Follow on Google News | Red Condor Bests Competitors in Independent Test of Email Filter AccuracyMiercom test proves Red Condor’s superior threat protection and validates hybrid approach
By: Red Condor Test criteria in the independent third-party evaluation included spam block rates, false-positive and false-negative counts and misclassification rates – number of false negatives (missed spam) combined with the number of false positives (legitimate messages incorrectly quarantined) According to Rob Smithers, CEO of Miercom, “Red Condor had the lowest misclassification rate of all appliance and SaaS solutions tested, and its hybrid solution affords a comprehensive approach to filtering, blocking and classifying emails. Based on the filtering and blocking capabilities of the Message Assurance Gateway 2700, Red Condor has shown it provides one of the best email security solutions on the market.” “Email’s integral role in business communications and productivity requires a filtering solution that allows legitimate mail to flow to user inboxes while accurately blocking spam, phishing, virus, and other malicious email content,” said Tom Steding, CEO of Red Condor. “Incorrect classification of mail can cause a variety of problems for companies, from customer service challenges and loss of productivity, to threats to corporate security. Red Condor doesn’t force customers to sacrifice receipt of all legitimate mail in return for protection against spam and potentially dangerous mail. Our technology offers the best of both worlds: highly accurate filtering and strong protection against new and emerging threats.” Other highlights from the Miercom test include: • The Red Condor MAG2700 appliance had a block rate of 99.9%. • Red Condor’s Vx Technology provided automatic failover, keeping mail flowing over the network even when the appliance was turned off. • When combined with the company’s Vx Technology, the MAG2700 appliance is the only email security solution that acts as a hosted service, a network appliance, or as a hybrid.
