Santa Clara, CA (PRWEB) September 19, 2005 -- Mailshell, the leading OEM provider of anti-spammer and anti-phisher engines, announced today that ZyXEL Communications (TSE:2391), the world's leading broadband access solutions provider and the world's largest DSL router provider, has integrated Mailshell's SpamCompiler technology into its new 8-in-1 ZyWALL unified threat management (UTM). Mailshell's SpamCompiler SDK Lite is the first low-memory anti-spammer and anti-phisher engine and helps ZyWALL UTM offer accurate and reliable spam filtering. More than 6,000 companies and 10 million consumers already rely on 'Powered by Mailshell' products.
By integrating Mailshell's SpamCompiler engine, the 8-in-1 ZyWALL UTM optimizes, compiles and executes more than one million filter checks in a fraction of a second to determine if a message is spam or not. By combining a fast, compact, flexible, complete decision tree with an automatically self-tuning intelligent engine that is updated up to every five minutes, Mailshell's engine consistently generates highly accurate results in recognizing spam, phishing and other forms of email fraud.
"Spam has become one of the most challenging issues faced by today's IT staffs, as these mails bring down network resources and employee productivity," said Kerming Chen, VP of SMB & Consumer Business Unit at ZyXEL. "Mailshell's solutions are accurate, scalable, and easy to integrate into our ZyWALL UTM products, helping businesses to maximize their bandwidth resources and employee productivity."
"Through our scale, experience and focus as an anti-spam technology provider, we can provide our partners a high quality, feature-rich solution at competitive cost and with a short time-to-market," said Tonny Yu, CEO of Mailshell. "Partners can embed anti-spam into their products to generate new incremental subscription-based revenue and to compete with hosted spam filtering services."
"Our SDK combines increased flexibility, speed, and transparency compared to managed spam services," added Yu. "Since customers don't need to make changes to their domain records or other essential details of email flow the SDK is also easier to setup and ensures that sensitive email never leaves the customer's servers or gets routed to a third party."
