Serving Up Healthy, Spam-Free Email at One of the Nation's Top Universities

Category: Software and Web Development, Security

Tags: false positives, email security, spam, email, network

Overview Founded in 1876, the Johns Hopkins University was the first research university in the United States. University was tasked with complying with regulatory requirements, principally the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). By working with IronPort, the Messaging Team at Hopkins was able to resolve users' security issues, while ensuring regulatory compliance. With four IronPort C60 email security appliances, two on each primary campus, the Johns Hopkins network perimeter is well protected. Inbound spam reaching internal servers has been reduced by more than 95 percent, and false positives have dropped to zero.
