How our Email Image Filter Works
Email Image Control Service employs multi-layered filtering technologies and image signaturing to give you a tool to help enforce acceptable usage policy.
Image composition analysis harnesses techniques for facial recognition, body positioning and texture and flesh tone analysis to generate results that are processed by a complex scoring system to block or pass images. This approach is especially effective at detecting pornographic images.
All incoming and outgoing emails are directed through MessageLabs platform, hosted in secure data centers worldwide
Images embedded in or attached to an email are scanned to assess their compliance with your acceptable usage policy, local rules and specific requirements
Any email which triggers a rule is subjected to a range of possible actions, such as ‘block/delete’ and ‘redirect to administrator’
All email which doesn’t trigger a rule is permitted to pass, with no noticeable delay
Reports summarizing data collected and actions taken by the service can be generated easily
