Sentinel Real Estate Corp. Selects Sendio to Provide eMail Integrity
- Company Reports Lower Total Cost of Ownership Than Previous Anti-Spam Solution - IRVINE, Calif.--(Business Wire)-- Sendio, Inc. (www.sendio.com), the enterprise email integrity company whose products ensure that users receive all legitimate email messages but block all viruses, bots, phishing attacks and spam, today announced that it has been chosen to provide email integrity for Sentinel Real Estate Corporation (www.sentinelcorp.com). Sentinel and its affiliates manage portfolios of real estate properties valued at $5 billion, including over 156 properties in 29 states, for pension funds and other institutional investors. "We have about 700 users on our system, and we receive a huge amount of email - about 130,000 per day," according to Sentinel's Senior Vice President and CIO Emile Rashkovich. "Needless to say, fighting spam, viruses and other unwanted emails is a priority for us. We were using MIMEsweeper, and found that while it was pretty effective, it still required a lot of tweaking and updating. We wanted to eliminate the administrative overhead associated with a filter system, and two months ago we turned to Sendio, which doesn't require us to devote our support resources to constantly updating filter algorithms. This has allowed us to lower our overall costs." Kevin Bowyer, CEO of Sendio, said, "One of the critical flaws of filter-based systems is that the bad guys are always one step ahead. As a result, companies that provide filter-based systems are constantly updating and tweaking their systems, meaning that their customers have to endure the ongoing inconvenience of keeping current. Sendio is simple to use: just install it and forget about it." Sendio's I.C.E. Box is a stand-alone email security appliance that controls both the inbound and outbound flow of email messages. Incoming communications from known senders are authenticated, scanned for viruses and then delivered immediately to the appropriate inboxes. Email from previously unknown senders is "challenged" to verify that the sender is not an automated spam generator sending messages anonymously. Only legitimate email is forwarded on to the server. Similarly, outbound messages are checked to ensure that no "malware" is being sent inadvertently to other businesses. The I.C.E. Box scales from hundreds of users to tens of thousands, and can process email in any language. About Sendio, Inc. Sendio, Inc. is the developer of revolutionary email integrity products supporting enterprises that depend on email as a key tool for collaboration between employees, customers and partners. The Sendio(R) I.C.E. Box services appliance blocks 100% of spam with zero "false positive" lost messages, allowing businesses to have complete trust in their email communications. It was named the "Best of the Best" product of the year by Government Computer News. Sendio was founded in 2004 and is based in Irvine, Calif.
