company overview

Pixm has developed a real-time phishing detection platform designed to prevent online security threats at the “point of click.”

The company's platform utilizes AI-driven brand authorization technology.

“While the cyber security market is saturated with vendors addressing network, application, or software layer vulnerabilities, according to research published by Deloitte, 91% of breaches start with phishing emails deceiving end users.”

Pixm’s solution is ‘in-browser”, meaning Pixm analyzes links as they are accessed by the browser; this approach offers wider protection (vs current email-based authenticators) as any link accessed by the browser is subject to verification.
