Commtouch Reputation Service: Fighting in the Gray Zone
"There is an immediate market need for accurate, trustworthy reputation services, in order to block the rising tide of spam and email-borne viruses flooding enterprises and service providers. There are high barriers to entry for any company that wishes to offer effective reputation services. These include deep knowledge of email security, and access to vast historical and real-time information about global email traffic. An offering such as Commtouch's Reputation Service can enable organizations to eliminate the vast majority of unwanted traffic at the perimeter, providing significant savings in bandwidth and IT resources."

IDC Study, "Zero-Hour Virus Protection: Defending Against the Unknown"
"As their development cycles average about 10 hours, signatures developed against new, rapidly propagating attacks can only slow an outbreak but cannot prevent the mass infection in the first hours. Emerging technologies such as Commtouch's Zero-Hour Virus Protection could have an important role in mitigating those risks."

Survey outlining the impacts of messaging and web threats
"Because email is so critical, and because other communication tools – instant messaging, wikis, blogs, VoIP, collaboration tools and other capabilities – are becoming more widely used, attacks directed against these channels threaten the very ability of individuals and companies to communicate or protect their sensitive data."

October 2007, White Paper presented at VB 2007 conference: "The Marriage of Spam and Malware: Implications for SMTP Malware Defence" Published in Virus Bulletin magazine: © Copyright 2007 Virus Bulletin Ltd. Once considered two distinct entities, spam and email-borne malware are becoming increasingly similar. Both take advantage of email as a primary means of mass-distribution, and both use botnets to launch outbreaks and evade detection. As attacks continue to get bigger, faster and more severe, the industry must reassess the strategy of defending against each type of threat individually. |

Containing Spam – The Local Challenge Published in Virus Bulletin magazine: © Copyright 2006 Virus Bulletin Ltd. "The escalating war between spammers and anti-spam technologies has spawned multiple generations of anti-spam techniques. Each new spam-fighting technology is invented, launched, and marketed with great fanfare, yet eventually it is overcome by spammers and needs to be either replaced or improved."
