| MessageLabs Announces Small Business Security Solutions MessageLabs has announced the launch of MessageLabs Small Business Solutions. Designed to specifically meet the needs of small and mid-sized businesses, the solutions address many of the key security challenges facing smaller businesses today: the increasing sophistication and volume of threats, limited IT resources and budget, and lack of depth of security expertise. Providing fully integrated, world class protection from email and web threats at an affordable and predictable cost, MessageLabs Email and Web Security serves as the cornerstone solution for all small business messaging security needs. Incorporating a fully managed, multi-layered scalable solution for anti-virus, anti-spam, anti-phishing, anti-spyware and URL filtering, the solution protects small businesses from all messaging and web threats with simple initial setup and minimal management required and without the need for any software or hardware. The necessity for small business Internet security is confirmed in the latest MessageLabs Intelligence analysis also announced today. Spam continues to be a major threat to all businesses with global spam levels in November reaching 74 percent of all emails, the highest level observed since early 2005.

At the heart of the Small Business Solutions is MessageLabs Skeptic technology, which has proven uniquely successful in stopping threats such as viruses, trojans, spam, and phishing attacks. Skeptic also pioneered Converged Threat Analysis, taking recent threat and reputation information from other communications channels, such as email, and applying that knowledge to web traffic, providing an unparalleled level of knowledge and protection for MessageLabs 15,000 customers, of which over 10,000 are smaller businesses.
