ROI and Other Cost Benefits of
Reputation-Based Services
Improving bandwidth with fewer expenses:
- Reducing infrastructure expenses to process already-filtered content
- Savings in the form of lesser storage
- Eliminating the need to archive spam messages for compliance purposes
- Protecting against phishing, zombies, spam, malware, viruses, etc., and subsequent cleanup costs
Based on the above bullets the overall savings in dollars because of reputation service for an organization of size 1000 employees was calculated. The annual savings were found to be roughly 1.3 million USD year after year. The paper also shows that because of the low cost of deploying TrustedSource on the network edge, the cost of deployment can be recovered in less than 3 days.
Deployment of TrustedSource is very flexible and can be deployed in any new or existing network within minutes. If the network is the backbone of any organization and email its heart, TrustedSource is the shield that protects these from known and unknown threats without which even the smallest of worms can paralyze the functioning of the whole organization.
