Idalis' learning curve based network effect is the first of its kind to instantly identify message URL's and spam botnets with one sample based on its static characteristics. Idalis also detects one sample per each traditional "spam kings" network in real time, allowing the blocking of 15-20 percent of all worldwide spam sent from spammer-friendly leased networks [non-botnet infections]. Twenty to thirty percent of Idalis' reputation data including "spam king" tracking isn't listed in over 120 free or commercial based blacklists based on regular automated and manual comparison checks at http://www.dnsstuff.com as well as http://www.mxtoolbox.com/blacklists.aspx.

By blocking all malicious e-mails from these sources before the messages can be sent or need secondary filtering, including the body signatures spammers use to achieve their goals, Idalis can greatly reduce enterprise costs, increase spammer costs, and lower spammer sales to the point that spamming an Idalis-protected site has become cost-ineffective.

By ruining the spammers resources, we ruin the spam, fraud, and viruses they are trying to spread.

With Idalis, you can:

I. Keep a documented 99.99 percent of spam from entering your users' inboxes, 85+ percent from connecting to your network, and 97-99 percent from utilizing storage resources on your appliance, servers, archiving, or inbox. Top performance is vitally important since allowing just one malicious email through your network could be catastrophic.

II. Practically eliminate sender-authorization and challenge response management so e-mail users can focus on business and achieve higher levels of productivity and time savings.

III. Leverage a powerful Idalis managed network effect to multiply our global threat-protection power and defend all Idalis users at once based on the source IP address and message URL which represent 99 percent of all malicious spam e-mail.

IV. Maintain false-positive rates at virtually zero, consistent with other popular e-mail security products.

V. Protect your network and business from botnets that pose an internal threat to your users, business reputation, and internal data leakage.

Idalis Anti-Spammer System

The Idalis Anti-Spammer System blocks the spammer, not just the spam.

Idalis Software's sophisticated proprietary detection engine constantly feeds a real-time, self-evolving database of malicious and unwanted data signatures. This database is magnitudes larger and more comprehensive than any other of its kind in the industry both commericial and community driven. Its expansive collection of data is leveraged to protect our customers from electronic threats, both external to and within Idalis customer sites.Idalis' URL database tracks the actual spammers profile including their supporting registrars, which can be shut down due to abuse and complaints sent to internet authoritys and law enforcement services. Idalis stops spammers, which stops the spam they send.

The Anti-Spammer System performs several effective, never-before-used processes to "devalue" non-compliant spam, fraud, and other undesired message characteristics.

ViDentify™ Message Virus Attachment Identity and Comparison
ViDentify provides two levels of protection. It leverages Idalis' robust data resources to detect, evaluate, and verify mass mailings containing similar unknown malicious attachments. As threats are discovered, ViDentify issues containment updates defining these viruses to prevent further spreading and infections.
Real Time URL (SURBL) Filter and Confirmation Staff
Every "blast" of messages detected and sorted by Anti-Spammer alerts our Network Operations Center, which performs an automatic or human review of ONE unique sample message. This proprietary process examines any websites or redirects, and adds those characteristics to the real-time database of blocked domains and IP addresses. classification of spammers sending characteristics, all in real-time permanently shutting their botnets, networks, and websites down rendering them worthless across the internet. This process does not identify any original recipients or client's message characteristics, maintaining 100 percent e-mail privacy and compliance standards.
Algorithm Filtering Engine
Idalis has implemented a version of the widely heralded CRM114 Discriminator, developed by William Yerazunis at MIT. This highly accurate spam-filtering engine performs initial detection tasks and is only needed for the one-to-three percent of new malicious e-mail that isn't pre-identified by the Idalis Reputation Blacklist Services. Idalis' Reputation Services of IP addresses and URLs can block and filter thousands of spam messages per second, thus reducing CPU load, storage usage, and greatly increasing the scalability of any e-mail security implementation
Realtime Client and Community Network Effect
Idalis customers benefit from a powerful community network effect that multiplies Idalis' threat-protection power. As spam and malware are identified at one Idalis site, all other sites running Idalis are instantaneously protected from that threat in real time. Idalis has partnered with major network providers to analyze spam bound for over 100,000 domains and growing. This effect also fortifies Idalis' intelligent database to continuously improve its anti-spam/virus performance for even greater user protection every day. As spam levels increase, Idalis' system and services becomes more effective, not the opposite, as with legacy technologies and systems.

Idalis' Anti-Spammer System software and cloud hosted offering is compatible with any Windows, Novell, or Linux based based internal or external messaging platform including Sendmail, Qmail, Microsoft Exchange, Icewarp Merak, Sendmail, Lotus Domino and other RFC compliant messaging systems.

Idalis' Network Reputation Services leverages the same intricate detection process and reputation database used in the Anti-Spammer System to find computers within your own network that have been infected with viruses and are sending spam or other malicious e-mail. Once identified, Idalis will provide your organization with a report listing compromised computer devices and describing the fix that will return them to full operation. Idalis Anti-Botnet Services
Idalis' Anti-Botnet plug-in, BrowseSafe for Internet Explorer is currently in development and will complement our network reputation service by automatically blocking communication with and removing unidentified malware from inside the network. Most anti-virus and firewall implementations fail to block or remove these elusive and destructive botnet viruses because the botnets change signatures rapidly and are encrypted, making them impossible to scan or detect with legacy products. Idalis has identified small-business, Fortune 500, ISP, and government networks each containing dozens to thousands of these infected bots daily. With Idalis, these botnets can be eliminated, and by implementing the Idalis Anti-Botnet Browsesafe plug-in we can help prevent them from occurring again.
