  FTC launches Operation Secure Your Server
Time: 04:16 EST/09:16 GMT | News Source: InfoWorld | Posted By: Joshua Baer

The U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has identified more than 1 million IP (Internet Protocol) addresses providing open proxies or open relays, allowing spammers to hide their identities when sending unsolicited e-mail, and is alerting server owners that they might be inadvertently helping spam to flourish. On Thursday, the FTC and 36 other government agencies from 26 countries launched Operation Secure Your Server, in which the agencies will e-mail owners of tens of thousands of servers, asking them to check the server configurations for possible open relays or open proxies.
