Disrupting Status Quo. Why Visionaries Lead.

Since day one at IRONSCALES, we’ve believed that technology alone isn’t enough. We knew early on that AI, on its own, could never fully account for the complexity of human behavior in communications. That belief guided our journey from the moment we opened our doors in 2014, right through to today’s recognition in Gartner’s first Magic Quadrant for Email Security.

Gartner’s positioning of IRONSCALES as a Visionary leader is more than an accolade—it’s a validation of our original premise, that AI alone isn’t enough. We anticipated this over eight years ago, and it’s why we’ve always taken a different approach. Where other relied on rules or static models, we’ve been steadfast in our insistence that the best way to combat emerging threats is to combine advanced machine intelligence with human insight.

Humans possess context and judgment that no algorithm can replicate. AI excels at speed and scale. Put them together, and you get what we call Adaptive AI. It constantly evolves, leveraging real-time feedback from the people it protects—employees, IT teams, and admins. This combination has been at the core of our platform from the start. It’s what makes IRONSCALES better. And even more than that, it’s what makes us different.

Our customers expect us to do more than follow trends. They count on us to anticipate threats before they emerge, to adapt faster than attackers can evolve, and to deliver protection that feels effortless but is deeply powerful.

These aren’t just goals for us—they are promises we make. Promises to stay ahead. Promises to innovate. And promises to keep pushing forward, because when it comes to securing communications, “good enough” will never be enough. And the status quo will continue to be challenged

This is why being recognized as a Visionary leader matters. It’s not just about where we stand, it is not even about revenue, it’s about what it says to our customers: that by working with us, you’re choosing a company that delivers on those promises. A company who challenges the status quo and redefines what email security can and should be.

As threats grow more advanced—from GenAI-generated phishing emails to deepfakes blurring the lines of reality—our mission remains the same: to deliver security that anticipates, evolves, and adapts. It’s what IRONSCALES customers expect, and it’s a promise we will always keep.

I encourage you to read the 2024 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Email Security Platforms and take a close look at what they said about our customer experience, our ability to adapt to emerging needs, and how our internal R&D drives innovation. If any of that resonates, reach out to one of my colleagues. We’d love to learn about your specific challenges, and if we’re a good fit, we’ll show you exactly why.
