The Cisco IronPort Email Security appliance is a high-performance appliance designed to meet the email 
infrastructure needs of the most demanding enterprise networks. The Email Security appliance 
eliminates spam and viruses, enforces corporate policy, secures the network perimeter, and reduces the 
total cost of ownership (TCO) of enterprise email infrastructure.

Cisco IronPort Systems combines hardware, a hardened operating system, application, and supporting 
services to produce a purpose-built, rack-mount server appliance dedicated for enterprise messaging.

The Cisco IronPort AsyncOS™ operating system integrates several intelligent features into the Cisco 
IronPort appliance:

Anti-Spam at the gateway, through the unique, multi-layer approach of SenderBase Reputation 
Filters and Cisco IronPort Anti-Spam integration. 

Anti-Virus at the gateway with the Sophos and McAfee Anti-Virus scanning engines.

Outbreak Filters™, Cisco IronPort’s unique, preventive protection against new virus, scam, and 
phishing outbreaks that can quarantine dangerous messages until new updates are applied, reducing 
the window of vulnerability to new message threats. 

Spam Quarantine either on-box or off, providing end user access to quarantined spam and 
suspected spam.
