A scalable and stable solution with straightforward deployment

Pros

"You can advise the solution and protect your environment. "

Cons

"The solution should have better reporting."

What is our primary use case?

This solution is used for email networking and roaming.

What is most valuable?

We can generate maps from the environment. For example, suppose there is a virus that has a zero-day attack and is publicly unknown. We can block that and keep it away from the network so it is not further replicated.

It also has custom white and black lists. We can add a good reputation on both lists and use the sonar technology for Symantec and the online network for advanced reports.
