Porter and Matulovich detail a new partnership that sees their two companies working to offer businesses a solution to cyber breaches done through email.
IronTree, which was acquired by JSE-listed Metrofile in December 2021, provides data management services including cloud backup, disaster recovery and specialised server hosting in a private cloud. It also offers cybercrime and ransomware prevention, ongoing privacy law compliance management and business continuity planning services.
Sendmarc specialises in mitigating a flaw in email design that lets a criminal insert any sender’s address in a forged email, a tactic now widely exploited by criminals. Topics of discussion include: IronTree and Sendmarc’s respective business models; details around the partnership between the two companies; ways in which email impersonation is perpetrated; and tools for mitigating this risk.
As part of an effort to deal with this issue, over two million companies have adopted the global security standard for email, called DMARC, which was established a few years ago by a consortium of the world's largest technology companies to create a global protocol that will end the impersonation problem.
Some of the standard’s main backers include: Google, Microsoft, Apple, PayPal, Facebook, the US department of homeland security and the EU government.
