Anti Spam

Anti spam solutions generally fall under two categories, client-based and server-based. Client-based tools allow each user to configure the software so that it can perform according to individual needs with it’s decentralized approach. Server-based solutions perform spam identification and filtering before legitimate emails are distributed to the intended recipients throughout the network thus reducing the impact that spam has on end-user productivity and on network resources.

Spyware: Know Your Enemy White Paper
By : MessageLabs Published Date: Dec 20, 2006
In order to better understand where spyware is going, or more importantly, where it’s evolved from, we actually need to wind the clock back a lot further than may be first imagined; in fact, over fifteen years. If we look at the embryonic stages of the anti-virus industry, around sixteen years ago there were the first boot-sector viruses. It has taken this time for viruses as we’ve traditionally known them to evolve towards the more commercially viable, or intellectual-property-theft status that we now associate with contemporary viruses, a fact not realized by many. This whitepaper goes in-depth to discuss the history of spyware and its evolving future.
