Pervasive Solutions’ “spamARMOR” Anti-Spam Service Blocks One Millionth Junk Email

December 26, 2006 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
ROCHESTER, NY – December 26, 2006 – Pervasive Solutions, LLC announces that their spamARMOR anti-spam protection service has successfully removed one million spam email messages that were addressed to their clients since the service began in February, 2006. These million spam messages represented 87% of all incoming emails for their clients.
The spamARMOR service, which operates between the internet and the client’s email system, automatically reviews each incoming email and quarantines any messages it deems as spam. At a rate of 89% spam, roughly eight out of every nine email messages clients are receiving are spam. As a result of the success of the spamARMOR service, Pervasive Solutions’ clients report noticeable increases in productivity and decreases in frustration.

“This process has been an incredible time saver for me. I no longer need to sort through hundreds of spam messages each week,” says Priscilla Baker Jones, Principal at Occam Capital Management investment advisors. “spamARMOR has increased my productivity by an additional two to three hours each week – and that is just me. Multiply this by each member of my staff, and the savings is huge.”

According to Steve vonBerg, President of Pervasive Solutions, “We are thrilled that spamARMOR has been so effective in preventing unwanted email from cluttering our clients’ inboxes. Using conservative estimates, spamARMOR saves our users an average of over 100 hours per year.”

In addition to the productivity savings, spamARMOR has also reduced the security risks facing these companies while helping them meet regulatory requirements. “Obtaining spamARMOR from Pervasive Solutions has been great! Not only has it stopped the spam messages, it has afforded time previously spent on trying to maintain internal spam filters to be focused elsewhere for our organization's growth," says Margi Roach, Information Systems Coordinator for South Dayton Acute Care Consultants, Inc. in Dayton, Ohio. "So many of these spam messages are gateways to malicious and criminal activity. And it is also imperative for our organization to meet HIPAA regulations. By removing these opportunities of exposure from our users’ mailboxes, we insulate our organization from malware, phishing and other security threats that might otherwise cost us our entire business and meet our regulatory requirements at the same time. I highly recommend their services.”

spamARMOR is a subscription-based service that is currently serving clients in eleven states across the country. spamARMOR can be deployed in less than one day anywhere in the United States and Canada.
