Leveraged on a patented, on-demand architecture, Google security and compliance services, powered by Postini, is provided on secure, offsite data centers that process all email, IM, and web messages in real-time. Highly accurate filters instantly scan for spam, viruses, worms, phishing, and other attacks, blocking overt threats, and diverting suspicious messages to an offsite quarantine. Messages can also be encrypted or copied to secure, offsite archives.

On average, Google customers experience an 85% reduction in email traffic, as malicious content is stopped before it ever reaches customer networks. Postini data centers have massive bandwidth, processing power, and storage capacity, delivering resiliency for even the largest attacks. Google’s on-demand approach provides tremendous cost savings and reliability benefits over on-premises hardware or software solutions.
