Image Scanning provides protection from exposure to distasteful images with no hardware or software purchase or maintenance required.

Many organizations recognize the distress that can be suffered by users who innocently open email to find distasteful images attached. Increasingly, employers recognize that they have a responsibility to minimize these incidents and consequently, Webroot provides a filter specifically to address image analysis.

The image scanning process.

User Protection

When images are scanned their dataflow (shape, color, texture, etc.) is converted into a digital signature which is then compared against known pornographic images. If the image is similar to those blacklisted images, the email content is defined as being of a pornographic nature and appropriate action is taken to either delete or quarantine the email.

Containment and Notification

All messages containing suspect images are logged and quarantined. Optional customizable notification messages may be sent to the administrator, sender or intended recipient.

Email Discovery

Ensure that your organization is prepared for any e-discovery request by storing and indexing every email, IM and attachment in one centralized online repository. Real-time search and retrieval capabilities accelerate legal discovery and HR inquiries by providing quick access to archived data, significantly reducing the time and expense associated with e-discovery requests. To protect sensitive communications, users can flag attorney-client privileged communications, which are excluded from e-discovery requests.

Management Control

As with all aspects of the Webroot service, the client has complete control via a secure web control panel. Logs and quarantine areas may be viewed, rapidly searched and interrogated. Because Webroot stamps every email processed with the date and time it was received, tracing and tracking is made easy. Additionally, full graphical reporting provides unrivalled presentation of information.

Rapid Implementation

The Webroot managed service is extremely quick and simple to setup. It offers the lowest risk approach to introducing email filtering into any organisation. The mission critical nature of email is recognised so it helps to know that Webroot has been through this process many times. The whole process of providing protection may be achieved in less than a few days.
