Cyberoam Q1 E-mail Threat Trend Report
By VARIndia Correspondent
Cyberoam has announced that its Q1 2008 e-mail threat trend report, prepared in collaboration with partner Commtouch, reveals that malware distributors and spammers are now hiding their unwanted messages within legitimate-appearing

Websites and messages. These tactics include pharma spam camouflaged as Hotmail welcome letters, blogspot redirects to malware sites, hidden malware sites in search result URLs, hosted spam images on Flickr accounts and spear-phishing scams using Google and Yahoo! Calendar standards. All of these methods deploy social and psychological engineering strategies to take advantage of user trust and behaviour. On average, more than 350,000 zombies were newly activated each day to facilitate this activity.

Cyberoam provides a multi-layered defence against such attacks. A Commtouch RPD-based Anti-spam engine filters all mail. Cyberoam also features content filtering protection by adding URLs in custom categories to block the spread of the threat. Additionally, Cyberoam features Anti-virus protection to block malware downloads.

Cyberoam uses the Commtouch RPD technology to analyze large volumes of Internet traffic in real-time. Its language and content agnostic nature enables it to provide effective spam blocking capabilities.
