Virus and Spam Filtering

NetPlus Technologies is an authorized dealer for Postini, the world's leader in virus and spam filtering. It will successfully filter 90% of all unsolicited commercial email.

The Postini filtering service is on a cluster of special high-end servers that scans each message as it passes through, with no delay time. Offending or virused messages are 'quarantined.' The user can log in to a password-protected website and decide whether to delete it or deliver it to their desktop.

Since there is no hardware or software involved on the client's network, the service can be set up on any business that gets e-mail under their own domain name, and the client doesn't even need to change their current Internet Service Provider.

Over 90 percent of computer viruses are spread by e-mail, and new viruses are discovered every day. The economic impact of the 'Love Bug' virus alone was $8.7 billion. The NetPlus Technologies filtering service uses McAfee virus profiles that are constantly updated to scan messages for viruses before they ever reach the company's network, providing a 'first line of defense' for the network administrator.

Once a virus is detected, the user is immediately notified via email that a virus-infected message has been quarantined in their private, web-based message center. They can then safely view the contents of the message at no risk to their system or data.

Unsolicited Commercial E-mail (UCE), otherwise known as 'spam,' has grown to be the chief complaint among Internet users. America Online estimates that spam already accounts for more than 30 percent of e-mail to its members – as many as 24 million messages a day.

NetPlus Technologies filters spam using a complex set of heuristic rules and statistical weighting. On the client side, however, it's very simple. The users can set their filters to block sexual content, bulk e-mail, special offers, 'get rich quick' and racially insensitive content. The filters can also be set to lenient, moderate and aggresive. Users can also set up 'approved senders' and 'blocked senders.'

The costs involved with processing junk email and repairing infected computers has become more than just a nuisance. NetPlus Technologies projects that email-borne threats will continue to get worse. The longer an email user has an email address, the more spam they can expect, as spammers and authors of viruses become more sophisticated. NetPlus Technologies's unique pre-processing architecture provides protection, management, and enhanced functionality at the boundary of the customer's email infrastructure, ensuring uptime, efficiency, and email quality of service.
