MindComet Is Proud To Introduce The First Total Control Spam Solution
MindComet, The Relationship Agency, has partnered with Woburn , Massachusetts based technology enterprise, Reflexion Network Solutions, in bringing this revolutionary email security system to the public.The MindComet Total Control solution is the first solution of it’s kind and the only one currently on the market that provides elasticity in it’s functions, complete viral protection, and intuitive message blocking without the chance of blocking messages that are valid and important to the user.
MindComet Total Control employs a transparent technology called Secure Channel Communication™, which automatically issues a unique identifier for each contact of a particular user.This process creates a protected conduit for communication along with precise tracking that protects email contact information from being spread and used by others without the owner’s knowledge.This system allows the user to monitor if a third party, such as a website vendor, sells or gives their email address away and, even more importantly, allows the user to block communication from the new sender, all new senders from that third party, or even the third party itself.All of this is possible without ever having to contact any of the senders involved.Today, many email senders provide an “unsubscribe” feature that is really just a way to confirm they have a “live” email address that is actively being read.By unsubscribing, you are actually getting put on hundreds of new email lists.MindComet Total Control puts the control back where it belongs – in the hands of the receiver, so users will never be at the mercy of email spammers again.
“The Concept is revolutionary,” stated Joseph McIssac, CEO of Reflexion. “There is no doubt that spam is a huge problem in the world of email communication today, and filters are simply not effective enough. Our technology has led to superior new defenses for other problems plaguing email, including blocking new and invisible email borne viruses, denial of service attacks and directory name harvesting.”
The Total Control system uses no language or content filters, no manual input functions for allowing or disallowing contacts otherwise known as “whitelists” or “blacklists,” and does not create “false positives” where a message is blocked that shouldn’t be.Additionally, the system is simple to set up and easy to use, requiring no ongoing administration.It even allows users to view the content of potentially hazardous messages – within a safe environment, free from the possibility of a devastating viral infection. Unlike other so called spam solutions, MindComet Total Control will not degrade over time, which is common among systems that utilize cumbersome scanning sources to detect “good” and “bad” email.This product eliminates bandwidth, CPU and disk space usage required by other solutions and frees these resources for your network activity.
Several companies were chosen to act as test consumers, aiding in the development process of Total Control.The Parthenon Group, a managing consulting firm with offices in Boston , San Francisco and London was one of the early adopters.They eliminated 200,000 spam messages from entering into their network with no false positives in just one week – while simultaneously enabling re-allocation of their IT staff to revenue generating projects.Similar results were shared among several affiliates over the course of 18 months, a time period during which the system was perfected and the businesses involved reaped the many benefits of Total Control.
“We have been using Total Control for more than a year with phenomenal success,” said Leo Hermacinski, a partner at Parthenon. “When we first started, I was personally averaging over 100 spam messages a day.Now with Total Control, I get zero spam and we’ve had no incident of a false positive.It does such a great job that we forget we are using it.If it weren’t for the Total Control reporting package, we would never know that our spam problem has grown from 700 spam messages to now over 2,000 per week.All this time Total Control has delivered perfect results with absolutely no maintenance.”
The MindComet team will be available to answer consumer inquiries about what MindComet Total Control can do for them and their company.The system offers many elements of interest to the IT world including virus checking, enhanced reliability and uptime, content control, and forensic analysis.It is compatible with all email servers and security products including spam filters, virus scanners, SMTP gateways, Microsoft Exchange, Lotus, Eudora, Novell Group Wise, and CommuniGate.
