The Scourge of Spam and How to Tackle it

The scourge of spam and how to tackle it

We’ve all been there. It’s the start of the day and you’re sifting through loads of Spam emails. All you want to do is get straight to the genuine emails.

 

Wouldn’t it be great if you could spend less time sifting through and deleting all that Spam? 

The spammers are continually coming up with ingenious ways to get past the filters so these solutions are never going to be 100% effective. But they do work and can mean you spend less time filtering your emails.

There are also downsides to using spam filters. Just like we humans they can make mistakes! What this means is spam filters can sometimes trap genuine emails. This is known as a “false positive”.  That’s not great if it’s an important email from a client. 

Clearly there needs to be a balance here between risk and reward. This is normally in the form of a sensitivity setting within the spam filter. It is important to get this correct but initially it is worth trialling different settings and checking the results.

Some spam filters work in a slightly different way by blocking any emails they are not sure about but then giving the recipient the option to release that email. That puts you in control of your own sensitivity settings and means that you literally “train” your Spam filter.  This might mean a bit of extra effort on your part at the outset but it may well save you time longer term and enable you to get the best out of your Spam filter.

One option is to use a Spam filter that is hosted on the internet with no software to install on your computer. This has several advantages:
1. The Spam emails never reach your computer. That leaves your internet connection free for valid emails and internet use.
2. Viruses never reach your computer or server.
3. It also makes your network or server more secure as you can set them to only allow connections from your hosted Spam filter rather than anybody who might be sending you emails.

My recommendation would be for a hosted spam filtering solution for the benefits listed above. There are also additional benefits including business continuity.  When your server/network is down you can still access emails through a web interface and then when your network/server is working again the emails are delivered as normal.  There’s also the option of email archiving for compliance reasons along with access from any location though a web site, for example if you are away from the office.

Data, Data, Everywhere

Remember the days of 40MG hard drives? Or how excited you were when you had a Gig of disk space on your laptop? Yet now we can travel with 1/2 TB of space on a flash drive smaller than a paperback. Technical advances and dropping prices allow us to give users what they want—more space to store their stuff. But as George Carlin pointed out in his famous stand-up routine about Stuff, some challenges can result. Read on to find out what we are seeing as we visit customers, plus some great solutions to help.

The Challenge:

We are living in the information age and data is king. Users want rapid access to their data and don’t want to have to worry about losing an important document or email that they might need ‘some day.’ In a society where discovery for court cases has extended to electronic documents, penalties can be high for not being able to produce the right document. As we visit customers, we see both file system and email stores growing out of control. It seemed to happen overnight and everyone is talking about it. So why not just keep adding disk space? After all, as we stated above, disk space is cheap and easy to come by. However, some serious challenges arise from simply adding disk space to disk space:

1. Backup Windows Are Extended: Depending on your particular rotation strategy, some backups may be finishing just as your users are logging back into the network.

2. Maintenance Takes Longer: If you do have a hardware or software issue, rebuilds of large data volumes (such as NSS pool rebuilds) can take a great deal of time and put your systems out of production, thus impacting user and business functions.

3. Data Migrations Take Longer: While we can do seed and delta copies when migrating to new hardware, all of these take longer and longer as our stores grow.

Some Solutions:

There are many ways to solve this situation – all revolving around reducing the size of your production data stores and putting less-recently-used files and data off to cheaper devices that need to be backed up less frequently. Here are three options to consider:

1. Email Archiver: While email archivers were originally used to capture all emails in the event of a court case, they are also a great way to reduce the size of your post offices. The advantage is that users have the comfort of knowing that the data is still available if they need it, and thus are less likely to complain about archiving and retention policies. Solutions like Messaging Architects M+ Archive support stubbing, so users ‘see’ the email as if it were in their mailbox.

2. Dynamic Storage Technology: Included with OES, DST allows users to create a shadow volume and move less-frequently-used files off to cheaper storage based on the policies you set. Users see the files as if they were still on the same volume. When they access them, the files are automatically moved back to the production disk. The cheaper storage can be backed up less frequently and at a time that is convenient for you. Plus, you reduce the size of your production data volume.

3. Novell Storage Manager: Novell Storage Manager allows you to create storage limitations for various groups and automatically move files to the storage device of your choosing – all based on the policies you define. The program snaps into eDirectory. It is great for schools who are moving student files to new directories based on class enrollment. It also permits or prevents the storage of certain files based on groups; for example, you can pre-determine to only let your music class students and faculty store MP3s.

Like any other implementation, planning for the needs of your organization is key. But by selecting a few of these strategies, you can find a place for everyone’s ‘stuff’ and still keep your network running at top speed!

Data And Information ? Your Legal Obligations

Another chapter in the email archiving story was written with the arrival of two new laws onto the UK statute book. 

The Freedom of Information Act 2000 (“FOIA”) came into force on 1st January 2005 and gave the public new rights of access to recorded information held by public authorities – and email is considered part of that ‘recorded information’. Anyone can ask for a copy of an email and the deadline for response is just 20 working days from the date of receipt of the request. It’s a deadline that many public authorities are struggling to meet because their existing email applications – more and more are realizing that the only way forward is to move to an email archive facility with advanced research, retrieval and management functionality. Public Authorities are also expected to comply with a statutory code on records management that was issued under the FOIA – the s46 Code. The Code requires all public bodies to treat the records management function “as a specific corporate programme”. The Code emphasises that electronic records, including emails, should be managed with the same care accorded to manual records, and that the records management programme, “should bring together responsibilities for records in all formats, including electronic records, throughout their life cycle, from planning and creation through to ultimate disposal.”

The Data Protection Act 1998 (“DPA”) applies to the private and public sector alike and like the FOIA has asked many questions of those with a less than robust approach to ESI.

The DPA gives individuals the right, on producing evidence of their identity, to have a copy of personal data held about them. The deadline for compliance in this instance is 40 days and the retrieved information has to be further assessed to remove any third party data that shouldn’t be disclosed. Organisations recovering personal data from email records are only entitled to charge £10 so there is both a compliance and cost angle to ensuring that requested emails can be retrieved as quickly and effortlessly as possible.

The DPA also requires organisations to take appropriate technical and organisational measures to prevent unauthorized or unlawful processing of personal data, and against accidental loss or destruction of personal data. As regards email, this means that access to any email system and related storage device should be controlled and its contents kept safe – an encrypted, secure archive is the obvious solution, providing the necessary controls while also acting as an essential backup for the preservation of data should the main system fail.

Ultimately, effective email management comes down to mitigating risk. What links all of the above is that organizations are only vulnerable if they have not put in place proper procedures, frameworks and technologies. If they know what they have and where it is, and can assess, search or retrieve it easily, accurately and responsively, then compliance holds no fear. It also puts them on the front foot when it comes to those rather more everyday issues of employee discipline or dismissal or contract breaches. Without the ability to produce reliable information from emails, and build a full audit trail, an employer or plaintiff may find his position seriously undermined or weakened at any resultant Tribunal or court action.

CIOs can already make a strong case for email archiving on technical and operational grounds alone. But if there is any doubt whether a business should adopt such a discipline, then the head of legal should also make his voice heard. A centralized, consolidated, fully managed email archive is not just a ticket to efficiency and cost control – it’s a passport to best practice, lawful compliance and corporate confidence.
