Human error is still the main reason why phishing attacks are successful all over the world, as 97% of people are unable to distinguish between fraudulent emails. With SpamTitan Plus, even if a user accidentally clicks on a phishing email, they won’t be taken to a site where malicious scripts can be downloaded or run on their computer in order to steal information. This additional layer of security is essential in defending against phishing attacks.
When SpamTitan Plus checks a URL, it ensures that it is safe. If the URL is validated as safe, the user is redirected to the desired destination. Otherwise, they will not be directed to the website, but will see a blocking page with additional information and options.
SpamTitan Plus checks the URL in real time, performs an analysis of the page to identify fake websites or fraudulent login pages, follows redirects and performs a series of other checks to ensure security.
