"We adopted Ironscales a year ago, and it’s been amazing how they’ve helped reduce the time between identifying a potential threat and resolving it. We used to dedicate hours to manually going through reported emails and following up on them. Ironscales has helped us to cut the number of man hours down by 95%."
Interim Chief Information Officer, City of Memphis
“IRONSCALES is catching 80-90% of phishing attempts and other miscellaneous emails that shouldn’t be coming through. It’s performing as advertised, so when we do need to remediate, the process works perfectly. And our people are finally ‘getting’ security'.”
