What is
Email Content Filtering?

Email Content Filtering is among the most commonly used methods to filter sensitive, inappropriate, and proprietary information. Email Content Filters act either on the content, the information contained in the email body, or on the email headers (like "Subject:") and attachments, to either classify, accept or reject a message. Usually anti-virus methods can be classified as content filters too, since they scan simplified versions of either the binary attachments of email or the HTML contents. Depending on where content or packets are filtered in the OSI or Internet model, email content filtering will refer to technologies designed to ascertain the logic of data and that depends on the application, spam, viruses, computer worms, denial-of-service attacks, Trojans, spyware, human understandable subject of data and much more because to an extent it depends on the application or user requirements, hate websites, curse words, and subject matter.

It is important to note that the Internet does not have a clear security model standard designed to limit the extent of security incidents which could potentially overload the Internet causing a global denial of service. Implementing an intelligent and sophisticated email content filtering technology is advisable.
