Implementing DMARC to eliminate phishing emails
In this interview with Help Net Security, Alexander Garcia-Tobar, CEO at Valimail, explains the importance of implementing DMARC, as email is still greatly used by cybercriminals to infiltrate and attack organizations.
"Email has been and still is one of the most common attack tools used by cybercriminals. Why do you think this is so?

Yet, it has no built-in authentication mechanism, allowing anyone to claim they are a trusted person or company, leading to unmitigated fraud and abuse. Compared to other transaction markets like credit cards and HTTPS (e-commerce), every transaction needs authentication..."

3 Inspiring Examples Of B2B Social Selling For Your Own Strategies
Marketing's Curse: Everyone talks a big game, but only few can prove it.
"Want to see examples of B2B social selling paying off in a big way?
In initial consultations with a business that is interested in B2B social selling, one of the biggest hurdles is being able to show that social selling will work for them. I can show case studies, talk about previous successes, and educate business leaders on the benefits that social selling can provide - but without some third-party examples to show social proof that sliver of doubt will remain until the results start to speak for themselves.
