14 DAY TRIAL // Webroot and RSA, the security division of EMC, have announced a new technology partnership. Webroot’s Real-Time Anti-Phishing Service will be integrated into RSA’s FraudAction Anti-Phishing Service.
The combination of Webroot’s service and RSA’s automated phishing detection technology will allow organizations to detect phishing attacks in real time.
Webroot processes billions of URLs every month, which allows the company to identify malicious websites before other anti-phishing technologies.
“Combining Webroot's capabilities with RSA's automated phishing detection helps us more rapidly qualify suspected phishing sites and quickly determine which URL requires further investigation,” commented Avi Rosen, director of anti-fraud solutions at RSA.
“Having additional real-time capabilities helps us to reduce the lifecycle of phishing attacks while helping to ensure our customers are receiving the most efficient and effective anti-phishing service available.”
According to recent studies, the number of phishing attacks increased by 59% last year.
