Why is e-mail security critical?
• Messaging security as a lose-lose proposition, if no serious attack, senior management dismisses IT’s success as "just doing their job”
• If there is a failure, IT receives immediate negative feedback from senior management, employees, and outsiders
• Employee purchasing hidden infrastructure just makes things worse
• Freeware, shareware, & open source software just move the cost from purchasing to staffing

Antivirus Guidelines
Antivirus Guidelines• Always run a corporate antivirus software solutions.• Do not open suspicious file attachments• Do not open an e-mail message unless you know who
it is from. Opening it signals that your e-mail address is active, and more Spam will follow
• Do not reply to or forward junk e-mail• Be careful about giving out your e-mail address. If
possible, spell it out rather than use the @ symbol. For example: john at email dot com
• Investigate getting software to block and filter e-mail. Some are free, but you have to pay for the most sophisticated shields
• Always scan floppy drive from unknown source for viruses before using it.
