"As a long time user of the IMSS solution, sadly it was time to move on."

3/5

What do you like best about InterScan Messaging Security?

IMSS excels at the basic protection that it is designed to provide, i.e. antivirus and antispam. It is fairly easy to use and very granular. Rules management is done via a web console. The level of granularity is excellent, meaning it is possible to customise the rules at a deep granular level, perfect for admins who want a deep level of control of the email gateway and security features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about InterScan Messaging Security?

Sadly, IMSS has been falling behind the competition as of late, when it comes to the new types of threats (e.g. BEC) and modern protection measures needed to counter them (e.g. sandboxing, DLP, ...) The lack of updates and new features in the last couple of years makes me wonder if Trend Micro is still maintaining this product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering InterScan Messaging Security:

TrendMicro is one of the leaders for endpoint security. They have several rock-solid products, and InterScan Messaging Security is one of them. I have seen quarantined emails from bad actors that would have been delivered to their intended recipient without using IMS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is InterScan Messaging Security solving and how is that benefiting you?

Solves the problem of malicious emails by providing a good spam filter solution. Customization of policies I have created has stopped spear-phishing emails and payroll request changes from hackers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
