Quantitative and Geographic Spam Statistics

The Commtouch Spam Lab provides a wide array of information including: the number of spam outbreaks with monthly, quarterly and annual breakdowns, geographic breakdown of the origins of spam, and more. The Commtouch Spam Lab also includes a world map that shows emerging spam outbreaks in real-time, with detailed information such as distribution scale, speed and sources.
