Spam & Virus Protection
It's Your Business - Protect It
BlueTie offers you business class email with spam and virus protection that provides effective filtering so you receive the messsages you want and none that you don't. Plus, our virus protection gives you peace of mind that your inbox will remain free from troublesome and potentially damaging computer viruses.
Comprehensive Spam and Virus Protection
BlueTie uses industry-leading anti-spam and anti-phishing techniques to protect every account. On the server side, BlueTie uses a variety of spam filtering tools, including multiple Real-Time Blackhole List look-ups, relay blocking, header inspection, and an advanced heuristics engine. At the individual account level, users can maintain their own "safe" and "block" lists to further protect their inbox and to individually define senders as either "good" or "bad".
BlueTie performs server-side virus scanning to scan each message before it reaches the inbox. If a message contains a parasitic virus that can be removed, our system will attempt to clean it. Trojan horse viruses are stripped, and users receive a clean message. Our virus definitions are updated hourly to guard against new threats.
Extra Protection for Critical or Confidential Material
BlueTie users can also enjoy the ability to send encrypted files. SecureSendTM, BlueTie's encrypted file transfer feature, lets users send files of up to 100MB with complete confidence, knowing that their confidential data will remain secure. SecureSend uses both asynchronous 128-bit triple-DES and sychronous AES encryption to ensure safe delivery of critical data.
