Email/Spam Protection
Enterprise-grade email security that keeps your business safe
Book a Security AssessmentEmail remains one of the highest-risk attack surfaces
Email remains one of the highest-risk attack surfaces for businesses: spam, phishing, ransomware, malware-laden attachments and malicious URLs all originate via email. Simply relying on basic cloud-hygiene in systems like Microsoft 365 is no longer sufficient for organisations with sensitive data, regulatory obligations or high uptime expectations. Holistec Systems' email security offering, anchored on the Fortra Secure Email Gateway (SEG), shifts email from being a liability to a managed asset, designed for proactive threat blocking, policy enforcement, and continuous flow of legitimate communication.
The Fortra SEG solution
The Fortra SEG solution underpins Holistec's service with a multi-layered and deeply inspected approach. It features dual spam-filtering engines achieving up to 99.9% spam detection rates, plus signature, heuristic and cloud-look-up antivirus protection.
It embeds a Deep Content Inspection Engine that analyses email content, attachments (including nested and compressed files), metadata, embedded objects and even images via OCR/steganography detection.
It doesn't just block: it sanitises or redacts offending content via its award-winning Adaptive Redaction technology — meaning if a document has a hidden macro, secret metadata or a suspicious embedded object, the system can strip that out and deliver the safe version rather than halt the flow entirely.
The Holistec advantage
For customers of Holistec, the advantage is two-fold. First, you get a service built to scale across 1000+ mailboxes, meaning the protections aren't limited to a few high-risk users but apply organisation-wide. Second, Holistec combines the technology with operational discipline: policies are configured and tuned by experts, quarantine and delivery workflows are managed, reporting is provided, and escalation processes exist.
That means less false positives disrupting business, less burden for internal IT teams, and stronger audit-ready compliance controls (for example GDPR, HIPAA, PCI). The Fortra SEG is designed with granular policy controls, built-in compliance dictionaries, and encryption options for sensitive communication.
More than just a spam filter
By leveraging Holistec's managed email security service using Fortra Secure Email Gateway, you're not just buying a "spam filter" — you're acquiring a fully-managed, enterprise-grade email defence platform deployed, monitored and tuned by specialists. It ensures fewer malicious emails reach your users, fewer legitimate emails are wrongly blocked, sensitive data doesn't leave under your radar, and your business communications remain fluid, resilient and secure.
