The QR code analyzer technology determines whether QR codes link to malicious sites when scanned. Hackers have taken to using fake QR codes to trick users into phishing ruses to obtain confidential data when scanned. The secure link utility runs all email links through a secure analyzer before enabling the recipient to safely open the link with the goal to limit security threats, particularly ransomware.Both new technologies provide businesses and their employees with extra reassurance that their email communications are safe, Hornetsecurity said. As Hornetsecurity chief executive Daniel Hofmann explained:“Phishing attacks and fake QR codes are on the increase, so we are pleased to launch unique technologies that will combat these ever-growing threats. The QR Code Analyzer and Secure Links tools will benefit businesses by fighting cybersecurity attacks in a safe, reliable and cost-effective way."
