More Asian countries move up spam ranks

More Asian countries are moving up the ranks in the list of top spamming countries in the world, according to a new report by Sophos.

The security vendor's latest "Dirty Dozen" list, which tracks spam activity from July to September, listed China, Japan, the Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam, among the top 30 countries from which spam originated.

In contrast, between April and June this year, only China, South Korea, Taiwan, Japan and the Philippines were ranked among the top 30. Malaysia and Singapore were ranked 31st and 33rd, respectively, during that period.

During the third quarter, China--including Hong Kong--remained Asia's top spamming nation, despite seeing a dip in the amount of spam it contributed to the overall volume.
