The spam-filter of the gateProtect UTM firewall scans email traffic and catches spam before the productivity of the co-workers is reduced.

The configuration makes it possible to define a flexible adjustment of the spam filter with the possibility of black and white lists.    

The False positive rate is extremely small with less than 1 in 1.5 million detected spam mails.

The high throughput rate of the gateProtect spam filter is a deciding factor for the choice of the suitable spam filter. This makes an almost delay-free delivering of e-mails possible. The real filtering proceeds externally that allows a very fast scan and avoids the efficiency of the resources.
