Service providers, resellers and VARs can make a serious margin through a new company and service launched today. Advascan is a new online managed service, providing assured email integrity for business. With a specific focus on the channel, Advascan is offering an alternative to the high cost of managing email security.

Henry Forde, sales director at Advascan said:

	Single inexpensive integrated solution for email integrity - antivirus and antispam
	Fully outsourced, managed service
	Heuristic analysis identifies and traps new viruses before signatures are available
	Improves employee productivity by cutting spam and downtime caused by viral attacks
	Releases bandwidth and network resources otherwise occupied by spam
	Sophisticated web-based statistical tool gives customers instant analysis of email and viral traffic
	Management tools give customers direct control over their viral and spam scanning
	Frees up in-house IT staff to focus on other projects

Additionally, an Advascan server can be deployed on-site for customers who need scanning carried out at a specific corporate location. This server can be co-managed by local IT managers as well as Advascan's technical centre, which monitors all traffic for new threats.

Advascan's centred approach means that customers are instantly and globally protected as soon as a viral threat is identified in any part of the network.
