About Us

Our Story

At IRONSCALES, we believe communication should be safe. While email was designed to help people stay connected and conduct business, it also became a target for criminals and scammers.

Communication, in all its forms, is fundamental to being human. That's why we set out to protect organizations, ensuring people can connect and communicate safely.

The Future of Phishing Protection

In a crowded market where everyone claims to be first, IRONSCALES focuses on being the last—the last line of defense against efforts to compromise email security. We combine artificial intelligence and human insights in an ongoing cycle of innovation to make email security solutions remarkably easy to start using and dead simple to manage.

We help our customers leverage more people and attention against email threats than any other solution or enterprise in the market. Our unique approach decentralizes intelligence and harnesses AI for automated email incident response and remediation.

What does this mean for your day-to-day workflow? Simple. Our self-learning platform installs in minutes and starts working immediately. It dramatically reduces the time security teams spend on email security, working alongside your existing tools and processes to save you time and money.
