Email Spoofing and Phishing Finally Has a Solution
Credit Pacific Service Union RICHMOND, Va., July 29 /PRNewswire/ -- MessageLevel.com, the
leader in email authentication technology, today announced the
availability of the Message Level Email Authentication Protocol.

protection against email
spoofing, electronic messaging fraud, and email Phishing
attacks.
Using components of the email messages themselves, the Message
Level Protocol creates origination records for each outgoing
message, which enables Receiving Systems to query back
automatically as to the authenticity of received email based upon
whether or not the messages actually originated from the purported
sender. As such, the Message Level Protocol creates an impenetrable
solution against email fraud, guarantees 100% detection of spoofed
emails, and generates absolutely no false positives. The Message
Level Protocol provides companies with a secure, reliable, and
easily accessible solution to prevent spoofed email and Phishing
attacks, which has previously been seen as impossible.
