The Problem: Spam is Growing, Unchecked
According to Ferris Research, spam and viruses now account more than 90% of all email. In addition spam continues to increase at alarming rates year over year. Why does it continue to grow? Profit driven hackers and spammers continue to invest in driving the quantity of spam and developing new techniques to bypass spam filters. Spam is no longer an advertising tool. It is used by criminals to hack into secure systems at universities, businesses, and retail outlets. Spammers can make tens of thousands of dollars per month preying on the public.Many innocent recipients still don.t realize that they are sending information just by clicking on email documents. Viruses, spam, and phishing schemes result in lost productivity, lost business, security violations, and increased capital drains to businesses every day.

The cost of spam is estimated to exceed $50 billion in the U.S. alone. Businesses in the U.S. spent $1,500 $2,000 per employee to fight spam and viruses. That is up significantly from the $600 - $800 spent in previous years. Spam and other message based threats are growing proportionally and have far reaching global effects and business implications.
