Recurrent Pattern Detection Technology (RPD™)

Commtouch's Recurrent Pattern Detection (RPD™) is based on the most fundamental characteristic of spam and email-born Malware - its mass distribution over the Internet. Recognized by key industry analysts as a leading technology in email outbreak detection, RPD achieves the industry's best detection/accuracy performance (Osterman Research) and "detects and blocks spam in the first few minutes of an outbreak, unlike other anti-spam approaches"(IDC). RPD has been licensed or embedded by leading messaging and security vendors, and protects over 35 million users worldwide.

The Commtouch Real-Time Detection Center

Commtouch's Real-Time Detection Center analyzes large volumes of Internet traffic in real time, and identifies new spam, virus and Phishing outbreaks based on their characteristic mass distribution patterns. Emerging outbreaks are identified moments after they are introduced into the Internet.

Commtouch Engines (SDK)

Deployed by customers worldwide, Commtouch engines (The SDK our partners embed) query the Commtouch Center to receive message classification in real-time. The result is instant protection from new outbreaks - far ahead of signatures or software updates.
