Vipul's Razor is a distributed, collaborative, spam detection and
|
|
filtering network. Through user contribution, Razor establishes a
|
|
distributed and constantly updating catalogue of spam in propagation that
|
|
is consulted by email clients to filter out known spam. Detection is done
|
|
with statistical and randomized signatures that efficiently spot mutating
|
|
spam content. User input is validated through reputation assignments based
|
|
on consensus on report and revoke assertions which in turn is used for
|
|
computing confidence values associated with individual signatures.

|
Razor Agents are written in Perl and will work on most Unix operating
|
|
systems and others OSes for which perl is available.

Vipul's Razor v2 is almost a complete rewrite of Razor v1.
