Products Overview   SpamRepellent   OEM SDK Solutions   Products Brochure (.pdf)   PhishRepellent: Dedicated Anti-Phishing Technology Eat More Phish™ with PhishRepellent™ PhishRepellent Mail-Filters was the first, and is still the only, company to develop and provide an anti-phishing solution specifically targeting phishing messages. Integrated into Mail-Filters’ STAR Engine, PhishRepellent has become an important part of Mail-Filters’ overall message filtering technology for detecting both spam and phish messages. Unlike other solutions that look at a message only in terms of spam, the STAR Engine (with PhishRepellent) analyzes a message as being a:         1) Spam message         2) Phishing message         3) Legitimate message The result has been the STAR Engine’s ability to detect an industry best 95+% of all spam and phishing messages without causing any false-positives (less than 1 in 1,000,000). In fact, it isn’t uncommon for end-users of Mail-Filters technology to have a far superior experience. Why Anti-Spam Solutions Aren’t Anti-Phishing Solutions As phishing has gained in notoriety, companies offering spam-filtering products have respond on the marketing front by claiming that their anti-spam filters will also stop phishing messages. Truthfully they have added no new technology designed specifically for detecting phishing messages and their claims are nothing more than hype. This is an example of a typical spam message Phishing messages are very different than spam messages. Spam messages have their own unique characteristics that anti-spam filters use to detect them from legitimate messages. Phishing messages rarely have the same characteristics found in spam messages. Adding to the issue is the fact that phishing messages look like a legitimate message from a trusted or known sender. This is an example of a phishing message; it looks like a legitimate email from the bank. A good anti-spam solution should not cause false-positives (marking a legitimate email message as spam). Because phishing messages appear to be legitimate email messages from your bank, your stock broker, your credit card company, or other source; most anti-spam filters can not distinguish the difference between a legitimate message and a phishing message. As a result, using an anti-spam filter alone to detect phishing messages can result in:         1) A low catch-rate of phishing messages         2) A low catch-rate of spam messages         3) A significant increase in false-positives Not having a solution that includes strong technology specifically designed and dedicated to detecting phishing messages, especially as the level of sophistication and techniques of phishers continues to rise, creates a significant security vulnerability. Spam filtering alone is not enough to detect phishing messages and closing up this security hole. In addition to anti-spam technology another defense is needed that is designed specifically for recognizing the characteristics of phishing messages.
