IKARUS mail.security is a cloud-based secure email gateway that filters inbound and outbound email traffic for a domain. It is designed to block malware, spam, malicious URLs, and advanced threats like ransomware and Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) by routing traffic through its servers. The system utilizes multi-stage, real-time analysis, sandboxing environments for executing suspicious datasets, threat intelligence evaluation, and URL click-time protection.
The solution is administered via a centralized, multi-tenant web portal for managing routing rules, SMTP authentication, and Transport Layer Security (TLS) settings, including TLS 1.2 minimums. Administrators can configure content policies such as attachment restrictions and HTML sanitization, and manage S/MIME certificates for automated email signing and encryption. The platform provides SMTP logging, role-based access control, and offers automated synchronization of domains, mailboxes, and routes with Microsoft 365.
