SMEs offered free business security audit
Astaro Corporation, a leading network security vendor is offering free business audits to Australian SMEs.
The silent business audit and forensic analysis will demonstrate what and how spyware and malware is able to get through the organisation’s spam filter and will provide insight into Internet usage trends.
As part of the free silent business audit and forensic analysis offering, Astaro will deploy a Security Gateway appliance behind an organisation’s normal web filter for 14 days, which will monitor internet traffic and record spyware and malware infections missed by the normal web filter.
The security audit will help small businesses gain insight into the effectiveness of their current web filtering tools, according to Guy Coles, Astaro’s VP Sales APAC and Japan.
“This free offering will provide valuable insight into network traffic patterns and help organisations evaluate their level of exposure to unwanted spyware, malware, and use of network resources.”
To register for a silent business audit and forensic analysis, please visit the Astaro Security Gateway website.

Protect your business from spam and phishing attacks
Does this service identify who is sending spam mail and advise how to stop it? Much of the spam I receive comes from info@legaltender.com.au which is my email address. (Obviously I am not sending myself spam). The consequence is that I cannot block the sender.
Most of the time, the RPD based anti-spam we offer is smart enough to catch those spoofed emails based on sender ip, message hash or URL if included. Also standard technologies like Greylisting we support will typically help those forged emails to be blocked. We have RBL/RDNS/BATV/SPF as well.
The spammer isn’t really sending from their account, just using their email address as the reply-to address. Hence the mail server IP, hostname, and other factors will identify them as spammers as well. Our spam filtering scans the messages based on their fingerprint and characteristics as to how they spread around the globe, so the content of the message, the language it is in, as well as the sender “name/email” itself, is most of the time irrevelant.
i should add out of nothing more than integrity that I am the VP of Asia / Pacific / Japan and have had my people clarify.
