COLUMBIA, MD, May 01, 2013 (Marketwired via COMTEX) —
Message Systems, the leader in digital messaging software, has
partnered with Return Path, the global leader in email intelligence,
to offer an email platform that enables financial services
organizations to protect their customers and their infrastructure
while mitigating the cost of fraud. Unlike point solutions that are
more reactive in nature, this solution combines Momentum(TM), the
most powerful email delivery platform available, with Domain Secure,
the market-leading anti-phishing solution, to provide the tools
needed for unsurpassed sending speeds and high volume capabilities,
outstanding reliability and industry-leading deliverability rates and
complete visibility into the full-spectrum of email phishing threats.
“With this solution, the financial services sector can confidently
engage with their customers by email while proactively blocking more
customer-targeted phishing and fraud than ever before,” said Ken
Takahashi, general manager, anti-phishing solutions at Return Path.
“Our anti-fraud, anti-phishing solution matched with Message System’s
outstanding software will help both marketing and security
professionals within financial services companies optimize messaging
to ensure engagement, provide excellent deliverability, and protect
their valuable brand and customers from phishing and fraud.”
The Message Systems Momentum platform will be combined with Domain
Secure, part of Return Path’s Email Intelligence Suite. Domain Secure
protects brands and preserves customer trust by providing visibility
into all known, unknown and potentially fraudulent email activity,
ensuring a consistent email authentication policy and proactively
blocking any phishing or spoofing attempts before they reach
customers. The joint offering will provide a complete, highly secure
solution that allows financial services organizations the ability to
protect customers and infrastructure while also mitigating the cost
of fraud — now estimated at nearly $6 billion annually for U.S.
businesses. The solution will also provide clear visibility into
email traffic, industry-best sending speeds and volume capabilities,
and reliable deliverability.
“Organizations need assurance that they can engage with customers via
digital messages without posing a threat to network and data
security,” said George Schlossnagle, president and CEO of Message
Systems. “With Return Path’s anti-phishing solution paired with the
Momentum platform, our clients in the financial services sector are
able to safeguard digital messages and monitor for missteps that
could result in expensive breaches or compliance violations — all
while maintaining uninterrupted high-volume messaging operations. We
value our relationship with Return Path, and we’re enthusiastic about
working together with them to help our clients grow their businesses
while protecting their brands and their customers.”
