Mailshell SDK Selected as
a Finalist for 2006 SC Award for Best Anti Spam
SANTA CLARA, CA - December 6, 2005 - SC Magazine
named the Mailshell SDK, the most widely deployed OEM engine
to identify new forms of spam, phishing and email fraud,
as a finalist in the 2006 SC Awards' Reader Trust Technology
Awards for the Best Anti-Spam. The Mailshell SDK, featuring
Mailshell's SpamCompiler technology, was named a finalist
based on reader voting from among more than two dozen products
originally nominated. More than 6,000 companies and 10 million
consumers already rely on 'Powered by Mailshell' products
to block spammers and phishers.
"The honor of being the first OEM product
named a finalist for the Best Anti Spam award validates
our selection as OEM provider by some of the world's most
respected security software companies," said Tonny
Yu, CEO of Mailshell. "Many of our OEMs evaluated our
engine for more than a year before integrating it into their
products and deploying it to their customers worldwide.
This award reflects the trust they place in us."
By integrating the Mailshell SDK with SpamCompiler
technology into their products, Mailshell's OEM partners
see consistently accurate levels of anti-spammer and anti-phisher
protection. The engine 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
every five minutes, Mailshell's engine consistently generates
highly accurate results in recognizing spam, phishing and
other forms of email fraud.
Mailshell's software helps its OEM partners,
including Computer Associates, Oracle Corporation, CyberGuard,
Panda Software, Earthlink's Aluria division, ZyXEL, Broderbund,
Rockliffe and Lyris Technologies, among others, generate
new anti-spam revenue, upsell existing products to new anti-spam
customers, and cut anti-spam engineering and support costs
to near zero. Companies can integrate the Mailshell Engine
into their existing product or application using Mailshell's
development toolkit, the Mailshell Anti-Spam SDK. Mailshell's
SpamCompiler developers hold nearly 30 patents in database
modeling and design, and are leading experts in using Artificial
Intelligence technology to compile high-level languages
into optimized code. For more information on Mailshell visit
