Advanced Content Management
All too often, inappropriate or offensive content is sent,
received, and circulated around a company, potentially 
exposing organizations to legal liability. GroupShield prevents
inappropriate content that can be offensive to employees
with advanced content management. GroupShield can
analyze e-mail message body content and many hundreds of
e-mail attachments for inappropriate words or phrases. In
addition, GroupShield can log and quarantine e-mail to help
organizations comply with legal regulatory requirements for
inappropriate e-mail messages based on: 
• True file attachment type
• File attachment names
• File attachment sizes
• Message subject-line content
• Message body content
• Message attachment content
To further mitigate legal liability, GroupShield can add message
disclaimers to the header or footer of an e-mail message.
eXtended Policy Support
GroupShield enables administrators to apply content poli-
cies on a user or departmental basis. User group-based
policies can be applied as an exception to GroupShield
global content scanning policies. Now administrators can
apply more granular departmental policies, such as depart-
mental disclaimers or file attachment filtering, to provide
tighter security where needed. GroupShield comes with ten
user group policies. McAfee eXtended Policy Support
provides unlimited user-based policy support to provide
greater numbers of granular user or departmental content
security controls. Customers using McAfee SpamKiller for
Exchange also receive eXtended Policy Support.
Smart Content Rules
The difficulty in trying to prevent inappropriate content is
differentiating what is inappropriate and should therefore be
prevented from entering, leaving, or circulating the organiza-
tion. GroupShield provides smart content rules that can be
applied to e-mail messages’ bodies or attachments, including
word-based sample rules to prevent inappropriate content
(e.g., profanity, drugs, sex, nudity, racism, and bigotry). An
administrator can customize these rules. Each sample rule
group has three levels of severity: high, medium, and low,
depending on the severity of the words used. Smart content
rules also provide usage criteria to prevent false-positive
word identification common to many words or phrases. 
In addition, smart content rules are localized to provide addi-
tional country support for global organizations.
McAfee Detection and Cleaning Engine
Unbeatable Virus Detection and Cleaning
Like all McAfee anti-virus products, GroupShield is
based on the award-winning McAfee scan engine.
Consistently recognized by independent testing organi-
zations as the world’s leading virus detection and
cleaning technology, the engine stops every type of
virus and malicious code threat, including macro viruses,
Trojans, Internet worms, advanced 32-bit viruses, and
even hostile ActiveX and Java objects. McAfee has an
enviable track record in third-party tests for delivering
effective detection and cleaning. 
Always Up-to-Date
GroupShield features AutoUpdate, which enables the latest
Virus definition (DAT) files to be automatically downloaded
via FTP or network file share. This automated server-side
function ensures that you will always be up-to-date with the
latest DAT files from McAfee.
Virus Scanning API 
Using Microsoft’s virus scanning API, GroupShield provides
the most secure means of scanning Microsoft Exchange
information stores. GroupShield maintains its reverse
compatibility with the Virus Scanning API 2.0 and provides
support for new advanced features found in VS-API 2.5 for
Microsoft Exchange 2003. GroupShield scans all message
bodies and message attachments sent or received from
Outlook Web access client (OWA), Internet-based clients
(POP3/IMAP), or Outlook client (MAPI), and scans at the
SMTP Transport level, thereby preventing e-mail items from
being written to the information store and providing protec-
tion in environments configured with bridgehead servers. 
SMTP Transport Scanning
GroupShield provides the ability to scan SMTP traffic before
it enters the Exchange information store. SMTP Transport
scanning can perform scanning of routed e-mail—e-mail
messages that are not destined for the local server—and can
stop the delivery of messages. SMTP Transport scanning
can be applied to Microsoft Exchange 2003 with the VS-API
2.5 for Exchange 2000 users. SMTP Transport scanning is
provided as part of GroupShield, so Exchange 2000 servers
can be provided with the same security enjoyed by
Exchange 2003 servers.
