IBM eMail Security Services is designed to help organizations mitigate the risks
inherent in Internet eMail communications through a comprehensive suite of
services that scan and monitor eMails before it reaches the clients' network.

that can seriously compromise business's ability to function — impacting
employee productivity and, at worst, putting the entire organisation at risk.
The new solution provides four modular options that intercept and dispose eMails
containing viruses, spam, pornography and undesired content and offers better
protection and faster response to emerging threats than can be achieved in-house
— at a lower cost.
The Security Assessment Service is designed to conduct a security check of an
organization's IT infrastructure and assess its readiness against ISO 27001
standards. The service will enable appreciate the security posture of a company
by verifying the integrity confidentiality and availability of the
organisation's IT infrastructure. Recommendations from the assessment aim to
mitigate risks by providing inputs to close the security gaps in the IT
Infrastructure.
IBM Site Assessment Services can help assess the present infrastructure and
utilities that support the site of operation to function in a specific manner.
IBM's consulting and implementation experts can help define a clear
infrastructure strategy with a focus on optimizing the end-to-end automation
capabilities of IT environments. Some of the key benefits of this service are:
(a) improving resiliency and enhancing business operations (b) preparing
infrastructure for future technology advances (c) allowing focus on running
business instead of on IT issues (d) providing tailored solutions to meet
business needs (e) relying on the experience of a global team.
