This unique technology detects and stops the virus before any virus signature files are created for the specific threat, giving administrators the confidence to know that their Exchange server is protected.

The Advanced and Internet Editions of Power Tools for Exchange Server 5.0 is now commercially available. The product is priced starting at $999 (U.S.) for a 50-user licence, and $495 for the Internet Edition. Further pricing is dependent on the specific components selected and number of connectors and/or mailboxes.
