PineApp has released a free zombie test that can instantly discover whether an organization’s computer network might be an unwitting spamming machine, a “zombie” or ‘bot’ that can send thousands of infected spam messages to other networks without its knowledge.
As a global provider of appliance-based solutions for email and network security, PineApp Corporation (http://www.pineapp.com) has created the free diagnostic tool—Zombie Detection System™ (ZDS™)—to determine if a network is infected. Organizations can simply go to http://www.rbltest.com/, enter the IP address and get an instant analysis. Free Software Tests for Bot Infections - Desktop Security News Wire - Dark Reading
