Internet Service Providers (ISPs) – Overview

Email Security and Messaging Infrastructure Solutions for ISPs

Messaging abuse erodes subscriber satisfaction and loyalty. According to the Gartner Group, excessive spam is a key reason that subscribers discontinue their email service with most consumers believing that their ISPs are responsible for providing secure messaging and addressing spam problems.

Spam, phishing and malware messages constitute more than 95 percent of a service provider's email traffic. That, combined with the sophisticated nature of today's email security threats, leaves service provider networks vulnerable to maximum repercussions from spammer exploits.

Service Provider Email Security Challenges

Service providers face significant operational challenges. Escalating spam volumes and unexpected attacks have led to unplanned infrastructure investments, increased customer support costs, unreliable accuracy and disruptive "firedrills" when an outbreak occurs. Cloudmark email security addresses these issues by virtually eliminating all forms of inbound messaging abuse before it impacts the email infrastructure and subscriber in-boxes.
