Virus Bulletin to test and certify anti-spam products

Virus Bulletin has built a reputation for testing and certifying anti-malware products for more than ten years and they’re about to get into checking the performance claims made by anti-spam product vendors.

The tests will also provide useful information about the effectiveness of different spam-filtering methods: as different filters use different methods, the tests will implicitly compare these as well. This information will be valuable for the anti-spam industry as a whole.
Helen Martin, Editor of Virus Bulletin, said: “We feel strongly that there is a need for a robust and comprehensive anti-spam certification scheme and that our background stands us in good stead to run such a scheme. We are looking forward to publishing the first set of results.”
