Email Guard's cloud filter serves as a first line of defense and blocks the vast majority of threats from reaching your network firewall. This decreases your vulnerability to external threats and saves network bandwidth and storage. Email Guard's on-premises gateway appliance provides a deeper level of inspection for incoming email. For outbound email, the local security gateway provides anti-virus and anti-spam filtering, policy-based Data Loss Prevention, and encryption. The on-premises security gateway can also help Exchange Server to monitor and protect internal email traffic that stays inside your security perimeter.
