ANTISPAM / EMAIL CONTENT SECURITY / ANTIVIRUS SOFTWARE

Description
Since 1999, Praetor has proven to be an essential tool in helping Lotus Domino sites fight and reduce a growing Internet messaging problem – objectionable and destructive email. This includes unsolicited commercial advertisements (spam), offensive content, confidential company information and virus-infected attachments. Praetor exceeds the security capabilities found in any version of Lotus Domino and augments your existing antivirus software. The supplied Praetor rules detect techniques used by spammers beyond simple word and phrase analysis. By examining the message content -- all headers and body -- Praetor notes the presence and absence of key information. Praetor uses several antispam tactics that provide multiple layers of email protection: Bayesian statistical analysis to compute the probability that a message is spam Heuristic analysis of message header and body content to detect common spam techniques Site-specific whitelists and blacklists Multiple DNS blacklist servers with bypass option Additional default rules and templates developed after CMS’ study of thousands of spam messages	Administrators can easily customize default rules or create new rules through the Praetor rules wizard. This wizard lets you define email direction, conditions, actions and exceptions for any rule. In a few short steps, new filtering conditions can also be created to address the specific non-spam needs of your site: Scan for leaks of proprietary information Detect profanity or unacceptable language Add the same or different disclaimers based on certain conditions Create automatic replies Archive all or specific messages Send notices matching specific criteria Two default rules are provided to examine messages containing attachments, testing for those matching certain filename and extension patterns. These rules have been totally effective in stopping viruses before they pass to the local users. Praetor is a highly effective, price competitive and flexible email content security solution.
