ABSTRACT:
Most large enterprises have the financial resources to implement and maintain comprehensive in-house email security. But SMBs often lack the resources to deploy an in-house email server and its accompanying security solution. Many smaller companies feel that their only option is to implement single-point solutions such as standalone firewalls, anti-spam software, or intrusion detection systems. While these kinds of solutions do provide a certain measure of email security, they simply can't offer the same kind of protection against blended email threats as enterprise-grade, end-to-end security solutions that effectively utilize best of breed technologies.
Today, more and more SMBs and a surprising number of enterprises are beginning to migrate toward hosted email providers-particularly those offering Microsoft Exchange hosting. Exchange email hosting provides all sized businesses with a high-caliber, scalable email solution at an affordable cost. Whether a company is expanding or downsizing; has 5,000 users or 15, it only pays its email host for the resources it actually uses on a monthly basis. And it benefits from enterprise-grade email functionality that could never be achieved through single-point solutions.
As an increasing number of SMBs explore solutions offered through hosted Exchange providers, they are realizing that enterprise-grade email functionality and enterprise-level email security do not always go hand in hand. As we'll examine in the next few sections, it is critical that all size groups, SMBs and large enterprises with multiple locations, select an Exchange email provider that follows best security practices-both within its own organization and across its email offering.
