Global Crossing Cuts Off Spammers.
2005-03-10, HostMan.biz Telecommunications carrier Global Crossing (globalcrossing.com) said last week that it has worked hard to remove known spam operations from its global network in an effort to provide security and operational continuity to its customers. "Network security is a quantifiable issue for businesses around the world," says Dan Wagner, chief information officer for Global Crossing. "We're committed to deploying and implementing the tools and policies that protect our customers' networks from being hijacked for criminal activities." Global Crossing's acceptable use policy explicitly forbids spamming activity and includes provisions for immediately removing offending customers. In its efforts to remove spammers, the company says it also screens prospective customers, collaborates with existing customers and monitors and investigates anomalous traffic patterns. Anti-spam organization Spamhaus (spamhaus.org) applauded Global Crossing's efforts. "In our work we focus so much on spam villains that we seldom get the chance to highlight the industry heroes. Among networks deserving high regard in the fight against spam, Global Crossing stands out as a leader," says Steve Linford, chief executive officer of Spamhaus. "If all major networks tackled their spam issues with the determination and spirit of Global Crossing, spammers would have no havens from which to operate, spam would be beaten back to a minor manageable nuisance, and the Internet would be a better and safer place for all." |
