An application and system for inspecting an email message to determine if the email message is being used in a phishing ploy. When an email recipient receives an email message, the email message is sent to an EScam server for inspection. During its inspection, the EScam server considers various criteria, such as an originating country for an IP address associated with a sender of the email message, and assigns a score to the email message. Based on the score of the email message and threshold levels set within the EScam server, an email client determines whether the email message is part of a phishing ploy or a legitimate email message.

L'invention concerne une application et un système permettant d'inspecter un message de courriel afin de déterminer si ce message est utilisé dans une manoeuvre d'hameçonnage. Lorsqu'un destinataire de courriel reçoit un message de courriel, ce message est envoyé à un serveur EScam pour être inspecté. Pendant cette inspection, le serveur EScam considère des critères variés, tels que le pays d'origine pour une adresse IP associée l'expéditeur du message, et attribue une notation au message de courriel. En fonction de cette notation et d'un ensemble de niveaux de seuils dans le serveur EScam, un client détermine si le message fait partie d'une manoeuvre d'hameçonnage ou est un message légitime.
