Secure Email Server Solution

Hosting your company’s email on someone else’s servers means trusting them to keep your data private. When a company like Google changes its privacy policy, you can never be sure about the privacy of your data. With your email hosted on servers housed within your business, you control all aspects of its privacy. It includes not only who has administrative access to accounts, and network access to the service, but also physical access to the hardware the service is running on.

Hosting your own email gives you full control over policies governing your data. Depending on the nature of your business, data-retention policies may be critical, especially as it relates to court-ordered access to your email archives. Being able to control your policies to retain mail only as long as needed, or for as long as possible may be an important consideration.

Web-based email systems tend to get updates and feature changes more frequently than locally installed systems, mainly because the changes are easier to push out. When those changes remove features you relied on, add features you don’t want, or come at a time when retraining staff is difficult, your business could suffer. Having your own email system allows you to schedule your own updates for a time that best works for the company, and gives you more direct control over selecting which features are added, retained, or removed.

Not only is the mail delivered quickly throughout the company, but any mail coming in is received immediately. When a company doesn’t have its own mail server, internal and incoming messages all have to be routed to the distant server before they are delivered. Depending on how slow the server is to connect, the messages may not be received for quite some time. A business with its own mail server eliminates the lag time between sending and receiving messages.

Protection against hacking and malicious attacks with SSL encryption, S/MIME, anti-spam and anti-virus tools, and more. 

Automated backup with granular restore options ensure quick and easy recovery from all types of disasters. Server-wide archiving prevents data loss and helps organizations to comply with legal requirements for email retention.
