Spam Filter Service

Meeting Notes: CCCApply Sub-Committee: Spam Filter Web Service

Zoom Recording: 12.09.19-CCCApply-Spam Filter Service Meeting

  1. Organize new Spam Filter User Group, focused on fraud coming in through CCCApply, to identify enhancements to the Spam Filter web service and best practices for colleges to combat fraud;

    1. Schedule and hold monthly online meetings (every third Monday of each month), open to CCC college staff and admin, See schedule on the 2019-2020 CCCApply Sub-Committee Meeting Schedule.

  2. Review list of change requests identified by the colleges during the 12/09 meeting:

    1. Update the Spam Filter User Interface in the Administrator with:

      1. Add the IP Address to the spam filter summary table

      2. Add the Country that matches the IP address or region to the table

      3. a way to Search by existing column data (whatever the columns are) CCCID, Email Address, DOB, etc. 

    2. Look into adding a Zip Code / Area Code validation check in the Permanent & Mailing address sets

    3. Add ability to create a rule in the Administrator that would allow the colleges to identify criteria that should move the application directly into the suspension folder (spam filter) or prevents it/whitelist). In other words, “don’t implement the “model” if the app meets specific criteria (rule logic). App would have to bypass the prediction service 


  1. Other Action: Check with the new OpenCCC PM on which version of ReCAPTCHA will be used in the new OpenCCC system to combat robots and other bad actor technology. Colleges wants to know whether our current is too outdated to be effective?) Is OpenCCC redesign planning to include an updated version?  Which tool and which version will be used?  Why do we not have one in the Application?  Get history on this and inform the group.

Need CO support convincing colleges that spammers are attacking colleges that are providing free .edu emails, Google Apps/storage, and MS software (Office365)
