The recent spate of computer virus outbreaks highlighted in the news has raised some concerns from clients over the effect to their websites and email.

Be assured that our systems are fully protected from such attacks. Our servers are carefully monitored 24 hours a day to ensure optimum performance and to ensure that any Denial Of Service (DOS) attacks that prevent websites from functioning are protected against.

We also employ the industry-leading anti-SPAM software to identify possible spam emails allowing clients to easily avoid opening potentially harmful email.

Due to the unpredictable nature of email and virus authors, no amount of countermeasures put in place can ever guarantee to be 100% effective at blocking harmful email although intelligent filtering and diligence can prove to be the most effective defense.

Did you know that simply viewing and even 'previewing' your email can cause your computer to become infected?

Email Filtering

In order to provide the highest level of protection we recommend that clients look towards PC based anti-virus and anti-spam software. We recommend Firetrust Firetrust MailWasher Pro and Firetrust Benign for an effective email protection system.

Both of these packages act as a protective layer between your PC and email arriving from the Internet. They automate the process of sifting through and rendering potentially damaging email containing viruses, tracking bugs, worms, trojans, pornographic images and other malicious attachments harmless as well as deleting unwanted spam.
