Memova™ Anti-Abuse sits at the network gateway and stops abuse before it enters or exits your mail system. Building on Critical Path's SMTP Relay Server — industry-endorsed for its high performance and low total cost of ownership at scale — the solution intelligently combines powerful traffic analysis with leading-edge content analysis to deliver an overall abuse capture ratio of more than 95%.




Dramatically Reduce Message Filtering Costs
Advanced traffic analysis — the first line of defense — detects up to 70% of abuse traffic. Sender validation and reputation techniques guard against phishing and spoofing, dropping inbound traffic from known spammers, while enabling trusted senders to bypass secondary abuse checks. Sophisticated rate controls automatically detect mail bombs, denial-of-service and directory harvest attacks in real-time. Additional features stop outbound abuse and allow you to enforce custom whitelists, blacklists and other polices.
Choose Cost-Effective or Premium Content Analysis
Sophisticated message content analysis forms the second line of defense, taking your anti-abuse protection a step further and consistently stopping more than 95% of abuse. Memova Anti-Abuse allows you to choose the message content analysis tool best-suited to your needs and your budget. Deterministic techniques, such as signatures and spammer asset tracking, as well as predictive techniques, such as heuristic analysis, are used and will evolve along with or ahead of new abuse tactics.
