Spam: A threat no matter how you slice it.

If you've used a computer, you've been spammed. While we're all used to cleaning up with a few hits of the Delete button, few actually stop to consider the hidden dangers of spam. Spam can cause productivity to plummet, network storage to evaporate, and email system costs to skyrocket. It can even contribute to a network crash. Your mission is clear: stop spam NOW!

Spam wastes time. According to a recent survey of employees who use email*, more than 40 percent average nearly 50 minutes each day managing all of the email they receive. When nearly one of every three messages sent these days is spam, it's easy to see how companies can increase productivity by eliminating occupational spam

 

Spam wastes resources. Spam is not just annoying - it displaces normal email and wastes networking resources. Large amounts of spam can consume your company's storage, compromise your organization's resources to handle legitimate Internet email, and increase email system costs. And with a general increase in the amount of business email, spam can be a major factor in server crashes and denial-of-service issues.

 

Spam harms your corporate image. Spammers frequently pass email through corporate SMTP relays to stamp email messages with the corporation's Internet address - making it appear as if that company was the initiator of the message. This can cause incalculable damage to your corporate image and customer relations.
