Advanced email security protects both ends of email reception, from datacenter/cloud mail servers to edge devices, with SEG analysis and client-side user inbox agent.

MINEOLA, N.Y., Aug. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — RevBits, a unifying cybersecurity company for enterprise endpoints, cloud and on-premises ecosystems, today announced the launch of RevBits Secure Email Gateway (SEG), adding an additional layer to its existing, client-side email security. Customers now have the capability to defend against sophisticated malicious emails from the point of email reception, down to the user inbox.

RevBits Email Security – Single Vendor, Double Protection

• RevBits Secure Email Gateway – is cloud-based and globally deployed for high availability and dynamic scalability.
• RevBits User Inbox Protection – is a client installed application that runs locally, the admin panel is SaaS-delivered, which protects against highly sophisticated malicious emails at the most dangerous point – the endpoint.

A robust multi-layered email security approach, RevBits Email Security enables a unified end-to-end security chain that captures, analyzes and blocks the most sophisticated malicious emails – from on-premise and cloud email servers, to user inboxes at the furthest points of the network edge. All features and functions are unified within a single-view dashboard, accessed through the secure admin portal.

“Cybersecurity requires a layered, multi-functional approach, and email is the cornerstone for enterprise protection, as the vast majority of malware comes through email phishing attacks,” said David Schiffer, RevBits CEO. “Unifying RevBits SEG with our client-side email security, is a case where the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.”

“RevBits’ solution design and enhancements are all about choice, flexibility, and thorough security,” said Mucteba Celik, RevBits CTO. “When we decided to add SEG to our client-side email security the goal was to provide a complete email security solution, closing security gaps, and addressing the worrisome reality that malware is still overwhelmingly delivered via email. Full protection is now delivered.”

SHANGHAI, Aug. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Shanghai Electric announced this International Friendship Day that the firm will continue its unremitting efforts to promote Sino-Pakistani friendship and contribute to local communities in Pakistan.

On March 28th, a fire broke out in the remote Varwai village in Islamkot Tharparkar district in Sindh province, Pakistan. Due to the dry climate of the region, the fire instantly spread throughout the whole village. However, the fire-fighting facilities in the remote village were quite limited.

Shanghai Electric’s Thar coal mine and Thar power plants in Pakistan are not far from the village. Upon learning about the fire, the project team activated their fire emergency rescue plan, setting up a temporary fire rescue command, giving emergency rescue instructions and organizing fire trucks and firefighters who rushed to the scene of the fire.

They helped 38 families and 86 houses through the ordeal. In addition, the company also offered technical and safety education and training programs, Chinese language and other classes in practical matters for local employees, in an effort to upskill members of the local communities, as well as facilitate cultural exchanges and deepen the friendship between the two countries.

Shanghai Electric’s fire-fighting heroes lend a helping hand, demonstrating Sino-Pakistani friendship

The team made a quick study of the fire situation, which led to finalizing the best rescue plan – getting water from nearby draining wells and quickly transporting it to the affected village with 50-cubic-meter sprinkler trucks. After solving the problem of the water supply, they sought to cut off the sources of combustible materials in and around the wood storage site to finally be able to put out the blaze. As soon as the plan was confirmed, the project department of the Thar coal mine assembled the employees, and dispatched 6 sprinklers, 4 loaders and 52 rescuers to support the firefighting effort.

As the fire was more severe than expected, the department immediately sent a request for reinforcements to the Thar power station project department, which dispatched two high-pressure fire trucks and an additional contingent of firefighters to the scene.

The focus was to save people’s lives first and protect property later, to reduce the possibility of human casualties. After more than 6 hours of arduous efforts, 38 families and 86 houses in the village were rescued without any casualties among the firefighters.

The firefighting effort is only a microcosm of Shanghai Electric’s commitment to fulfilling their social responsibilities and serving local communities. Since the launch of the Thar coal mine project and Thar power station project, Shanghai Electric has organized various public service activities to benefit the local populace.

The company has provided financial and material resources, as well as engineers and technicians, locally as part of the overall plan to supply guidance to Pakistani employees for best practices when undertaking construction projects. To overcome language barriers and the restrictions at and around the construction site, they trained the locals on-site and in person, with the aim of creating a team of highly qualified Pakistani professionals.

The company provided a series of education and training programs, including safety education and training on safe operations of construction equipment for civil engineering, on basic electrical insTharlations and on operations and construction rules. These efforts have not only contributed to the bettering of the local communities, but have also laid a solid foundation for the deepening friendship between China and Pakistan.
