Marshal Case Study: Cawthron

Tags:
security management

Overview Cawthron is New Zealand's largest, private, independent research organization. Cawthron staff increases led to the company's bandwidth consumption swelling to 50GB a month. Increased staff use of email and the Internet meant the organization was more exposed to email and web-borne threats, such as such as spam, phishing, spyware, viruses and DoS (Denial of Service) attacks. The threats themselves had also evolved and posed far greater security risks to organization. Cawthron selected MailMarshal SMTP and WebMarshal because of their highly granular content filtering capabilities, advanced control features such as spam categorization, antivirus and anti-spyware scanning technology and automated updated URL filter lists.
