-- IronPort’s Threat Operations Center reported today that it in the past 45 days it has blocked 20 virus outbreaks – all of them quarantined before major anti-virus vendors released a signature.

-- A typical virus outbreak averages $300 per desktop in IT clean-up costs alone.

-- IronPort® has begun publicly posting information where anyone can see the latest outbreaks and IronPort Virus Outbreak Filters’ response times (relative to the largest anti-virus vendors). To view the 20 most recent major outbreaks, see http://www.ironport.com/toc/ .
