Canit 8.0 anti-spam software released

January 29th, 2011
Share

Roaring Penguin Software Inc., the email filtering experts, makers of the acclaimed CanIt-PRO, CanIt-Domain-PRO and Hosted CanIt anti-spam solutions, announced the release of CanIt 8.0. CanIt 8.0 introduces several major new features that greatly improve its suitability for enterprises:

Log Indexing and Searching

CanIt 8.0 indexes all mail logs into a full-text search engine. This allows system administrators and domain administrators to quickly search logs for relevant messages. The logs are grouped into correlated sets on a per-message basis; this allows CanIt to pull together log lines that are far apart in time but relate to the same message. CanIt’s log indexer can search gigabytes of log data in just seconds from a convenient Web interface. This makes tracking down the progress of messages simple and pleasant compared to searching log files with traditional file-searching tools.

CanIt’s email log analyzer is fully aware of realms of control; administrators can only see those log lines that pertain to their users’ messages. Log lines pertaining to messages for users in other organizations are not accessible to domain administrators—only the CanIt site administrator can access cross-organizational log messages.

Complete Rule and Setting Auditing

CanIt 8.0 introduces a complete audit trail for all changes to rules and settings. This lets administrators determine when rules are created, changed or deleted, and by whom. It also lets helpdesk staff troubleshoot delivery problems by determining exactly what rules and settings were in effect at a given time.

Brand-New Web Interface

CanIt’s Web interface code has been overhauled to make theming much simpler. Now, theming your CanIt site requires only minimal knowledge of PHP. Most theming work can be done by HTML designers who do not have to be programmers. As a side benefit, the new Web interface code is faster than the old code, making CanIt’s GUI even snappier.

In addition to these major features, CanIt 8.0 features dozens of small improvements and bug fixes such as geolocation data for IPv6 addresses, several new API calls, improvements to the Verification Server (SMTP Callout) feature and better SNMP monitoring code.

CanIt 8.0 is available as:

Hack-free software on the way: Scientists

January 29th, 2011
Share

The phrase ‘bad guys are always two steps ahead good guys’ seems to be refuted in the world of web and Internet and even for most expert hackers. Hacking is going to be an elusive task as new software has been developed and developer scientist claims that it is the worlds’ first hack-free software.

As per report of the sources, a team of scientists, led by Australia’s ICT Research Centre of Excellence’s spinout company — Open Kernel Labs (OK Labs), have developed a small operating system ‘seL4’ microkernel, which regulates access to a computer’s hardware. The report further added that the developed software ‘kernel’ could protect system from failure or malicious attack.

Reportedly, scientists said that the software had been mathematically proven to operate correctly. It has been also informed that the ‘kernel’ could separate trusted and un-trusted software and could protect from malicious attacks.

As per report of the sources, the scientists have informed that in future application, seL4 could ensure that trusted financial software from banks or stock exchanges could operate security on the customers’ mobile phone alongside un-trusted software.

In a press conference, Mr Gerwin Klein, the leading scientist in the project, said that the seL4 microkernel was the only operating system kernel in existence whose source code had been mathematically proven to implement its specifications correctly. Mr Klein further added that under the assumptions of proof, the seL4 kernel for ARM11 would always do exactly according to its specifications.
