Increase Reliability - Decrease SPAM and Viruses - Illinois

print this article 
 

Email is an essential service for any organization, and professionally managed email improves organizational workflow and customer satisfaction. A missed email could mean a lost opportunity or a public-relations problem, two things every organization would like to avoid. Yet despite their importance, email servers have long suffered from excessive SPAM, security concerns, and viruses. The solution is a professionally managed email system from Transparen Corporation, which will increase email reliability, decrease spam, and protect against viruses.

SPAM, or Unsolicited Commercial Email (UCE)

SPAM slows down email servers, reducing quality of service, and distracts email users from legitimate emails, reducing productivity. Several measures help reduce the effects of SPAM, including improving server security, limiting the exposure of email addresses to spammers, and using SPAM-filtering software.

Email server software for Linux has had a long history of fighting SPAM. Transparen can help organizations avoid SPAM by evaluating the current email server (if there is one), suggesting alternatives, and implementing improvements in a way that ensures that emails will not be lost.

Security

Email is transmitted using plain-text, and the protocol commonly used to retrieve email from internet email servers (POP3) transmits user name and password information in clear text. Therefore, it is possible for a third-party to intercept log-in information and read sensitive information or cause emails to be lost.

Transparen can provide alternative ways to collect email that minimize this risk of email interception.

Viruses

Protecting your organization from viruses is an important goal, since viruses can destroy productivity, important documents, and security. To protect against the threat of viruses, we can configure your server to block high-risk attachments. We can also install virus scanners to scan emails before they are downloaded.

Transparen supports ClamAV, a GPL Virus Scanner.

 Husband-and-Wife Lawyers Secure Record $20.5 Million Verdict in MedMal Case
A husband-and-wife lawyer team has secured the highest reported medical malpractice verdict in Pennsylvania's Lackawanna County Common Pleas Court since 1999, when the same pair earned that distinction. Jeffrey M. Kornblau and Lynn Sare Kornblau helped a couple and their son win $20.5 million against a doctor and a Scranton hospital for birth complications that ultimately led to brain injury and a diagnosis of cerebral palsy. Jeff Kornblau said most of the jury verdict was for the son's long-term care.

 
 Calif. State Bar to Review Permanent Disbarment Proposal
California State Bar officials two years ago recommended that certain offenses should be grounds for a new, permanent disbarment. But the California Supreme Court met with State Bar officials last month and told them to limit lifetime banishment to the worst of the worst. So on Thursday, the State Bar Board of Governors' Committee on Regulation, Admissions and Discipline Oversight will take a look at a scaled-down proposal that would permit permanent disbarment only for lawyers disbarred for a second time.

 
 Office Culture Can Determine Firm's Success
As a law office management consultant, Joel A. Rose has seen that a firm's culture can be one of its major strengths when it is consistent with current and long-term objectives. However, a culture that prevents a firm from meeting competitive threats, or adapting to changing economic environments, can lead to the firm's stagnation and decline, unless its partners make a conscious effort to change. Rose discusses the difficult process of effecting a firm's cultural change.

Barish provides practical tips to help navigate a demanding life.

 
 Construction Firm Lays Off Nearly a Third of Its Associates
Stein, Ray & Harris, a construction law firm with 21 lawyers in Chicago, laid off nearly a third of its associates after construction litigation failed to increase as much as the firm expected this year, due to market uncertainty. The firm laid off four of its 14 associates this month, after hiring seven attorneys earlier this year in anticipation of an increase in construction litigation linked to the economic downturn, said partner Robert Harris. But the jump in such litigation "hasn't materialized."

 
 Firm Sued for Offering Job to Judge While He Sat on One of Its Cases
Lawyers who engaged a retiring judge in discussions about a future business relationship while he was ruling in one of their cases have been sued for damages -- specifically, the other party's attorney fees. The suit against Herten, Burstein, Sheridan, Cevasco, Bottinelli, Litt & Harz and partner Thomas Herten claims that the firm's actions amounted to professional negligence, and advances a third-party legal malpractice cause of action. The suit seeks compensatory and punitive damages.

 
 Small Firms Trim a Little, but Stay Optimistic
Leaders at smaller law firms say they're trimming costs, but the hatchet's staying in the shed -- for now. And while small firms are keeping retreats closer to home or eyeing operating costs more carefully, the turbulent economy is actually making some feel optimistic. Some managing partners say they're hoping that the economic downturn -- which is making some giant firms shudder -- will generate recruiting and business development opportunities, based partly on the appeal of small firms' lower rates.
