New Feature: Outbreak Filters
AsyncOS 7.5 updates the Virus Outbreak Filters feature, now Outbreak Filters, to
protect your users from the growing trend of low-volume, targeted email attacks
in addition to virus outbreaks. The messages used for these non-viral threats, such
as phishing messages, scams, and malware distribution, are complex, evolving,
and can be more difficult to detect than widespread virus outbreaks or spam
campaigns. The enhancements in the Outbreak Filters feature offer your users
protection from these attacks and prevents them from downloading malware or
distributing sensitive information.

when they click on one of the message’s links.
