Spam Master continuously develops and implements innovative security technologies to protect servers, hardware and websites from spam and malicious exploits. You can see these technologies in action in our API, plugin for WordPress, module for Drupal and plugin for Joomla. Also, many other third party companies use these technologies across their software for other platforms, content management systems and servers to provide security services.

High Availability Firewall

Also known as HAF is a new real-time online Firewall concept that in conjunction with RBL “real-time blacklist” servers drastically improves server / hardware resources like CPU, Ram Memory, Disk Space (io read/writes). At the same time HAF improves response times by reducing the necessary bandwidth to perform scanning and detection tasks of bots, spam attempts and exploits like SQL injections and DOS “denial of service”.

Empath

Empath is an automatic whitelisting mechanism for Ip’s and Emails. Empath uses advanced heuristics to decide if an Ip or Email is safe and therefore stop further resources usage with scans. An example of the advanced heuristics is the automatic learning of geographical location and language intended by the server / hardware using empath and correlate, match that data with incoming requests. Empath uses many other heuristics mechanisms like DNS and domain correlations, paths between referrals and destination pages, logged in users, etc.

Honeypot Version 2

Also known as Honeypot V2, Honey V2 is a new concept of “smart dynamic input fields” that adapt and check for things like javascript, sessions and cookies alongside the traditional honeypot traps set to detect, deflect, and counteract attempts at unauthorized use of your website, a honeypot consists of data that appears to be a legitimate part of the site, but is actually isolated and monitored, and that seems to contain information or a resource of value to attackers, who are then blocked, colloquially known as “baiting” a suspect. One of Spam Master most used technology by third parties.

Dynamic Flood Guard

Spam Master’s Flood Control intelligently limits repeated actions from users or bots within a defined flood window, stopping spam bursts and abuse before they impact your site. By enforcing strict flood rate limits, we ensure your website stays fast, secure, and available—even during attempted attacks.

Alert Level

Threat Alert Level, is an easy and interactive way for you to know if your server, hardware, website is being targeted by spammers and the level of intensity or danger of this targeting. The Alert Level is calculated by our RBL “real-time blacklist” servers and range from 0 (low), 1 (medium low), 2 (medium) and 3 (high) intensities.

Spam Probability

Advanced detection heuristic analytics provides an approximated percentage of all spam activity in your server, hardware, website. The percentage can range from 0 to thousands according to the activity, the lower the number, the better.

Spam Learning

Learning function that makes a server, hardware or website a fighting spam enforcer by providing ip’s and emails for analysis and RBL “real-time blacklist” servers inclusion.

Spam Buffer

Specially designed, dedicated cache for security requests between clients and our RBL “real-time blacklist” servers. It exponentially reduces server resources and bandwidth.
