Worldwide escalation of frequent and sophisticated spear-phishing and email spoofing attacks skyrockets demand for its mailbox-level email security built on machine learning algorithms
IRONSCALES has announced that it increased customer bookings by nearly 700 percent in 2017. The first anti email phishing platform to combine human intelligence with machine learning, IRONSCALES demand skyrocketed in part to the worldwide escalation of frequent and sophisticated spear-phishing and email spoofing attacks that are easily defeating traditional security firewalls and secure email gateways. The growth-stage cybersecurity company, which recently announced its first UK hire, enters 2018 with a global customer base spanning the energy & utilities, healthcare, financial services, manufacturing and government industries, among many others.
“2017 was a year in which organizations around the world began to witness firsthand how their legacy email security and phishing mitigation technologies can no longer detect or prevent against the onslaught of phishing emails,” said Eyal Benishti, IRONSCALES founder and CEO. “Since we founded the company, our team has worked tirelessly to educate security teams about the risks prompted during all phases of an email phishing attack. Our platform intentionally combines human intelligence with machine learning technologies to detect, prevent and remediate attacks in real-time and at all stages, and as evident by our monumental year, companies are starting to see why this approach is essential to phishing prevention.”
