PivotStor EP Series

Three Powerful, Integrated Solutions in One Easy-to-Use Appliance
The PivotStor EP Series email management appliances take control of every email at the moment it arrives at the gateway.

1) EP-Filter: Intelligent filters create a spam-free environment
Before allowing any information to pass through to the end user, EP-Filter engages its multiple, customizable filters and policy engines to block known spam and check for viruses. The automation of this critical task saves the organization as much as five seconds per email, and given the ever-increasing volume of malicious or undesirable communications, the savings could equate to dozens of daily man-hours.

If an incoming email has been sent by an unknown source, EP-Filter automatically responds to the sender with a short challenge message a simple request for confirmation that at once defeats autobots and, in the event that the sender is legitimate, offers a branded marketing tool for the organization.

2) EP-Archive: Definable and centralized policies for total information protection
Once it has been filtered, email enters the system and is then subject to the centralized policies of the EP-Archive storage engine. Its customizable rules can be tuned to match the organizations business needs.

If the email or its attachments are duplicates, EP-Archive automatically tags it as a single instance, which serves to reduce storage drain. The email is then fully indexed for easy search and retrieval by end users. And thanks to the sophistication of the EP-Archive software, archived data can be retrieved in minutes, not hours or days. This feature is particularly important in cases with legal ramifications.

3) EP-Encrypt: Protect information using automatic, definable encryption policies
All information in the archive can then be processed by the EP-Encrypt security engine, which rigorously applies Strong Encryption and digital signatures to all information. This ensures the integrity of the archived information and demonstrates that no data tampering has occurred (a key requirement in legal discovery).

The EP-Encrypt security engine also delivers strict and complete protection of valuable intellectual property and information. Users can elect to encrypt and sign emails and attachments so they are sent and received by necessary external parties without compromising security or privacy.
