VIRTUAL ENVIROMENTS with iceWEB
NavigateStorage now offers iceWEB, a virtualized server infrastructure, with a wide range of flexibility and reliability advantages to environments of all sizes, but in order to make the most of the virtual infrastructure, you need shared storage. Features such as live migration of virtual machines require a shared storage pool, but the advantages of using shared storage in a virtual environment run much deeper.
Supporting a virtual server environment with shared storage:
* Simplifies management of the environment
* Provides the data availability required for a virtualized environment
* Enables efficient backup
Centralize storage and VM management tasks ARE EASY with the IceWEB Storage System 5000. The all-inclusive storage management feature set combined with IceWEB's VM Manager -- a unified management console for controlling all storage-related aspects of a virtualized infrastructure for VMware ESX, Citrix Xen, and Microsoft Hyper-V environments – is a perfect complement to your virtual server environment.

Red Condor a closer look at Hosted
Over the years, email filters became a crucial factor in allowing us to open our in-boxes without cringing. It doesn't matter how careful you are about giving out your email address, it will eventually find itself on spam lists and you'll be subjected to the barrage of worthless and malicious emails that you would rather do without.
Owners of private e-mail addresses hosted on web-based email services usually don't even have to think about filtering - the service probably thought of that. If you work at a big company that has its own IT department, you won't have to think about filtering, but if you own a small business or have a small IT budget and team, you might consider a Software-as-a-Service solution.Red Condor's Hosted Service is a good choice.
It's actually very simple to set up and extremely effective, and will prevent you becoming a target of spam, viruses, phishing schemes, offensive content, and other threats.
It works like this: you redirect your MX records to Red Condor's servers. There the emails are filtered and only the legitimate ones are passed on to your mail server. Real-time knowledge gathered from a worldwide sensor network is used to create heavy-duty filter rules.The filters analyze emails by content, keywords and behavior to separate the wheat from the chaff - so to speak.You don't have to think about software or hardware installation, or even about filter tuning- and in case one of your email servers goes down, Red Condor stores your email for up to 96 hours until your server is brought back online.
Another great feature is outbound mail filtering,so if a PC in your network gets infected and turns into a "zombie", it will prevent the spam-sending activity and notify the administrator immediately.After registering and logging in, you access your account through a simple and very user-friendly web interface/portal.The first step is adding an account. You will be asked to input account information - name and address. Primary contact information is also required, but technical, admin and billing contact information is optional. The person that opens the account is automatically assigned administrator privileges.

Windows Management Sooftware
AutoVirt is a software platform for Windows that provides storage management control from a web-based console. Use AutoVirt to automate and expedite:
Data Measurement
Copying
Migration
Replication
Archiving
AutoVirt provides:
A solution for managing unstructured Windows file data
A way to extend the native functionality of inexpensive, commodity Windows hardware
Integration with mainframe NAS devices, including NetApp and EMC Celerra
Out-of-band runtime operations, with no client agents
An intelligent client referral service with perpetual support for client UNC names and embedded links
Using AutoVirtBy ensuring that users have a consistent point of access to their data, AutoVirt allows IT administrators to automate the movement of data within their Windows storage environments. As administrators move data to where they need it to be – business-critical data to a new device, a replica to a secondary location, last year’s share to Tier 2 storage – clients are automatically redirected to the new location of their data. By eliminating impact on end-users, AutoVirt removes a number of logistical barriers to project execution and frees IT to approach storage management more dynamically. With AutoVirt, IT administrators can design policies to automate data measurement, copying, migration, replication, and archiving. A policy is a series of logical and validation commands defined using a GUI-based wizard. Policies are schedulable and include configurable e-mail alerts and exception handling. How it worksAutoVirt inserts a global namespace to organize networked shares and shield end-users from the back-end logistics of storage management. The namespace eliminates the manual work involved in maintaining client access to networked data: it is the single authority on networked files, and automatically resolves client shortcuts to the new location. With AutoVirt’s global namespace registering all changes to data location, it is possible to automate many storage management tasks – including those that affect data location. The AutoVirt policy engine is responsible for automating data measurement, copying, migration, replication, and archiving.AutoVirt’s namespace and policy engine interact with both clients and networked file servers using the Common Internet File System (CIFS) protocol.

Kaspersky Lab’s rapid response times to new threats was confirmed during testing by the AV-Test.org research group for PC World magazine. The test showed that Kaspersky Lab’s response time to the outbreak of new malicious programs was less than two hours, while the nearest competitor reacted to new threats in 2-4 hours.
Average response time to new threats (hours)"The high level of malware detection by Kaspersky Lab products is attained by a combination of signature technology and proactive detection. To ensure that the signature method is effective, an antivirus solution developer has to respond extremely quickly to the outbreak of new malicious code.

Email Archive Migration
The decision to move to a new e-mail or archiving service should not be constrained by the risk of losing data. Similarly the need to move users between different locations or archive products (e.g. as a result of a re-location or merger) should not threaten the accessibility or manageability of your corporate data.TransVault™ is a high-performance software application that securely migrates and consolidates e-mail and other related records from one environment to another, ensuring future accessibility - regardless of the chosen archive, messaging platform or storage medium.
Migration is fast and entirely transparent to users, eliminating the risk of downtime and significantly reducing the costs and IT overheads normally associated with moving large amounts of data.TransVault also avoids the costs and inconvenience of maintaining ‘islands of data’, allowing the lifecycle of information to be centrally managed and any e-discovery requests to be conducted against a single data repository.TransVault is the key to ensuring 100% data availability with 100% user transparency, whilst minimizing risks and costs to your business.
A Next-Generation Approach to Email Archiving
A Next-Generation Approach to Email Archiving
Existing archiving solutions place heavy burdens on Exchange servers, relying on data capture methods like MAPI crawls and journaling – both of which can increase input/output per second (IOPS) on the Exchange server by up to 50%. Mimosa NearPoint for Microsoft Exchange incorporates an innovative data capture method called Continuous Application Shadowing™.
Continuous Application Shadowing instantly captures Exchange log files once they are committed to disk and stores them “off-host” on NearPoint. It is an application-intelligent process, which also blocks corruption from the back-up copy. All email content extracted from the log files is indexed and stored with single-instance storage. Furthermore, Continuous Application Shadowing captures complete mailbox information including calendar items, tasks, contacts, and item histories."
