Killing the Corporate Hydra: Spam E-Mail

provides integrated protection at strategic points on the
network including the gateway, desktop, and servers.
Since recovery is often costly and difficult, Proactive
Threat Protection is critical to have in place prior to an
e-mail borne security attack. When threats do strike,
Proactive Threat Protection helps IT security managers
quickly close the Window of Vulnerability—the period of
time when threats can do damage. Proactive Threat
Protection is available in a wide range of McAfee
Security products that, together and separately, help
secure corporate data.

McAfee’s vision for multi-tiered spam defense includes
SpamKiller products for the gateway, the e-mail server
(including Microsoft Exchange and Lotus Domino) and
the desktop. While most anti-spam products reside as a
stand-alone client or reside as a gateway with no
knowledge of the client, McAfee SpamKiller offers both
gateway and e-mail server filtering and administration,
and end-user personalization. Tuned for performance,
SpamKiller provides protection for desktops, e-mail
servers, and Internet gateway, offering a 95 percent
spam detection rate “out of the box.”

Strong, Fast Return on Investment
Spam eats into productivity and profitability in myriad
ways—from the time spent reading spam e-mail to the
bandwidth required to carry them, from storage costs to
IT management requirements. In general, the more
spam that can be eradicated before entering the
company, the greater the cost-savings and productivity
benefits.

McAfee Security has developed a comprehensive return
on investment (ROI) tool that allows companies to
pinpoint exactly the sobering costs that spam incurs.
Comprising a dozen variables, McAfee’s SpamKiller ROI
Tool vividly illustrates the debilitating effect of spam on
enterprises large and small, and provides solid proof
points to support the value of implementing anti-spam
solutions. The SpamKiller ROI Tool can be accessed at
