MailShell's SpamCompiler Brings New Muscle to Lyris
RSA Conference, San
Francisco, CA — February 10, 2005
—
Lyris Technologies today announced improved detection
of phishing, fraud, and other spam-borne threats by
its MailShield product via an upgrade to the embedded
spam detection engine by Mailshell—the OEM anti-spam
leader and creator of SpamCompiler technology.
Lyris' MailShield Server provides highly advanced,
cost-efficient mail filtering and tracking, and now
includes Mailshell SpamCompiler version 3.2, which optimizes,
compiles and executes more than one million filter checks
in a fraction of a second. SpamCompiler technology combines
a fast, compact, flexible decision tree with an intelligent,
self-tuning engine.
“Our MailShield customers include major, multi-national
corporations with high-volume messaging, so we needed
a solution that could easily scale to their needs,”
said Luis Rivera, General Manager of Lyris Technologies.
“Mailshell’s SpamCompiler was the clear
OEM frontrunner because it’s extremely sophisticated,
yet also lightening-fast.”
Lyris MailShield Server launched in 1998 and offers
administrators a wide choice of filters and rules to
protect enterprise installations. MailShield Server
4.0 is available with either a Standard feature set
in Windows or Solaris, or a Pro feature set for Windows.
Each version incorporates Mailshell’s SpamCompiler
technology. The Pro version offers an extra degree of
transparency by recording all SMTP transactions and
providing a complete, searchable audit trail of every
incoming and outgoing message.
Mailshell's SpamCompiler SDK, the embedded engine
in Lyris MailShield Server, is the world’s leading
anti-spam engine licensed by over 20 US and International
OEMs and used by more than 5,000 enterprises and 10
million consumers on over a dozen platforms. The SDK
starts at 200k of code, can handle more than two million
messages a day, and can be embedded anywhere in the
email flow. Mailshell’s OEM partners generate
new anti-spam revenue, upsell existing products to new
anti-spam customers, and cut anti-spam engineering and
support costs to near zero.
