Spam rise puts internet 'under siege'
The world is facing a deluge of spam, with a new report showing that levels of unwanted email advertising almost trebled in the last five months.
In fact, as many as 91 per cent of emails sent around the world are now comprised of spam, internet security firm Postini said.
The company said that it had detected more than seven billion unwanted advertising emails across the world in November of this year, up from 2.5 billion spam emails in June.
Although many individuals and companies have software designed to block spam, spammers are becoming increasingly sophisticated and making this more and more difficult, the company said.
Spammers are now using large networks of hijacked computers, or "bot-nets" to initiate attacks, Postini claimed, with more than one million infected computers that are co-ordinating spam tracked by the firm every day.
"This dramatic rise in spam attacks on corporate networks has the internet under a state of siege," said Daniel Druker, executive vice president of marketing at Postini.
"Spammers are increasingly aggressive and sophisticated in their techniques, and protection from spam has become a front-burner issue again. Spam has evolved from a tool for nuisance hackers and annoying marketers to one for criminal enterprises."
