"Spam is one of the most insidious problems with email today," says Zak Boca, CEO of SingleHop. "Not only does it place a load on servers, it dramatically cuts into productivity at the office. Assuming that the average user spends a mere 30 minutes a day dealing with spam, the numbers add up to a staggering annual loss in productivity. "
SingleHop says that 95 percent of the mail received and filtered is spam, which relieves 40 percent of the load on servers. The Barracuda Networks' spam appliance combines outbound keyword with regular expression scanning, outbound white listing and several advanced detection techniques. The solution helps organizations and ISPs to ensure that all outgoing email is legitimate and virus-free.
