Fifteen Web Giants just launched DMARC.org (Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting & Conformance), a project that wants to reduce phishing emails.
“The companies—along with others such as financial-service companies Bank of America Corp., FMR LLC’s Fidelity Investments and eBay Inc.’s PayPal—are hoping to create an environment that allows the recipient of an email from, say, a bank, to feel secure that it isn’t a trick.”
Among the founders, there are banks, webmail providers, social networks and e-commerce sites: AOL, Comcast, Google (GMail), Microsoft (Hotmail), Yahoo (Yahoo! Mail), American Greetings, Bank of America, Facebook, Fidelity, LinkedIn, Paypal, Agari, Cloudmark, eCert, ReturnPath et Trusted Domain Project.
