ReSoft Release Free White Paper on Perils in Spam Emails & How to Avoid Them

April 09, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
ReSoft International releases a free White Paper discussing the latest perils in Spam email and how to avoid them.

The paper highlights the fact that Spam message volumes have doubled over the past 12 months and are expected to triple in the near future and end users are seeing twice as much uncaught spam in their inboxes.

While most email filters are still catching the old style spam messages, they are working twice as hard. Image spam now accounts for 35% of spam and even if an image is recognized as spam and ‘fingerprinted’ as such, the image can be split or reconfigured, so that it will appear different each time.

Clive Horton, CEO of Re-Soft International, a trusted advisor in the challenging world of email security and archiving says “The cost of these evolving spam threats to a business is colossal’. "Organizations dare not be complacent, and must proactively address these dangers first and foremost through effective technology, but also through ongoing user education about the ever present spam problem”.

The free downloadable white paper discusses why image spam is so difficult to control and explains how the MXtreme suite of perimeter appliances, developed by Borderware and deployed by ReSoft International apply leading edge technologies to make significant reductions in image spam threats.
