Abstract

The endless campaign between spammers and antispammers has been proceeding since the early 1990s. However to date, spam has still steadily grown and anti-spam techniques have continuously encountered various disguise and evading of spammers. To reduce the incentive for spammers to send out high volumes of unsolicited email indiscriminately, this paper proposes a service-oriented spam filtering system using shared fingerprints. The spam filtering system, relying on collaboration of multi-recipients and shared spam knowledge, set up on SOA and virtualization, possesses good performance and application prospect.
