F-Secure® introduces a new, easy to use, automatic spam filtering solution for corporate customers

F-Secure® Spam Control(tm) transparently and automatically detects and filters annoying and offensive spam messages from email traffic, and frees time for productive work in organizations.

F-Secure Corporation has released new versions of its award winning email content security solutions. The new versions of F-Secure Internet Gatekeeper(tm) and F-Secure Anti-Virus for Microsoft Exchange(tm) introduce major improvements, including the possibility to automatically detect and filter spam and other unwanted messages from incoming email traffic.

The amount of junk messages flooding into user's mailboxes is rapidly becoming one of the biggest challenges in IT administration. For this reason the possibility to automatically filter out annoying spam messages from email traffic is today an extremely important part of any comprehensive email security solution. F-Secure is helping organizations to get rid of the spam problem by introducing a new solution that will detect spam and remove it from the end users inbox.

F-Secure Spam Control can be installed as an option to F-Secure's email content scanning solutions that already today provide virus detection and removal capabilities to organizations around the world with world-leading response times to new threats. Working alongside F-Secure's virus scanning engines, F-Secure Spam Control engine detects spam automatically using advanced content analysis and categorization. Messages that are found to be spam by F-Secure Spam Control are marked at the gateway level so that they can later be placed to specific spam folders in the user's mail client.
The end users remain in control of the messages and have the ability to retrieve and view spam tagged messages if needed. High accuracy spam detection rates are achieved and maintained by scanning email using advanced content analysis, combining multiple filtering mechanisms and updating the product with frequent automatic updates from the F-Secure Anti-Spam Lab.

"Our aim was to make a solution that is easy to install, use and maintain, and that would integrate tightly with our existing products making it a complete email security solution for our corporate customers. The feedback we have received from our early beta customers indicates that we have succeeded in our objective", says Ari Alakiuttu, the Business Channel Director at F-Secure.

Josmaarten Swinkels, CEO of Inter Engineering, comments “Inter Engineering has been active in the fight against Spam for years already. We are very happy with the extension of the F-Secure product portfolio with such a high-quality Anti Spam solution. F-Secure Spam Control makes our solution offering even more flexible and complete.”

F-Secure Spam Control can be purchased as an add-on to the F-Secure Internet Gatekeeper and F-Secure Anti-Virus for Microsoft Exchange products.
