ISA Server 2000 Feature Pack 1

ISA Server Feature Pack 1 delivers enhanced security and ease of use beyond that of traditional firewalls for e-mail server, Web server and Exchange Outlook Web Access (OWA) deployments. E-mail server security is enhanced by the improved ability to help filter out unwanted e-mail messages. ISA Server with Feature Pack 1 provides protection for remote Outlook users accessing Exchange Server over untrusted networks without a VPN. Improved authentication and protection from evolving types of Internet attacks enables ISA Server to better secure Web and OWA servers. New wizards, scenario walkthroughs and technical documentation make configuration easier and answer commonly asked questions.

Included in ISA Server Feature Pack 1:

• Enhanced SMTP filter

• Enhanced Exchange RPC filter (RPC encryption and Outbound RPC)

• URLScan 2.5 for ISA Server

• RSA SecurID authentication

• Basic authentication delegation

• OWA wizard

• RPC filter configuration wizard
