Symantec Brightmail AntiSpam Overview
Welcome to Symantec Brightmail AntiSpam™, Symantec’s industry-leading message
filtering system. Symantec Brightmail AntiSpam offers complete, Internet-wide, server-
side antispam and antivirus protection. It actively seeks out, identifies, analyzes, and
ultimately defuses spam and virus attacks before they inconvenience your users and
overwhelm or damage your networks. Symantec software allows you to remove unwanted
mail before it reaches your users’ inboxes, without violating their privacy.
Symantec Brightmail AntiSpam software filters email in four ways:
•
AntiSpam Filters use our state-of-the-art technologies and strategies to filter and
classify email as it enters your site.
•
AntiVirus Filters combine Symantec processing technology with Symantec AntiVirus
definitions and engines to clean viruses from your email.
•
Content Filters supplement AntiSpam Filters; you can tailor them specifically to the
needs of your organization.
•
The Allowed Senders List and the Blocked Senders List filter messages based on the
sender. You can create your own lists and subscribe to third-party lists. Symantec
Brightmail AntiSpam includes the Brightmail Reputation Service, which consists of
our Open Proxy List, Safe List and Suspect List. These features filter messages based
on extensive research to ascertain the reputation of the originating IP address, as a
source of spam or of legitimate email.
