Email sender authentication is one of the most effective ways to combat phishing attacks. The phishing email is usually done by spoofing the identity of the email sender to trick the recipient into providing personal information or money.

When the EG-Platform system confirms that an email is from a bogus sender and violates security guidelines based on the data the technology has learned and collected, the system will immediately block such phishing before when it reaches the recipient.
