The combination of security products from Rainbow and CipherTrust provides
organizations of all sizes with a new standard for securing e-mail systems and
transactions.
CryptoSwift, the industry’s leading PCI-based SSL accelerator according to
IDC, will bolster the strong security built into IronMail, which combines five
components of protection in one appliance to ensure complete security of
e-mail systems. CryptoSwift will accelerate Secure Socket Layer (SSL)
security protocols for e-mail transactions resulting in improved performance.
IronMail is the first security appliance for email systems. While
firewalls provide solid perimeter security, they allow e-mail to travel in and
out of the corporate enterprise with little to no scrutiny. Hackers can use
this vulnerability to attack e-mail servers or compromise other Intranet
infrastructure servers. IronMail augments the existing firewall technology
and adds a layer of security specific for corporate e-mail.
When you add security to critical systems, you typically slow down
network traffic, so the performance and security enhancements CryptoSwift
provides to IronMail is an exceptional value-add for our customers, said
Steve Raber, president and COO, CipherTrust. E-mail transactions need the
same security approach as a B2B financial transaction. Rainbow has secured
more eCommerce transactions than any other company in the industry. We’re
pleased to have them as a partner.
IronMail is an ideal solution for the expanding problem of application-
level attacks targeted at an organization’s email systems, said Shawn Abbott,
president, Rainbow eSecurity. It is an effective solution for protecting
confidential corporate information while preventing Trojan horses and denial
of service attacks. We’re pleased to offer CryptoSwift as a means of speeding
secure e-mail through the IronMail appliance.
