MailGuard ImageGuard

MailGuard ImageGuard is a real-time image analysis and policy compliance engine that scans all image files passing through a corporate email server. It is designed to detect and manage illicit or inappropriate images — such as pornographic content — within email traffic, helping organizations reduce legal liability and enforce acceptable use policies. Key functions include: - Scanning inbound and outbound email image attachments in real time - Differentiating illicit images from legitimate business images using analysis technology - Logging metadata for flagged content, including sender, recipient, date, and time - Supporting enforcement of Acceptable Use Policies (AUPs) by identifying high-risk senders and receivers ImageGuard operates as part of MailGuard's broader email filtering platform and is intended to help organizations meet duty-of-care obligations toward employees, preserve email archives free of illicit content for regulatory compliance, and reduce unnecessary bandwidth consumption caused by inappropriate image files. The product targets enterprise environments where network administrators need visibility into image content flowing through email systems, and where companies face potential legal or reputational consequences from unmonitored image exchanges. It positions itself as a management and compliance tool rather than purely a security tool, addressing workplace policy, HR risk, and regulatory requirements alongside technical email filtering.
