Business Wire
Gordano and Commtouch (Nasdaq:CTCH) are pleased to announce their
technology alliance, allowing Gordano Messaging Suite (GMS) users
to benefit from Commtouch's anti-spam and Zero-Hour(TM) virus
protection security. Commtouch's Recurrent Pattern Detection(TM)
proprietary technology combined with GMS allows stronger protection
for GMS' enterprise users, better securing their networks, servers,
and client computers. The award-winning Gordano solutions protect
over 50 million mailboxes in over 100 countries. "We chose
Commtouch to enhance the GMS security features based not only on
Commtouch's unique approach to security technology, but also
because the technology requires hardly any resources," said John
Stanners, Managing Director of Gordano. "The RPD(TM) technology's
low footprint allows us to benefit from the high detection rates
while keeping our system efficient." Commtouch's RPD technology
deploys a unique approach to blocking spam and the viruses often
contained within spam messages. Rather than filtering spam based on
the content of email, Commtouch's software proactively probes the
Internet and analyzes the distribution patterns of billions of
messages each month, instantly identifying emerging attacks. This
blocks new outbreaks in real-time, whether they are viruses, spam,
phishing, fraud or any other type of malware. Commtouch's approach
results in a solution that is language and format agnostic,
protecting users from all types of spam, even double-byte and
triple-byte languages (e.g. Japanese and Thai), as well as
image-based spam. "Our partnership with Commtouch broadens GMS's
benefits to global customers, as Commtouch's language-independent
scanning ensures our customers in all geographies receive the best
in anti-spam protection on the market," Stanners continues. The
pairing of Commtouch and GMS's technology provides highly accurate
spam detection, extremely low false positives and full user
control. "Partnering with GMS allows enterprise users to reap the
benefits of our RPD technology," said Ronni Zehavi, VP of Business
Development at Commtouch. "In addition, GMS's small-to-medium sized
business customers also now enjoy more sophisticated protection
without having to build extensive security infrastructures." About

Gordano has been developing innovative messaging software since
1994. The original software has been enhanced, extended and
improved steadily ever since. From the original email server
running under Windows NT only, the software now additionally
provides a rich -client WebMail interface (including shared

comprehensive Anti-Spam all running on a range of platforms.
Security is paramount in the development processes used by GMS and
SSL is supported throughout the product. Most recently GMS has
gained full groupware capabilities via the Collaboration Service

platforms providing a real alternative to Microsoft Exchange, while
providing complete functional inter-operability between MS Outlook
and Gordano's own WebMail client. The Collaboration server was
