About Red Condor
We’re Red Condor Inc., a managed service provider of highly resilient email security systems for businesses, education, government agencies and service providers. Our cutting edge technology eliminates spam, viruses, spyware, phishing schemes and other dangerous and offensive content. Red Condor’s sophisticated technology also protects email servers and systems from external threats such as denial of service and directory harvest attacks.
Red Condor provides advanced email protection both as a hosted service that requires no hardware or software installation, and as a plug-and-play network appliance that delivers cost effective, localized protection of email systems and users. Red Condor’s network appliances are standalone devices that work without the need for software to be installed or updated on other servers or client computers.
Tackling the High Cost of Spam
It’s estimated that spam will cause an estimated $100 billion in damages to businesses, government organizations, schools and other nonprofit organizations during 2007, an increase of more than 100% during the past two years. It’s easy to understand the economic impact that unwanted email has on our lives. For every email subscriber and every network owner, email has become a “primary food group.” We can’t work without it, and we don’t want unwanted email in our way.
At Red Condor, we fight the growing threat of spam with a proven, deployed technology that is stress-tested, refined, and available to customers world-wide.
Email You Need, Without the Spam You Hate
Red Condor’s next generation, behavior-based filtering technology sets a new standard for effectiveness in eliminating unwanted, fraudulent, and predatory email while ensuring that real email get delivered without being incorrectly labeled as spam. Red Condor’s technology provides long-term spam block rates greater than 98% and with a false-positive rate less than 0.01%.
And because the nature of spam and other email threats is constantly changing, Red Condor’s technology tracks evolving spam campaigns in real-time; antivirus and other threat definitions are updated every few minutes. Updates are then distributed to both hosted services and network appliance devices, automatically providing customers with continuously updated email protection.
