New anti-virus protection for Itomic customers

February 5, 2004

Itomic are pleased to announce that today we have introduced new anti-virus software onto our web servers to provide additional protection to the in-boxes of all our website hosting clients. Now, all inbound email messages (including attachments) are scanned for viruses. If a virus is detected, then 1. The email is blocked – it does not get forwarded to the recipient. 2. The sender of the message is sent an email reporting that the message they sent was infected. Whilst this new represents an extra level of security and protection for Itomic clients, it is in no way a substitute for effective anti-virus sofware being installed and regularly updated on all client PCs. This new Itomic service is being provided at no extra cost to our clients.
