C2C is a leading provider of E-mail
Lifecycle Management solutions for Exchange: e-mail archiving,
capacity and data management; content management, security,
compression and auto-zipping software.
Access Security Manager provides administrators with control and
verification of Exchange Mailbox and public folder access rights and
permissions.
Access Security Manager allows you to manage security for mailboxes folders
and public folders in Exchange: providing integrity for your mail systems before
compromised data is committed to archive. It allows you to detect ‘shadow
users’; those users who might gain access (accidentally or otherwise) to the
mailboxes of others. The Access Security Manager then enables you to update
users’ permissions in line with approved security policy and practices.
An organization may be open to many levels of email abuse, not only issues of
archive security, if there is no method of knowing who has the ability to look
into mailboxes and act as if they were that mailbox owner.
Audits Exchange security settings
rapidly - Access Security Manager automates the multiple
tasks involved in compiling security settings, performs mass updates
and presents simple summaries for the administrator. To detect and
rectify unintentional or malicious breaches in mailbox folder or
public folder access rights.
Validates the integrity of the
email stores and public folders - Make sure that the correct
users have rights of each and every mailbox.
Pre-empts security breaches
- Access Security Manager can run automatically, at set
times, to provide on-going audits of access rights across the whole
organization. This enables errors to be detected before they are
exploited.
Provides additional security for any email archive system- Access Security Manager has been designed to enhance the
integrity of data within any email compliance archive, not only
Archive One.
Ensures the safeguards for
confidential information- Access Security Manager helps prevent unauthorized
users from gaining access to confidential or critical information by
making certain that appropriate permissions are set.
Finds anonymous and deleted users- Reduce the
possibility of ‘zombie’ users coming into existence as organizations
evolve.
Prevents email impersonation
- Prevent the organization being misrepresented through misuse of
organizational email ID’s. Stops email users having others’ ’send on
behalf’ to illegitimately impersonate. Avoid email that they send in
this guise being permanently maintained in the archive.
Reduces leaks of email information- Removes the
temptation to communicate sensitive data; Wither uncovered in error or
by the efforts disgruntled staff.
Easy to implement, maintain and
manage - Quick wizard-guided install, simple admin controls
and standard interfaces minimize the Total Cost of Ownership.
Access Security Manager compiles all the information about mailbox
and mail folder permissions, access rights and ‘send on behalf’ controls
from multiple mail servers. The information is presented clearly so
that authorized administrators can simply modify individual or group
settings.
Mailbox and public folder permissions- Access Security
Manager enables easy management of permissions which control access to core
parts of the mail system and prevent unauthorized access to sensitive
information.
Standard rights searches - By
using a Security Wizard Manager for rights control administrators can monitor
the integrity of mailbox and public folder permissions without needing to
detail how the mail store security structure is configured.
Permissions associated to a user
- Provides full information of all those with permissions over user mailboxes
and Exchange stores.
‘Send on Behalf of’ permissions
- Access Security Manager specifically Identifies ‘Send on Behalf of’
permissions. Administrators are able to identify block rogue users who may try
to impersonate other staff – and stop them.
Zombie users - Zombie users can
occur when a user is deleted from the mail system, and their legacy
permissions remain in the system. Later when a new user joins with the same
user ID he or she inherits these dormant permissions in full. Access Security
Manager alerts the administrator to Zombies.
Secure other email archive solutions
- No matter which email archive solution is in place mailboxes access rights
are verified to help make sure that false information is not placed into
archive. The access rights to the archive itself can also be verified. (This
second feature depends on use of exchange rights to synchronize with archive
security).
Flexible groupings of permissions
- Access Security Manager can collate permissions for parts of the information
store and focus on specific users, distribution lists and mailbox folders over
different servers with specific mailbox exclude controls.
Post findings and updates to external
database - Posts information about permission settings and updates to
an external database from where the information can be analyzed and reused.
Mass updates of permissions -
Access Security Manager supports update permissions across the full selection
of users and folders, whichever the administrator has selected, as a single
action.
Optional read only control -
Provides hierarchically administration with operators able to be set-up to
only run permissions checks and read results, but do no changes.
Automatic permission searches and updates
- Access Security Manager can run regularly for preventative monitoring and
control over access permissions to avoid security flaws from developing or
being exploited.
Active Directory- Inspects Exchange for information that
is held in Active Directory about Mailbox and Public folder access-related
permissions.
Hidden mailboxes options - Hidden mailboxes may be included or excluded
from the access information. This can simplify the analysis of information
for the administrator.
Multiple Mailbox folder types- Access Security Manager
can distinguish between all folder types including: mail folders, Calendar
folders, Notes folders, Journal folders, Contacts and Personal folders. It
makes sure that legitimate diary sharing is not effected by changes in
permissions which access email stores.
MMC Interface - Access Security
Manager is driven via a standard Microsoft MMC interface so that
administrators can start without specialist training. This reduces
configuration times and results in low on-going running costs.
Scalable structure - Access
Security Manager helps to secure tens to hundreds of thousands of users on
multiple mail servers. The combination of detailed analysis of mail system
security and clear administrative controls makes the Access Security Manager
effective and reliable for both small and large organizations.
