F5 Message Security Module (MSM) Success Story

MSM has saved us the cost of doubling our antispam server infrastructure and the headaches that go with it, not to mention the storage and bandwidth savings. It's not a trivial amount of money. Casey Scott, Network Administrator, F5 Networks.

Business Challenge:
About 97 percent of F5's inbound email is spam-a standard amount for companies using email today-and the volume is constantly increasing. In fact, it is estimated that the amount of spam being sent worldwide has doubled in less than a year. This unsolicited email places an enormous load on the company's email servers and bandwidth, increases the amount of maintenance required to manage its email filtering systems, and presents relentless security issues. Finding a way to reduce the impact of spam on IT resources was a key challenge for F5's IT department.

Business Benefits:
• More than $1.3 million in infrastructure savings
• 60% reduction of spam from IT Infrastructure - more than 637 million messages in the past year
• Reduced spam-related maintenance time and resources
• 200 hours in productivity per week gained companywide
• Sped up delivery of priority email

Using the TrustedSource ROI Calculator, Scott calculates that MSM has resulted in an annual cost savings of more than $1.3 million on an investment of less than $5,000.
