Abstract

Spam and viruses are ever-increasing security issue for anyone with an email account. Unsolicited junk mail steals system resources and leads to lost productivity, storage, and bandwidth. Spam can also be hostile and contain virus and Trojan horses. In the most cases, spammers are anonymous and they steal or use our resources and damage our systems by sending viruses. There are many standard techniques to detect and filter spam. However, these techniques still cannot effectively prevent spam attacks. Thus, in this paper we propose a new approach, “eTrap”, which is based on honeypot/honeytoken concept to fight against spam.
