Cloudmark Authority – How it works

Cloudmark Authority, a carrier-grade messaging and email security software solution, delivers the industry's fastest and most accurate spam, phishing and virus protection.

Designed for large-scale carrier deployments, Cloudmark Authority delivers up to 20 times faster messaging throughput than competitive solutions while utilizing up to 90% less CPU. This superior performance translates to higher infrastructure efficiency and significantly reduced systems total cost of ownership.

Cloudmark Authority's distributed architecture together with a full local cache of the latest threat data stored at each installation enable the highest level of filtering reliability.

System Requirements

Cloudmark Authority runs in memory and its lean run-time requirements only impact MTA performance by 5-10% compared to the usual impact of 40%+ of other anti-spam applications. This design translates into higher infrastructure efficiency and lower total cost of ownership. Cloudmark Authority requires far less processing power than competitive solutions while achieving greater message throughput.
