SAN FRANCISCO, CA—February 28th, 2006—Realtimepublishers, the leader in corporate sponsored ePublishing, announces the immediate availability of The Tips and Tricks Guide to Secure Messaging, by Microsoft Exchange MVP Jim McBee, the result of a collaboration with Microsoft Corp. Microsoft Most Valuable Professionals are an annually recognized select group of active and credible experts in the online and offline technical communities that demonstrate a passion to share their expertise. This guide offers IT managers and messaging system administrators an introduction to the evolving threat landscape, emerging technologies for data protection, and best practices for protecting users, messaging system resources, and organizational data

“Threats against email systems have evolved to the point that protecting users, mail servers and bandwidth is no longer as simple as installing antivirus software. Private information can leak out of an organization just as easily as it can be shared within,” explains author Jim McBee. “By answering some of the most difficult questions involved in employing multiple layers of messaging security, firewall configurations, managed providers, spam protection, and controlling sensitive information, The Tips and Tricks Guide to Secure Messaging will assist all levels of IT professionals to ensure that their corporate messaging environment is more secure.”

The Tips and Tricks Guide to Secure Messaging covers the following topics:

Topic 1: Strategies for Defending Email Infrastructure
Topic 2: Policies and Procedures
Topic 3: Architecture and Deployment Considerations
Topic 4: Antivirus and Anti-Spam Strategies and Best Practices
Topic 5: Firewall Strategies and Best Practices
Topic 6: Protecting and Controlling Sensitive Information in Email

New volumes of the guide will be posted online as they are completed in order to offer the most relevant, technically accurate information available. As an exclusive provider, Microsoft will offer download access to the title at no charge from their website (http://www.microsoft.com/securemessaging). Realtimepublishers will also offer the title at their own Realtime Nexus eBook portal (http://nexus.realtimepublishers.com/TTGSM.htm).
