Agari Creates Trust Network Partner Program

Security solution provider Agari has launched the Agari Trust Network, a new partner program designed to eliminate email cyberattacks and protect user data. Agari said its partner program underscores the company’s renewed commitment to protecting user data and eliminating cyberthreats.

The Agari Trust Network is made up of a global group of infrastructure and security solution providers dedicated to providing email support and security solutions for customers and to preserving brand reputation, according to the company. Charter members of the program include Epsilon, Inbox Marketer, Silverpop and Yesmail, among others. The company said the newly founded cyber-ecosystem will create a level of visibility and control for managing email data in the cloud and establish a connected community of brands, mail providers and tech partners working to weed out cyberthreats.

“As recent news headlines keep reminding us, cybercriminals seem to get only bolder and more brazen in their attacks on consumers and companies across the globe, and email, unfortunately, is the single most effective and widely used vector of attack,” said Patrick Peterson, CEO and founder of Agari, in a statement. “With the Agari Trust Network, we’re creating an ecosystem of email trust, ensuring an ever-widening circle of companies that are committed to securing email against malicious email attacks, spoofing and the other schemes these sophisticated thieves use.”

Charter members will have access to the Agari Pro email authentication solution. The program is also expected to help partners provide customers with global visibility into their email flows and gain better email deliverability through additional best practices, according to the press release.

“By joining the Agari Trust Network, we can be absolutely confident that our brand and our business, and those of our customers, are protected from email-borne cyberattacks and cybercriminals,” said Brad van der Woerd, director, Intelligence Products at Yesmail.

The Trust Network wad revealed during the recent Messaging, Malware and Mobile Anti-Abuse Working Group (try saying that one three times fast). Agari is currently recruiting new charter members as well as traditional partner members for the program.
