MessageGate Launches Email Governance Platform Version 4.3

MessageGate has unveiled version 4.3 of its email governance platform, delivering enhanced email governance controls for companies needing to better manage email into, out of, and across the enterprise. The version upgrade also eases IT department migration pressures by delivering key Microsoft Exchange 2007 features within Exchange 2003 environments.

MessageGate conducted extensive customer and market research to ensure its version 4.3 captures top email governance requirements while fulfilling compliance and security concerns. Among the new features found within the upgrade are the MessageGate Exchange Adapter for IIS and enhanced performance within the Message Analysis Server.

The MessageGate Adapter for IIS allows seamless integration with Microsoft Exchange environments, enabling the email governance platform to monitor and control internal message flow traveling between users within the same Exchange network. The adaptor can operate in both Perimeter and Exchange modes. Perimeter mode is typically deployed on the perimeter of the network, allowing the governance platform to monitor messages received by the IIS service. Exchange mode monitors messages sent by users on the Exchange server associated with the IIS server.

MessageGate version 4.3 eases Exchange 2007 migration pressure. IT departments benefit from many of the same capabilities delivered by Exchange 2007 transport rules without having to transition from Exchange 2003. Once the transition to Exchange 2007 is made, the advanced, and more robust, policy capabilities provided by MessageGate can be used to strengthen transport rules. For example, content and contextual search functionality has been enhanced to include multiple functions for improved searches within email attachments. This speeds the search and retrieval process, which is critical to meeting tight e-discovery deadlines imposed by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Exchange 2007 transport rules do not include this capability.

The Message Analysis Server boosts performance and speed by up to 200 percent. This performance boost increases efficiency for email governance policy application, message classification and retrieval. The result is faster email management processes and less network bandwidth bottlenecks.
