Grey Listing - a Revolutionary Anti-spam Filter

One of the market's leading providers of network security appliances, Danish SecPoint, now introduces the revolutionary Grey Listing anti-spam technique. The Grey Listing technique detects and blocks 75 to 85 percent of all spam before it even enters the network.

SecPoint introduces a Grey Listing system detecting and blocking 75 to 85 per cent of all spam before it enters the network hereby allowing the users to avoid spending costly time removing it from their mail boxes.

- Grey Listing is a method that blocks substantial portions of spam with no use of complicated analyses or other methods tending to contain errors, explains Secpoint’s managing director, Victor Christiansen, from his head office in Denmark.

Victor Christiansen goes on:

Spam sources do not act like normal mail clients. The Grey Listing technique works by verifying the legitimacy of the sender whereas most of today’s known techniques only focuses on the content of the mails. With the Grey Listing technique a mail from a sender will be rejected right away. If the mail is legitimate it will automatically be reforwarded and become whitelisted by the Grey Listing system and then be delivered. The next time the mail is being sent the Grey Listing has already whitelisted the mail and it will be delivered right away.

- In brief the theory is that most spammers do not use their own mail servers, but use compromised computer systems also called zombie computers. Those zombie computers are then used to send large amounts of spam using a valid return email address.

The systems that are typically being used to send out spam are compromised Windows computers. When spam is being sent from a compromised system the spam is typically only being sent once and will fail to look like a valid mail explains Victor Christiansen.

In short: Grey Listing will benefit your everyday routines by eliminating the costly extra time spent on dealing with spam.

The revolutionary Grey Listing anti-spam system is easy to use. One click and it starts doing its job. This feature is free of charge for every user with a SecPoint Protector and a valid license.
