Is Outsourcing Email Security Right for You?
How to balance your needs for security, manageability and control

Featuring::
Dave Giaramita, Managing Partner, SourceAffect
Willy Leichter, Director of Product Marketing, Tumbleweed

Recorded March 28, 2006

OVERVIEW: Most email technology managers like to remain invisible. They want to enable business communication and focus on efficient routing and delivery of mail, without disruption for end-users. However, increasing security concerns, (such as spam, viruses, network attacks, regulatory compliance, content filtering, and outbound encryption), can add complexity, strain resources, and force technology managers outside of their areas of core competency.

To many IT professionals, outsourcing sounds like an attractive option – let someone else worry about tuning spam filters, updating virus profiles, managing mail relays, and being “on the hook” for security. But there are many factors to consider in deciding what functions should be outsourced, such as company’s size, email usage, network infrastructure, and regulatory requirements.

Join Tumbleweed Communications and email security expert Dave Giaramita, Managing Partner at SourceAffect, for an interactive discussion of the security and management challenges facing email technology implementers and decision makers.
