Spam, phishing scams, and email-based virus attacks continue to plague companies by hindering user productivity and draining email server and network resources. The ANTI SPAM regulations have not hampered the efforts of spammers. In fact, spam continues to increase despite the legislation, mainly because of the diffi culty in prosecuting these spammers, many of whom are located in foreign countries. Another silent killer of server and network resources are malicious connection attacks such as denial of service (DoS) or intrusion attacks such as directory harvest (DHA). Sydney Technology Solutions’ Email Protection Service offers a level of protection that stops malicious attacks and unwanted probes, dramatically reduces spam and viruses, provides real-time monitoring and reporting, and ensures no messages are lost during an unexpected mail server outage.
