Give it a try

Protect your business. Retarus Email Security.

Email is a company’s main method of communication and a threat at the same time, because an email gateway is the front door to your IT system for cyber attacks. The consequences of an attack range from malfunctions in the IT infrastructure and data loss to complete system failure and far-reaching damage to a company’s image. In most cases there are huge costs involved that could have been prevented. Choose Retarus Email Security now for end-to-end protection with innovative defense mechanisms. Because your email is meant to support your business, not put it at risk.

Cyber attacks are becoming more and more intelligent.
Are your defenses keeping up?

Attacks are becoming more precise and intelligent. They long surpass the capabilities of conventional defense mechanisms, posing a continuous risk to companies. That is why you need Retarus to help you create an effective defense system—one that will increase your company’s level of security over the long term.
 
Increase your security now

Don’t get caught by ransomware, phishing, and CEO fraud.

The consequences of cybercrime: thousands of attacks daily with financial damage in the billions. Data is targeted and stolen, hard drives are locked, ransoms are demanded, infrastructures are compromised, and even entire business operations are temporarily paralyzed. In 90% of all cases, an email is where the attack begins. This means that maximum control of every incoming email is essential for reliable business continuity. Retarus ensures you are in control by ensuring that preventative protection (even against advanced threats), early detection of threats not yet identified, accelerated response processes, monitoring, and analyses work together perfectly.

To the Radicati-Report

Stop attackers before attackers stop your business.

How do you protect your company from known and unknown malware, advanced threats, and targeted attacks? The general rule is that the more targeted the attacker, the more targeted the course of action against the attacker must be. Retarus has developed defense mechanisms that are perfectly harmonized to protect you from attacks.

Advanced protection against advanced threats

To protect from intelligently executed attacks, companies need protection that is just as intelligent. That is why Retarus offers four virus scanners, deferred delivery scanning, sandboxing, time-of-click protection, and CEO fraud protection. We call this advanced.

Targeted protection from targeted attacks

Approximately 80% of targeted attacks are carried out via attachments or links in an email. What’s the best way to protect yourself? Check each incoming email for criminal content. In the case of spear phishing, for example, Retarus detects and filters emails with fake sender addresses. This is also known as CEO fraud. Retarus effectively prevents phishing attacks by checking links the moment they are clicked and obstructing direct access to untrustworthy sites.

Identify unidentified threats

There is no such thing as 100% protection from cyber attacks. Even brand new malware can’t be stopped by the best virus filters the first time around, because their patterns are still unknown. With our patented Patient Zero Detection® technology, it is now possible to identify malware in emails that have already been delivered and warn the recipients as soon as the matching patterns exist. Analysts highly recommend the use of postdelivery protection.
 
What level of protection do you need?

 

Protect your information and ensure compliance

Unencrypted emails are easy prey for data thieves. They’re just like a postcard on its way to be delivered. Retarus Email Encryption encrypts emails for you, ensuring that only authorized persons read what you’ve written. Retarus Data Loss Prevention ensures that confidential data, such as customer, production, or design data does not end up somewhere outside of your company’s network. In addition, you can archive your entire email correspondence with Retarus Enterprise Email Archive. Tamper-proof and in real time. With Retarus, you protect not only your information, but also ensure compliance with regulations and international data protection guidelines such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

Target: Maximum protection

Essential
protection

Features

Double AntiVirus MultiScan
AntiVirus MultiScan scans incoming and outgoing emails and attached files for malware, and uses heuristic analyses to protect from unknown malware. More information
External Sender Visibility Enhancement
External Sender Visibility Enhancement flags incoming emails sent by an external sender pretending to have the same sender domain as that of the recipient’s company network (spoofing). This feature makes it easier to detect spoofed sender addresses. More information
Phishing Filter
The phishing filter systematically checks incoming emails for phishing attacks and compares the link in the email with specialized sources of known phishing URLs. Suspicious emails are either moved to quarantine and flagged as “phishing” or deleted. More information
AntiSpam Management
Incoming emails are spam-checked using multilingual content analyses and many other identification rules. Depending on the service setting, emails classified as spam are flagged or quarantined. More information
Attachment Blocker
The Attachment Blocker prevents receipt of emails with certain types of attachments that should not be allowed to reach the business infrastructure. For example, .exe, .zip, or Office files with macros. More information
Directory Filter
The Directory Filter rejects incorrectly addressed emails and uses its traffic shaping and traffic throttling mechanisms for improved reputation management. Valid addresses are automatically reconciled with the customer’s systems. More information
Large Email Handling
Large Email Handling allows recipients to receive large emails despite a size limitation defined for the mail server. Access to large emails and attachments is provided via download with simplified user authentication. More information
Administration & Analysis
Directory Synchronization
Automated Directory Synchronization significantly simplifies user administration, since user data from customer directory services (AD or LDAP) is automatically synchronized with Retarus. More information

Access Management
Access Management enables the flexible and requirement-based assignment of administration access rights, e.g. according to country, domain, or department, as well as targeted management of access options to sensitive data. More information

Email Live Search
Email Live Search provides detailed information on the status of each individual email in real time. This search function makes it easier to find emails, simplifies the analysis of delivery delays, and supports IT forensics. More information

Forensic SIEM Integration
Forensic SIEM Integration offers events you can subscribe to that enrich your data stream with details about email security. More information

Monitoring & Reporting
In addition to the easy management of service instances and user profiles 24/7, the web-based Retarus Enterprise Administration Services portal (EAS) offers information about the effectiveness of Retarus Email Security Services. More information

Additional options
Quadruple AntiVirus MultiScan
Recommended upgrade: using four virus scanners from different providers increases the identification rate of malware up to 75% compared to a typical double scan. More information

Quiet Time
Quiet Time allows you to define periods during which external emails may not be received. To protect your employees, e.g. during evenings and on weekends, or for easy, hassle-free maintenance of your email server. More information

Features

Quadruple AntiVirus MultiScan
Using four virus scanners from different providers increases the identification rate of malware up to 75% compared to a typical double scan. More information
Deferred Delivery Scan
Deferred Delivery Scan subjects emails with attached files to a second analysis using additional re-scan methods. Because of the delay, signatures, which could lead to the detection of the latest malware, could exist at the time additional scans are performed. More information
Sandboxing
Sandboxing subjects emails with specific attached files to an in-depth analysis. Attachments with potentially malicious routines are exported to a virtual machine, checked for anything suspicious, and deleted if a virus is found. More information
Time-of-Click Protection
Time-of-Click Protection automatically rewrites links (URLs) contained in emails (URL rewriting) and checks if the links are potentially dangerous at the time they are clicked, and then prevents direct access to untrustworthy sites. More information
