Stopping virus attacks successfully

ERFURT, Februar 1, 2004 - It's well known that MS Outlook is a multiplier for viruses, enabling major attacks, and that virus protection software is not really going to stop them.There are alternatives, before the next attack comes up:
Integrated in its Business Suite SITEFORUM offers a secure Webmail solution. Included are group scheduler, tasks and contacts. So beside Outlook even MS Exchange Server can be replaced. As an extra, storing e-mails in SITEFORUM DMS needs literally just a mouseclick.

Why is Webmail technology a solution in case of virus attacks? Problem is less the virus itself. If it infects a computer, the damage is limited. Problem starts if it finds an Outlook client and can use this adressbook to multiply itself by: If each infected user has 100 entries only and if 10% of them get infected, then from this first infected system in few waves 1 million computers are reached.
www.SCO.com shows what happens. And every organization could be a target.

To educate users will never reach 100%.
Virus protection software can become effective after the virus was spread out already and has to be installed the right way.
So the only real solution today is the change to Webmail technology,which are totally blocking the propoagation mechanism .
