Commtouch's URL Filtering (URLF) is now integrated into Return Path's email
intelligence solutions for both enterprises as well as mailbox providers. Businesses rely

ROI, while ISPs and other mailbox providers enhance network performance and drive customer

email senders' platforms by analyzing the behavioral history of URLs and diagnosing URL
types and destinations in order to identify unusual behavior in real-time.
By integrating Commtouch's technology, Return Path further assists their customers in
improving email ROI through certified email distribution as well as faster and more
accurate attack detections. Built to immediately detect and block potential compromises
such as hacking and the hijacking of email senders' infrastructures for spam, phishing,
and malware distribution, Commtouch's URLF delivers industry-leading URL filtering
performance by combining the broadest Web coverage with the highest accuracy of
categorization. It leverages Commtouch's unique cloud infrastructure to index hundreds of
millions of sites into 64 categories, including highly granular categorizations of dynamic
Web 2.0 environments.
"The integration of Commtouch's URL filter benefits everyone that relies on Return
Path, from enterprises whose customers and brands we protect from fraud, to service
providers whose infrastructure we protect from unwanted and dangerous email," said Matt
Blumberg, CEO of Return Path. "The threat to accounts and email platforms is greatly
reduced and the danger of enterprises and service providers being turned into unsuspecting
spam and malware senders is minimized. With Commtouch's URLF we can significantly improve
the security of both email senders and mailbox providers. This greatly improves the inbox
experience, and increases customer satisfaction for all involved."

same time ensuring unhindered delivery of legitimate email communication," said Shlomi
Yanai, CEO at Commtouch. "We are very pleased that Return Path has chosen Commtouch's
