Email Security & Mail Servers

Most attacks start with an email. We filter dangerous messages before they reach the inbox and make sure nobody can send email in your name.

Sound familiar?

With properly configured SPF, DKIM and DMARC, your emails arrive reliably, and spoofed messages using your domain are rejected. On request, we run your entire mail server in Switzerland.

Then we are the right partner.

  • Your team regularly receives spam or phishing emails.
  • Your emails end up in your customers’ spam folders.
  • Someone has already sent fake invoices in your name.
  • You need to archive email in compliance with the law.

  • Mail gateway

    An upstream filter against spam, viruses and phishing, with a quarantine your staff can review themselves.

  • SPF, DKIM and DMARC

    We set up sender authentication and continuously analyse DMARC reports.

  • Your own mail server

    Email, calendars and contacts on servers in Switzerland, compatible with Outlook and smartphones.

  • Email archiving

    Tamper-proof storage of all emails in line with Swiss retention requirements.

Mail gateway for SMEs

A mail gateway sits in front of your mail server or Microsoft 365 and checks every message before it reaches the inbox. Phishing and malware never get to your staff.

SPF, DKIM and DMARC explained
  • Multi-stage filtering

    Reputation lists, content analysis, virus scanning and SPF, DKIM and DMARC checks run one after another.

  • Dangerous attachments

    Executables, macro documents and nested archives are blocked or quarantined.

  • Self-service quarantine

    Everyone receives a daily report and can release wrongly filtered emails themselves.

  • Run in Switzerland

    The gateway runs on servers in Switzerland or on your premises. Your emails do not pass through foreign filtering services.

Email archiving under GeBüV

Business emails such as invoices, quotes, contracts and orders are part of your business records. Under the Swiss Code of Obligations and the Ordinance on Business Records (GeBüV) they generally have to be kept for ten years, unaltered and readable at any time.

Which records must be kept and for how long depends on your business. If in doubt, check with your fiduciary; we take care of the technical side.

  • Complete

    All incoming and outgoing emails are archived automatically, before anyone can delete them.

  • Tamper-proof

    Each email gets a checksum when archived. Any later change would be detected.

  • Traceable

    Access, exports and restores are logged, as the GeBüV requires.

  • Easy to find

    Full-text search across all mailboxes, including former employees and past years.

Frequently asked questions

Your question is not listed? Ask us directly.

Does this work with Microsoft 365?

Yes. The mail gateway and DMARC setup can be placed in front of any mail system.

What does DMARC actually do?

Recipients can verify that an email really comes from you. Fake invoices or payment requests in your name are rejected.

Is the mailbox enough as an archive?

No. Emails in a mailbox can be deleted or changed. An archive stores them separately, unaltered and searchable, even after staff leave.
