Business Wire
Bizanga and Commtouch(R) (NASDAQ:CTCH) today announced the
integration of Commtouch's real-time virus and spam protection
technology into Bizanga's Intelligent Message Processor(TM) (IMP).
This move is expected to provide enhanced email defense options to
Bizanga's service provider and operator customers. The Commtouch
anti-spam and Zero-Hour(TM) virus prevention technology joins other
best-of-breed filtering technologies available on the IMP to
provide rapid response capabilities to operators and service
providers. Commtouch's Recurrent Pattern Detection(TM) technology
-- in conjunction with the IMP's workflow processor -- uniquely
enables operators and service providers to prioritize email traffic
according to its importance. The integrated platform processes in
excess of 4.2 million email messages per hour on a single system
with this and other industry-leading third party applications. In
installations at operators across the world, the IMP already
processes well in excess of 200 million email messages per day.
"Bizanga was looking for reliable filtering technologies that would
also allow for scalable classification of the traffic flow," said
Marc Sheldon, Chief Marketing Officer for Bizanga. "Commtouch's
RPD(TM) technology provides this capability to our customers,
enabling new ways of managing email streams in accordance with
their relative importance to the end user. Commtouch's proven email
security technology will provide protection for our customers
against current and future spam and malware threats." The Commtouch
anti-spam and Zero-Hour virus prevention module is available for
Bizanga's current and future customers as a fully integrated
optional module for the Bizanga IMP as of version 2.5, scheduled
for release in July 2006. "We are pleased to be working with
Bizanga to expand our reach to service providers globally," said
Jay Goldin, Commtouch Inc.'s Vice President of Business
Development. "Commtouch's pro-active, low footprint technology
provides a distinct edge, enabling telcos and ISPs to block spam
and protect their customers from malware at the exact moment of an
attack." About Bizanga: Bizanga Ltd. is a global company which has
