It then filters out the e-mail that it has decided is spam. This filtering may be carried out at the company mail server. Alternatively, an outside security service can be used to filter the mail before it even reaches the company network. One kind of filter is a simple blacklist of names or IP addresses of known sources of spam. Another type of filter looks for keywords such as ‘Viagra’ that often appear in spam e-mail. In adaptive (or Bayesian) filtering, the filter categorises the words that.

Anti-virus software looks for a distinctive bit pattern (a signature) or a file hash value that will betray the presence of a virus. During the first few hours of a Web attack, standard anti-virus (AV) software is not very effective. Unknown, ‘zero-day’ malware will not be on a list of signatures or have a familiar file hash value. Heuristic filters are one defence that is used against zero-day threats. Making use of artificial intelligence, these look for patterns of behaviour that usually.
