How To Secure Your Email Against Hackers

Spam (no, not that awful tinned meat product!) is any type of unsolicited email that has been sent for the purposes of advertising a product or service, to potential customers that are unaware of the sending company at all. In the real world, the closest that would come to it would be junk mail that appears unasked for in people’s letter boxes. The sending of spam is seen as a total nuisance by most in the world of IT (Information Technology) and can at times be harmful.

 

In a number of cases:

  • Some e-mail that is disguised as spam can actually be virulent in nature and not at all intended to promote any products or services.
  • In such cases, the senders have created a method of making an e-mail resemble spam in the hope that recipients will visit websites, where viruses are downloaded onto their computers.
  • And while this is not really spam, uninvited e-mails do make such content more difficult to detect and is why professional anti-spam experts like Mailcleaner are essential.

Spyware, Malware and Adware Problems and Attempts to regulate it

Undeniably the worst kind of spam is that which downloads spyware or adware ontosomeone’s computer. In cases of this kind, e-mails can direct users to certain websites where this malicious software is then downloaded. Afterwards, the software can then createall kinds of malfunctions or pop up messages that resemble official looking warning signs telling users that they should purchase a particular product to look after their computers.

Because of the many problems that have been created by spam, a lot of countries have attempted to regulate it and hold liable companies who send it out. But, in some cases in countries and especially in the United States, this has run into constitutional challenges, because of freedom of speech issues. In such cases the legal banning of spam becomes a problemand many laws have been invalidated.

Not Originating inside of one’s Country

An obstacle that many run into when regulating spam is

  • That in many cases it doesn’t even originate from within the borders of a regulating country.
  • So, the locating of any violators, (AKA“spammers”), becomes practically near impossible and going on to prosecute them becomes even more difficult.
  • Most are not even traceable and those that are may be in other countries where there are very seldom any, or no, anti-spamming laws.
  • And that’s exactly why any laws which remain are only somewhat effective at best.

To deal with the inefficiency of anti-spam laws, a good option may be to use an email provider which filters any potential spam mail. Normally, this is sent to a particular folder labelled “spam” or “junk Mail”. However, this will not completely protect usersdue to most email anti-spam software unintentionally removing valid e-mails. In addition, when you are feeling harassed by nuisance calls and want to stop spam calls, you should lodge an official complaint with the authorities.

Lastly, the very best solution is to opt for some professional software which has been specifically created to deal with all manner of spam.
