Return Path, Inc. announced the availability of a new brand intelligence product that observes an organization's email streams to ensure proper authentication and to combat phishing attempts disguised as outbound email from the company. Email Brand Monitor preserves customer trust in a company's email channel by providing email marketers with full visibility into known, unknown and potentially fraudulent email traffic. The product is part of the company's Email Intelligence Suite for Marketers, an innovative suite of products designed to solve email's toughest measurement and analytics challenges. Created to help marketers combat the growing threat of phishing in the email ecosystem, Email Brand Monitor provides email marketers with intelligence into all email streams to not only ensure a consistent outbound email policy but also protect a company's brand. Through daily and weekly digest reports, Email Brand Monitor keeps marketers informed and enables them to guarantee their companies email standards, even with third-party mailers. The product provides broad-spectrum early warning of any domains that are being hijacked by cyber criminals, empowering email marketers to limit the impact of phishing attacks. Email authentication data, including Sender Policy Framework (SPF), Domain Keys Identified Mail (DKIM), and Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting and Conformance (DMARC)-related reports are collected via Return Path ISP partners. This data is reported back to marketers in real-time through an intuitive web-based user interface, which also shows which messages experience authentication problems, which were auto-forwarded, and which were successfully delivered into inboxes.
