Postini - Message Discovery

Google Message Discovery, powered by Postini, is a secure, hosted service that provides enterprise-grade spam and virus protection as well as comprehensive email archiving for organizations looking for cost-effective email management and significant advantages over onsite server or media-based email archiving.

Google Message Discovery lets you:

• create a centralized and searchable email repository for your organization
• quickly search across the archive to find emails and save result sets
• secure your email from spam, viruses, phishing, and other email-borne threats
• set central email policies to manage content and compliance requirements

Google Message Discovery is hosted in the cloud and built on a Software as a Service (SaaS) model, so there's no need to forecast or plan for future storage needs. Google's secure and redundant data centers keep your messages fully protected and backed up, removing the risk of loss due to onsite server failure. Data ownership remains with your organization so you retain the control over your information.

You can archive mail without worrying about disk space, and can eliminate storage quota headaches by giving users easy access to archived email. What's more, by removing aged mail from your servers, you can decrease both backup windows and recovery times.

Google Message Discovery also includes a complete set of email security features, so you can provide the highest levels of security for your email systems – without installing expensive hardware or software. This lets you block spam, viruses, and other external threats before they reach your organization and ensure proprietary information that must remain confidential stays within your organization.
