Sorting the Mail
RiskFilter's EUSM (end-user spam management) tool gives users a list of quarantined e-mail and lets them release messages to their inbox. The tool also lets them manage black- and whitelists. RiskFilter's EUSM works with Active Directory and other LDAP-compliant directory stores to authenticate users.
To prevent directory attacks, you can limit the number of messages sent per IP address. I tested this with a trusted copy of Turbo-Mailer 2.2.3. I sent bulk mail to users on the SunFire test server, but once I reached the number I had set as the maximum number of messages per IP address within a configurable time frame, RiskFilter denied further mail from that address.
I wanted to test RiskFilter's ability to isolate virus-bearing messages as identified by McAfee's Anti-Virus Agent, so I sent a series of W32/MyDoom strains and some MultiDropper-KRs using various file names and packaged in zip files. RiskFilter identified and isolated them without a problem. I even added a notification option so that users would know when a message was isolated because of a virus. McAfee's AV Agent is an additional $5.50 per user, per year.
To realize the benefits of cloud-native software, an application must actually be cloud-native—designed to run in the cloud, interacting with disaggregated cloud services, fully manageable as code—to deliver the expected benefits.
By combining resources and expertise, the AI-Enabled ICT Workforce Consortium will offer a blueprint for how industries can adapt to an AI-dominated future.
