The Ceryx Difference

Ceryx's AntiSpam Service is different from other antispam tools or products because of the fundamental understanding that spam to one individual is not spam to everyone, and that e-mail administrators or end users shouldn't need to spend any time configuring and managing their antispam solution. Other hosted spam services provide a foundation of stock filters, or worse, black lists to every user; and in-house administrators and/or end users must manage additional filters, and more often, devote their valuable time and resources to fine-tune the antispam solution.

Ceryx manages and develops all customizable spam filters that each company, department or end-user requires.

Ceryx AntiSpam consists of three parts:

Identification:
AntiSpam uses an advanced heuristic rule based system of thousands of mail filters (with more and more added each day) for spam identification. The system breaks the message up into its various parts and looks for spam signatures in each of the parts.

Management:
The service is monitored 24x7 by the Network Operations Center (NOC). The NOC manages spam in a couple of different ways. First, they are continuously updating and creating new spam filters to prevent spam reaching the user. Secondly, the NOC reacts to reports of new spam messages that reach users as well as reports of false positives. The NOC monitors all aspects of AntiSpam and will take the immediate corrective action required in order to keep spam out of user's mailboxes. In the Enhanced AntiSpam Service, the Ceryx NOC manages the customer quarantine area and verifies there are no false positives. In the Standard version of AntiSpam, the customer administrator only needs to verify false positives.

Delivery:
With the Enhanced AntiSpam Service, only legitimate e-mail is delivered to customer inboxes. With the Standard version of AntiSpam, legitimate e-mail is delivered to customer inboxes and identified spam messages are forwarded to a customer defined Spam folder.

Spam is more than a nuisance: It's a threat to the bottom line. Stop spam from wasting your valuable employee time, IT resources, bandwidth, and money.
