"Prior to Total Email Defense I was inundated with spam including all manner of viruses, illicit material, useless offers, etc. On a daily basis my staff and I would deal with literally 1000's of emails across our entire company, days of wasted time on a monthly basis if you add up all time spent across all personnel. The worst part, however, was missing that important email when if delayed, we lost clients. This was becoming a constant threat to our company's viability.

"After discussing various solutions with various providers, and trying a few that were marginally successful I came across the Total Email Defense solution. T.E.D. was a complete reversal of our downward trend into a spam abyss. I sincerely appreciate and thank Total Email Defense staff for a quick and complete solution to an incredibly difficult and seemingly endless problem."

Spam is a persistent problem that affects Internet and email users all around the world. It clogs not just the Internet, but also company mail servers and your email box, whether on your desktop or mobile device.

Total Email Defense (TED) is the simple yet powerful solution to your company's spam, email-born viruses and malware problems.

After almost two years of development, in February 2007 Internet Defense Technologies (IDT) launched Total Email Defense, possibly the most elegant solution to spam, email delivered viruses, and malware on the market.

The power is in the technology and the simplicity.

Total Email Defense blocks spam, false emails, viruses and malware (mail server attacks) BEFORE they get to your company's mail server.

The Result:

  • Your mail server load and bandwidth needs reduce by up to 90%.
  • Your network speed increases.
  • Your frustration goes away.

Total Email Defense actually incorporates over a dozen different major analysis layers and artificial intelligence techniques to stop spam and junk email from hitting your system.

"85 percent or more of all e-mail traffic today is spam."

Unfortunately spam software demands regular attention to set up new rules, manually add new allowed senders (whitelist), and blocking spam email senders (blacklist) to keep it effective.

"Spammers succeed only when they get messages to user inboxes, so they are motivated to counter any barrier between them and their intended recipient. As a result, your IT department will never be done implementing solutions.

"This is a major nuisance to managers, because they have to pay a staff of high-skill people (either directly or indirectly) for ongoing open-ended work.

"Does all this seem insurmountable, given your company's resources? If you aren't willing or able to manage the e-mail and spam measures yourself, outsource it."

With Total Email Defense we do the work for you. Our multi-layered artificial intelligence technology is constantly being upgraded and adjusted to the changing spam and virus landscape. As the spammers change tactics, so do we. Our job, 24 hours a day, seven days a week is to ensure your mailbox contains only those messages you actually want to get through.

Highlights include:

Ease of use

  • No software or hardware to install
  • Web-based management interface to reduce time
  • No large initial expense

Accuracy

  • 10 discrete spam detection systems, all integrated into one system that uses all those to then generate an overall spam score for each message.
  • Totally separate malware protection, phishing protection and virus protection systems.
  • The system's built-in AI learns to identify your company's legitimate email traffic from spam.
  • Innovative quarantine handling where messages almost definitely spam are silently blocked (but accessible to the admin), and those in the gray area can be handled by end-user via auto-notification emails from where they can release, and release + whitelist, or blacklist messages. This means end-users can directly release/whiteliste/blacklist from their desktop without ever needing access to the network admin's system login.

"According to Limoncelli,* 'The spam system has to be upgraded constantly. This can fill an entire full-time position. If you don't have that kind of staffing, the best solution is to let someone else handle it.'"
