The unique content-agnostic technology detects and blocks spam in any language and is highly effective against image-based spam. Rather than evaluating the content of messages, the Commtouch Detection Center analyzes large volumes of Internet traffic in real-time, recognizing and protecting against new spam outbreaks the moment they emerge.
