The best lookalike domain defence
Application emails sent “as you” like password resets, order confirmations, appointment reminders and service updates are critical. We ensure those emails are authenticated and secure, relieving the burden on your security team and ensuring seamless business operations.
Comprehensive solution
Our holistic approach empowers your team with total visibility into all impersonation risks including domain spoofing, malicious lookalike domains and compromised supplier accounts. And we reveal all emails being sent as you, including 3rd parties and applications. Instead of juggling multiple vendors tackling different pieces of the impersonation problem, you can simplify with a single vendor to tackle the whole problem.
Key features of our Impersonation Protection
Adaptive controls to mitigate risk
We allow customers to apply adaptive controls, such as automatic isolation of URLs from compromised supplier accounts without disrupting your business. Others cannot give you adaptive controls to mitigate risk.

Dynamic detection of lookalike domains
We dynamically detect new registered domains that pose as your business and uncover malicious lookalike domains of your suppliers, revealing the messaging volume and messages delivered from those malicious lookalikes. No other vendor can provide that kind of visibility.
