| Hi List,
I'm looking for feedback on what others may be running actually on their e-mail servers with regards to AV. We have Barracuda Spam and Virus Firewall appliances at our perimeter, but this is really for spam and I've had some interest into the actual AV capability of late. Also, this doesn't protect us from internal or sending outbound (although we could use for outbound).
I'm looking at the Sophos product line
http://www.sophos.com/products/enterprise/email/security-and-control/
Anyone using this and have any feedback, or suggestions on what else they may be using? Going to be moving to an Exchange 2010 multi-server e-mail system shortly. Currently running Exchange 2007 single server, no AV at the server level (I know, I know). New servers will be Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise.
TIA
Derek

| We third party out to Postini for spam and then use WebSense to control website connection (Someone opens up malware and sends them to a spammer site it should get blocked) and run Trend AV on the server and the Exchange server. I believe each of these pieces is best of breed.
Thanks
Paul

| Same setup as you, I am not comfortable with just using Cuda's email AV. It is too easily fooled and the AV updates are slow to come. Been very happy for years with Trend's Scanmail, it sits right on the exchange box. Integrates really well and I have not seen and noticeable performance hits from it.

| Most of my customers are not running a/v on their Exchange mailservers (to
scan the Exchange mailbox databases).
The mailservers are in a secure network and they have incoming/outgoing a/v
and a/s.

| I still recommend to put it on the mailbox servers although it's basically disabled. It's there such that if something does make it in (e.g. defs don't catch something), we can update the defs on the mailbox server and run a one-time scan of the store to clean-up whatever got in. Otherwise it just runs on the HT and ET roles plus ideally something like FOPE.
Thanks,
