Corporate Overview ─ VisionCorporate Overview ─ Vision
• A managed service approach to email security will become even more widely adopted
– Security software vendors now consider a managed service offering a key component of their marketing strategy
– Large enterprise will deploy a layered approach
• Transport carriers must inoculate their networks
• Email threat detection will move from submission technology to sensor networks
• Software deployment into large service providers creates the best potential for market dominance
• Bridging the gap between identity management and email for outbound message submission will provide new opportunities for service provider penetration

• Spam is being distributed through the service provider outbound email gateway
• Email authentication standards are spawning reputation services (Habeas, Kelkea, Equifax, etc.)
• Service providers will need to focus on policing their subscriber base to ensure healthy reputation and successful deliverability of subscribe email
• There is little outbound specific anti-spam protection at the sender level ─ majority of focus currently resides with inbound filtering technologies
