The rat-trap spamtracking-system
The rat-trap spamtracking-system is an open source java-based client-server solution that can help individuals or enterprises
to track down spammers. The main purpose of the system is to build a link between received spam-emails and email harvester.
This link can help to prove that a certain spam-email sender has retreived your email-adress by using illegal methods such
as email harvesters.
Why is the rat-trap better than other spamtracking systems?
Most of the systems that are available have some major flaws:
- They are not scalable. No possibility to install the system on distributed systems.
- Tracking, database and the visualization are strongly intertwined and not flexible at all.
- The RDBMS and the presentation layer are fixed and cannot be changed without a lot of effort. Most of them use PHP and MySQL.
Those arguments lead to the major benefits of the rat-trap spamtracking-system:
- High Performance: The tracking and localizing services run as multithreaded - cronjobs.
- Scalable: Multiple instances of those services can be executed on different servers within your corporate network. This speeds up the process of spam-tracking if you have a huge number of spam-email.
- Loose tangling:The lure-website, the client and the server components are using XML-RPC for all communication tasks. Regarding to the implementation and used technologies (java, .net, OOK! ;-) those components are completely independent from each other.
