Axigen already includes a wide range of security features, from authentication controls to advanced filtering. These protect against the majority of unwanted or malicious traffic. Even so, email remains one of the preferred methods for attackers to reach organizations. And while traditional filters handle a lot, they can sometimes fall short when a message relies on nuance or context.
This is where AxiMilterLLM steps in. It complements the existing Axigen security stack with an AI-powered layer that runs fully on-premise using Ollama. Your data never leaves your infrastructure, ensuring complete data sovereignty while enabling more context-aware analysis of tone, intent, and content. You also get to use the Ollama-compatible model that you prefer.
