GWAVA for Vibe

Perimeter Blocking

GWAVA blocks most viruses and spam before they can even get near your collaboration system. Once the GWAVA SMTP scanner is set up, it virtually runs itself. The SMTP scanner is distributed as an ISO with the GWAVA product so you can create your own spam scanning appliance using your own hardware.  By using the perimeter blocker, Vibe can run faster and more efficiently. 

Linux and Windows Support

GWAVA runs natively on both Linux® and Windows®. It is also available as a soft appliance which can be installed directly on a physical computer or run as a virtual machine. 

Email Surveillance and Statistics

The GWAVA dashboard provides thorough and customizable statistics. With its easy-to-use browser-based UI, view a complete and up-to-the-minute landscape of how GWAVA is protecting your collaboration system. 

Reports

GWAVA keeps you informed about the state of your Vibe system. Set a schedule and GWAVA will deliver useful reports to your email.

Alerts

Not only does GWAVA protect your system, but it alerts you the instant a serious problem is detected. If any error occurs within the GWAVA program itself or from an external factor such as a network error that could potentially compromise your collaboration and messaging system, GWAVA will alert you to the problem. 

Double-Layer Anti-Virus Protection with Kaspersky Integration

GWAVA integrates seamlessly with Kaspersky for the best anti-virus protection available for both in-bound and out-bound traffic. Because GWAVA operates at a low level in your network architecture, viruses are stopped before an outbreak can cost you thousands of dollars in lost time and data. In addition, GWAVA provides a second line of AV support with its 0-Day virus outbreak protection.

Anti-Spam Protection

GWAVA keeps your system up-to-date with the latest tactics used by spammers. It learns and builds on its knowledge of spam. By analyzing your incoming email, GWAVA determines your organization’s unique needs and separates legitimate email from spam. GWAVA contains two engines, each of which approaches spam differently.

The probability engine makes use of artificial intelligence to maximize your spam catching abilities. It lets you define rules and learns from received spam, evolving into better and better spam protection. With this technology, you can enjoy the highest percentages of spam protection in the industry, at the same time reducing the problem of false positives.

The GWAVA signature engine locates known spammers based on their signatures and blocks them. Continually updated information about spammers and spam attacks is fed into the signature engine so you can stop it before it clogs up your message system. 

GWAVA spam blocking functions include:

  • Address blocking—lets you create your own blocklists.
  • Content filtering—scans the subject, body, and attachments of messages for words or phrases you wish to stop.Content filtering not only saves time, but helps you prevent confidential information or offensive words from being disseminated. 
  • Heuristics—using these rules, GWAVA searches each message for a list of spam characteristics and attributes a spam score to the message accordingly. The accuracy of heuristics means that GWAVA can determine what is spam so you don’t have to.
  • SURBL technology—using SURBLs (Spam URL Realtime Blocklists), GWAVA finds common URL links inside the spam email itself.
  • IP reputation scanning—filters messages based on the sending server's IP address (including greylisting).
  • Conversation tracking—tracks your conversations so that crucial replies and threads aren’t caught in the spam filter.
  • TLS support—provides support for end-to-end encryption of transmitted messages.
