- Phishing was the most common type of cybercrime in 2020
A flaw in email design lets a criminal insert any sender’s address in a forged email, and this is now widely exploited by criminals. Sendmarc mitigates this flaw using DMARC.
DMARC stands for Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance. The formal standard was created by PayPal, Google, Microsoft, and Yahoo in 2012 to prevent email abuse. It was primarily adopted by the financial industry to improve email security including the authentication of emails and reduce the threat of cyber-attacks.
“Most individuals and companies are still unaware that emails can be spoofed to make them look like they have come from someone else, often used to trick people into supporting a fraud. With a partnership between Sendmarc and IT Naturally we have the tools available to prevent this. I am incredibly pleased about our new partnership and how we will be working together to make the internet a safer place.”
Richard Gardner, CEO, IT Naturally
Sendmarc was born from the simple desire of its 3 founders to help make the internet safer. The trio wanted to make it normal for people to have complete confidence that the email they received was in fact the ‘real thing’ and not sent by an impersonator, imposter, or fraudster.
The company has purposely pursued a sole product focus so that all our energy is directed towards building the best engineered, easiest, and fastest to deploy the product. This approach also enables us to concentrate on rapid innovation and iteration to make our product always better than any other on the market.
“We are excited by the potential of our partnership with IT Naturally. Our collaboration will ensure that IT Naturally’s customers are protected against impersonation and phishing attacks, through DMARC compliance. Sendmarc’s software, services and expertise will complement IT Naturally’s cybersecurity offerings to ensure only verified customers’ email reaches the intended destination. We look forward to working with IT Naturally to make the internet safer for everyone.”
