Secure Email Gateway Software Overview
Secure email gateway software is a type of network security system that monitors emails entering and leaving an organization. It filters out any suspicious or malicious content and blocks it from reaching the recipient’s inbox. This type of system is highly recommended for companies that rely heavily on email for communication with customers, vendors, staff, and other external parties.
Secure email gateway software works by scanning emails for spam, malware, phishing attacks, harmful attachments, offensive content, and malicious links. If any of these types of items are detected in an incoming mail message or file attachment, the system will block the message from being delivered to its intended recipient. The same process occurs when outgoing messages are sent; if they contain any type of malicious content they will be blocked before reaching their destination.
In addition to filtering out potentially dangerous emails and preventing them from getting into your organization’s network, secure email gateways also protect sensitive information such as passwords or confidential data like financial statements by encrypting messages and ensuring their privacy while in transit. They also allow you to set up rules to automatically delete certain types of emails based on key words or phrases that may be found in the subject line or body of a message. This helps ensure that only authorized individuals have access to private data.
Secure email gateways can also help organizations comply with industry regulations such as HIPAA and SOX which require companies to have extra security measures in place for handling sensitive customer information. By having this type of system installed it allows organizations to stay compliant as well as make sure all emails sent through their network meet their pre-set standards for confidentiality and protection against cyber threats.
In addition to providing comprehensive security measures for incoming/outgoing emails, many secure email gateway solutions offer additional features such as archiving capabilities which allow administrators to store past communications should they ever need them for legal purposes or review later on down the road. These systems can also include reporting tools that generate detailed reports about traffic trends over time so administrators can easily identify areas where there may need to be additional security measures implemented in order better monitor network activity moving forward.
Reasons To Use Secure Email Gateway Software
- Compliance: Companies subject to changing compliance requirements or privacy laws (like the European Union's GDPR) need secure, encrypted email solutions to protect their customers' information and data. Email gateway software provides encryption of outgoing emails as well as logging of incoming and outgoing emails so that companies are able to account for all email activity, ensuring compliance with various regulations.
- Security: Secure email gateways minimize the risk of malicious attacks by scanning incoming messages for threats, such as spam, phishing attempts, malware, ransomware and viruses. These solutions also have an added layer of protection in preventing data leakage. Emails sent through secure gateways are protected from prying eyes by implementing strong encryption protocols which prevent any third-party from accessing the content of your emails without permission.
- Automation: Email gateway solutions typically come with automation features that allow businesses to set up customized rules for their mail traffic – eliminating manual processes associated with traditional methods like using a separate anti-spam solution or regularly checking and cleaning up inboxes after every message is received. This allows companies to save time on mundane tasks while increasing employee productivity in other areas of business operations instead.
- User Experience: A secure email gateway makes it easy for users to send and receive emails securely without having to manually navigate a complex web of security procedures or specific settings — reducing troubleshooting time significantly thanks to automated process flow management capabilities.
The Importance of Secure Email Gateway Software
Secure email gateway software is of the utmost importance in today's digital world. A secure email gateway can help protect businesses, organizations and individuals from malicious content, phishing attacks and data breaches, providing a far greater level of security than without it.
The primary purpose of secure email gateway software is to filter out suspicious messages or emails containing malicious content like viruses, spyware or ransomware. Using sophisticated scanning technology such as heuristics and sandboxing tools, the software begins by examining each message for unwanted elements before allowing it to pass into a user inbox. This process guarantees that only safe emails reach the intended recipient and any potential threats are eliminated before they can cause damage to devices or networks.
Another benefit of secure email gateways is their ability to block phishing attempts. Phishing scams rely on tricking people into disclosing confidential information such as usernames, passwords or credit card numbers by disguising themselves as legitimate sources via email communications. With a secure email gateway in place, users can rest assured that any incoming mail is screened for signs of deception including suspicious links or attachments that lead recipients away from trusted websites.
In addition to their role in preventing data loss or leakage due to malicious activity, secure gateways also protect against compliance violations caused by inappropriate emails being sent by employees within an organization. By using advanced keyword filters and language recognition programs, these solutions can scan outgoing messages for sensitive content and alert managers when potentially damaging communications have taken place so corrective action can be taken swiftly if needed.
Overall, having a reliable secure email gateway in place serves as a dependable shield against many of the most commonly encountered cybersecurity threats while helping organizations remain compliant with industry regulations at all times - making it an essential tool for any business operating online today.
What Features Does Secure Email Gateway Software Provide?
- Spam Filtering: Secure email gateway software provides powerful spam filtering capabilities to identify, filter and block malicious or unwanted emails before they reach their destination. This helps keep inboxes clean and prevents users from accidentally clicking on dangerous links or opening malicious attachments.
- Virus Protection: These solutions include virus protection features that help detect and protect against viruses, worms, Trojans, ransomware, crypto miners, spyware and other malicious programs delivered via email attachments. By blocking these threats in the gateway layer, secure email gateways can thwart infection attempts targeting end-user devices as well as company networks.
- Data Loss Prevention: Many secure email gateways feature data loss prevention (DLP) capabilities to detect confidential information such as Social Security numbers, banking details and financial records transmitted via emails that could put an organization at risk of a data breach if they fell into wrong hands. The automated DLP system scans all incoming/outgoing emails for sensitive data to prevent their unauthorized disclosure or transmission outside the organization’s network perimeter.
- Encryption: Through this feature organizations are able to encrypt outbound emails using either S/MIME or TLS encryption protocols for additional security in transit when needed to provide users with peace of mind that their messages are safeguarded during delivery over the Internet. Additionally many secure email gateways support the encryption of stored messages on mail servers within an internal environment according to specific policies configured by admins thus protecting customer’s data in case of a physical breach attempt like server theft or hacking into local network environments.
- Archiving & Logging: Secure Email Gateways also enable organizations to store incoming/outgoing message logs for auditing purposes ensuring transparency about communications performed within their IT infrastructure according to specific retention policies imposed by authorities or company protocols depending on what is applicable for each business based on industry compliance standards; this way administrators can make sure user activities remain compliant with changing regulations at any given time in real-time.

- Healthcare Organizations: Healthcare organizations can benefit from secure email gateway software to protect patient health information (PHI) in accordance with HIPAA regulations while keeping communication with patients safe and secure.
- Educational Institutions: Schools and universities use secure email gateway software to protect student data by encrypting messages sent over unsecured networks, as well as preventing unauthorized users from accessing the systems.
- Financial Institutions: Financial institutions rely on secure email gateways for efficient communication between customers and staff, as well as ensuring compliance with regulatory guidelines such as those specified by FinCEN or other financial entities.
- Legal Professionals: Lawyers use secure email gateways to communicate confidentially about client matters without fear of interception or tampering by outside parties.
- Nonprofit Organizations: Nonprofits require privacy when trading sensitive information regarding donors or volunteers, making it necessary for them to employ a secure mailbox provider in order to make sure all communications are completed safely and securely over an encrypted channel.
How Much Does Secure Email Gateway Software Cost?
The cost of secure email gateway software can vary greatly depending on the features and functionality you are looking for. Generally, more robust solutions will have a higher cost associated with them. Some basic packages might start as low as $2-3 per user per month, while more comprehensive packages could range anywhere from $5-$15 per user per month.
For businesses needing greater flexibility or additional functionalities, many providers offer enterprise-level plans with prices that range from hundreds to even thousands of dollars a month for larger organizations. Many providers also allow customers to purchase licenses up front in bulk and receive discounts off monthly subscription fees. Additionally, there may be setup fees or setup costs associated with implementing an email gateway solution that would need to be taken into account when considering the overall cost.
Risks Associated With Secure Email Gateway Software
- Security Flaws: Secure email gateways can be vulnerable to security flaws, such as buffer overflows or other exploitable vulnerabilities. This can lead to data breaches or other malicious activities.
- Spam Filtering Accuracy: Secure email gateways may not always accurately detect and filter out spam emails, which could leave a business exposed to phishing attacks, malware downloads, and other forms of cybercrime.
- Email Tampering: Since secure email gateways encrypt messages using strong cryptographic algorithms, attackers may try to tap into the network communications and tamper with emails before they reach their intended recipients.
- Compliance Risks: Depending on the regulations governing an organization’s industry sector, compliance risks may arise if there are gaps in the security of its secure email gateway software.
- Data Loss/Leakage: If a secure email gateway is not set up properly or it is breached by a malicious actor, sensitive company data may be exposed or leaked.
What Does Secure Email Gateway Software Integrate With?
Secure email gateway software can integrate with many different types of software. It is compatible with security protocols like SPF, DKIM and DMARC to ensure email authentication and integrity. It can also use content filters that scan the emails for malicious attachments, links or phrases to detect and prevent phishing attempts. Additionally, secure email gateway software can be integrated with encryption tools such as TLS 1.3, S/MIME and PGP to ensure message privacy as well as antivirus packages which provide additional protection against malware threats. Secure email gateway software also has the ability to detect potential data leakage risks by scanning emails for sensitive information that could be used in an attack. Finally, secure email gateways are often integrated with archiving solutions so they can keep a copy of all sent messages in case future action needs to be taken.
