Other enhancements are also included in this release.
Secure message delivery
Secure message delivery is an on-premises encryption feature that provides a secure portal in which your organization's customers may view, send, and manage email that contains sensitive information. For example, you may wish to include personal financial information in a message to a client. The portal provides a secure location for the transmission of this data.
Users within your organization who send and receive secure messages handle these messages via their local email clients, not the secure portal.
As with other encryption options in Email Security Gateway, you must configure an email DLP policy in the Data Security manager. Configure secure message delivery in the Settings > Inbound/Outbound > Encryption page. Specify the appliance that hosts the secure portal, then select the message-handling options you want your customers to have in the portal, including:
*
*
*
You can also define the recipients to which your end users are allowed to send secure mail:
*
*
Use the message template editor to design the notification that your customers receive when a secure message is available for viewing. You can use the default template or customize it to suit your needs.
Secure messages are stored in a searchable secure-encryption queue (Main > Message Management > Message Queues). The maximum queue size and number of days a message is retained in the portal are configured on the Edit Queue page.
See Secure Message Delivery in Email Security Manager Help for configuration details.
In addition to the user actions listed earlier, your customers may view and search messages in the secure message portal after they create an account. Users may also select 1 of 9 languages in which to view the portal interface. See Websense Secure Messaging User Help for the secure message portal end-user instructions.
Phishing detection and education
The phishing detection and education feature provides the capability to prevent phishing email from penetrating your network and an opportunity to instruct your organization's email users how to recognize and deflect phishing threats.
The phishing detection feature is part of Websense ThreatScope for Email Security Gateway Anywhere. Your subscription must include ThreatScope and the email hybrid service if you want to use this function.
An inbound email message can be analyzed in the cloud for specific characteristics of phishing email. Use the Phishing Rules tab on the Settings > Inbound/Outbound > Phishing Detection page to define the rules that determine which sender domains are analyzed and how a suspected phishing email is handled. Suspect email may be treated like spam (blocked and saved to a spam queue) or be replaced by a message that educates the recipient about phishing attack email. The Phishing Education Pages tab lets you create these pages.
See Phishing detection and education in Email Security Manager Help for configuration details.
New dashboard charts and presentation reports are available to display suspected phishing attack data.
New dashboard
A new dashboard format replaces the Today and History pages available in previous releases of Email Security Gateway (Main > Status > Dashboard). The new format provides administrators added flexibility to display more message data and system information on the dashboard than previously available in the Today and History pages.
The type of information and level of detail shown depends on your subscription level. Email Security Gateway Anywhere is required, for example, to display information about the email hybrid service and how it safeguards your system.
The new dashboard can display up to 7 dashboard tabs, each of which can accommodate up to 12 charts. Populate your dashboard tabs with any of the more than 40 customizable charts. Most dashboard charts can be customized to change their time period and their display format (for example, stacked column, stacked area, multi-series line). You can include multiple versions of the same chart on a tab (for example, showing different time periods).
You can edit, enlarge, copy, and print dashboard charts. Data drill-down capabilities are available in the edit, enlarge, and preview chart views. Use a drag-and-drop function to move charts from one location to another within a tab.
See The Email Security Gateway Dashboard in Email Security Manager Help for configuration details and a list of available dashboard charts.
