Through the use of hosted spam filtering and virus scanning, Lighthouse
Technologies offers a solution to two of of the largest potential
threats to businesses in the 21st century: reduced employee
productivity,
and lower corporate profitability.
More than just an unappetizing selection from today’s
menu of corporate threats, spam, sometimes called unsolicited
commercial email, is a multi-billion dollar challenge that is increasingly
difficult for small and medium-sized businesses to swallow.
Most companies recognize that anti-spam services can pay for
themselves with:
- Gains in worker productivity
- Savings on bandwidth
- Relief on your storage resources, and
- Reduced threat of assorted legal and
security risks.

In addition, as viruses and malicious code attacks
are becoming increasingly linked to spam,
the importance of effective filtering to protect your network
becomes critically essential. Even large corporations
are finding it increasingly difficult to protect themselves
from the threat of viruses, which are both more prevalent and
effective now than ever. Most small and mid-sized businesses
simply do not have the resources to devote in time, manpower,
and resources to in-house anti-virus solutions.
That’s where Lighthouse Technologies can help.
Our filtering technology offers:
- Hosting and management of
the filtering process, leaving your IT professionals
free to do what they do best;
- Blocking and
quarantining of at least 90% of spam outside corporate
networks, so it never has a chance to cause damage;
- Reliable
delivery of legitimate business email, with the industry’s
lowest false-positive rate (less than 1 email in 250,000);
- Virus blocking, both inbound and outbound, preventing
not only the spread of viruses internally, but the possible
legal
ramifications
and injury to your company and its reputation caused
by outgoing mail propagating viruses outside your network;
- Virus updates
every 10 minutes through our relationships with major
antivirus vendors;
- Policy enforcement; and
- Disaster recovery service, protecting
your data and your company from a potentially embarrassing
loss.
Lighthouse Technologies’ spam and virus detection and
filtering services allow you to keep your company’s focus
where it should be – on your products, services and most
importantly, your customers.
