Kaspersky, company that offers award-winning antivirus and mobile security software, has recently announced that Kaspersky Security 8.0 for Microsoft Exchange Servers has been released to the public. The security software solution, as Kaspersky explained, offers a top notch level of malware and spam protection. Spam protection levels can go as high as 99%, said Kaspersky in a press release.

“With the inclusion of the fourth generation anti-spam engine, which contains advanced technologies for scanning on the basis of formal attributes, the solution's levels of detection of unwanted messages can reach as high as 99%, with a minimum of false positives. The new antivirus engine provides an increased level of malware detection, enhanced performance and operational stability of the application, along with reduced consumption of system resources,” said Kaspersky.

Keeping with the spam protection theme we’ve got going on here, it must be mentioned that messages are scanned using DNSBL lists of spammers' addresses and SURBL technology which detects spammer URLs in messages. Users of Kaspersky Security 8.0 for Microsoft Exchange Servers can set up white and black lists of senders' SMTP or IP addresses.

Kaspersky Security 8.0 for Microsoft Exchange Servers has been designed with the corporate environment in mind. Consequently Kaspersky Security 8.0 for Microsoft Exchange Servers can be run in a virtual environment, and administrators can easily manage Kaspersky Security 8.0 for Microsoft Exchange Servers via the Microsoft Management Console (MMC).

“Modern corporate networks are complex heterogeneous environments and their efficient protection requires the use of applications which support different operating systems. Supporting multiplatform environments is therefore one of the key aspects of corporate IT security. Kaspersky Lab's updated line of business solutions is compatible with all of the most popular platforms, the latest versions of operating systems and applications and thus meets the demands of companies of any size,” commented Director of Kaspersky Lab's Corporate Division, Keith Maskell.
