Americans lost nearly $9 billion from phone scams in 2018, when over 26 million robocalls were made to US phones (a 46% year-over-year growth). In 2020, consumers receive an average of 28 spam calls per month. Phone calls and text messages are the second largest entry point for spam, following email. Scans 70+ spam databases in real-time that may have registered and flagged the email sender as a spam or scam associated address.Īdditionally, all of the AI-based deep-scanning takes place on the mobile handset directly, no information leaves your device, and the functionality is built securely into your inbox to protect you from scams.Įdison Mail+ also offers Spam Blocker, a new way to permanently banish bothersome calls and texts from strangers or overly persistent individuals, from the safety of your mailbox. Verify Sender is unique and set apart from anti-phishing technology offered by existing email service providers because it offers the following layers of security to cover the 98% of senders that do not have DMARC configured:ĭetects and alerts you in real-time if emails are sent from invalid disposable domains that frequently pass through your email service provider undetected. (Edison Mail sends an anonymous TCP connection to the sender’s domain and a probe command to check if the domain can receive email.)ĭetects name spoofing based on your previous communication history (Edison Mail’s built-in AI can recognize and differentiate between who normally contacts you or not). With 98% of email senders not configuring their domains securely via DMARC, they require additional anti-phishing protection for effective security. Meanwhile, hackers can still impersonate most of the businesses and organizations that do not have DMARC, and authenticated logos are not effective against those types of spoof-email phishing attacks. While some email service providers offer Authenticated Logo functionality based on an open standard called BIMI, which requires email senders to implement DMARC configuration and host their brand image at a certain URL - only 2% of email senders 1, and less than 100 of the Fortune 500, have a valid DMARC configuration and the adoption rate is extremely low (2% in 10 years). Edison Mail+ checks how trustworthy the origin of an email is based on whether it is a permitted sender by the domain owner or not. The first layer of investigation is SPF & DMARC validation. If a sender’s email server doesn’t respond as “authentic” mail should, a suspicious email warning to the user is triggered. Verify Sender then applies a four-level deep investigation of new emails in real-time as they enter the inbox to assess for potential threats or scams. Verify Sender, the vanguard feature of Edison Mail+, is a powerful new AI-based technical protocol that conducts a handshake between sender/receiver across inbound mail. ![]() Receive a warning before falling victim to costly phishing, identity spoofing, and malware efforts.
