Integration with Microsoft Active Directory Service

Igaware network appliances can be configured as a ADS domain member, gaining access to all active directory services. One of the main benefits is that of enabling single sign-on authentification of users. For example, a network manager may want to implement an Igaware box to report and control staff web usage. As a member of the ADS domain the Igaware box can identify individual users accessing the web from the moment they log onto their computers and start surfing the web. Acting as a proxy, the Igaware box can report on web visits and block access to sites deemed as inappropriate on a individual user basis.

The Igaware box automatically configures desktop web browsers to use it as the proxy, thereby removing the need for manual configuration.

Igaware is the easiest way to deliver enterprise level web and email filtering within a Windows network.

Igaware Anti-Spam now with Greylisting

Igaware has rolled out Greylisting to further bolster it's email filtering solution. Greylisting is a simple method of defending email users against spam. In short, with Greylisting enabled, an Igaware box will "temporarily reject" any email from a sender it does not recognise. If the mail is legitimate, the originating server will try again to send it later, at which time the Igaware box will accept it. If the mail is from a spammer, it will probably not be retried. Customer email reports show that Greylisting can cut the amount of Spam being received and needing filtering by up to 95%.

Configuring an Igaware box for Greylisting requires 2 steps; you need to ensure that you have only one MX record configured for each email domain you use. You need to enable Greylisting on your Igaware box through the Administration Interface - go to Administration=>Servers=>Email=>Security Filtering=>Spam=>Greylisting.
