Zero Trust

A new approach to phishing and fraud prevention.

People are told to “stay vigilant” because conventional security isn’t effective or reliable.

MetaCert helps individuals and organisations significantly reduce the risk of phishing-led cyberattacks.

It’s now possible to verify the safety of links in text messages, email, chat apps, QR codes, and web browsers – before opening them.

People are told to stay vigilant when opening links because security systems leave them exposed.

Security leaves individuals and organisations exposed because the industry relies on threat detection to recognise scams.

 

Detection can’t recognise new scams until someone else finds and reports them.

 

When a new scam appears, people use instinct and guesswork. The outcome depends on luck rather than protection.

 

They’re expected to make decisions that technology should make for them.

Expecting people to rely on instinct is not an effective or reliable strategy for the future of banking and e-commerce

01

Cybercrime is expected to surge from £1 trillion a year to £14 trillion by 2029.

90% of cybercrime starts with phishing: digital fraud, investment scams, account takeovers, malware, and data breaches.

02

83% of phishing now targets mobile because phones create ideal conditions for deception. Small screens hide key details, notifications push people to act quickly, and there’s a built-in trust in whatever appears on the device.

03

The vast majority of phishing scams and targeted attacks begin with a dangerous link.

The unavoidable conclusion

If the problem is the link, the only real solution is to verify links.

Stop treating links as safe until proven otherwise. Apply Zero Trust.

When AI-led security fails to detect new dangerous links...

How is anyone supposed to know which links they can trust?

Is this safe or dangerous?

Is this safe or dangerous?

One “click” is all it takes.​

Criminals only need a handful of “clicks” to make their phishing scams profitable.

They only need 1 person to trust 1 dangerous link to compromise a business client.

Stop the click. Stop the attack.

Other security companies tell you to “stay vigilant” and “check suspicious links.”

Link Verifier tells you when a link is verified as legitimate, unverified, or reported as dangerous before you open it.

Verified

This link is verified.
It’s safe to open.

Unverified

This link isn’t verified yet.
Pause and check.

Dangerous

This link is dangerous.
Do not open it.

Zero Trust for web links. Trust no URL, always verify.

Zero Trust is the gold standard in cybersecurity because it rejects assumptions and verifies every user, device, and transaction. Unlike threat detection, which tries to spot danger after it appears, Zero Trust assumes nothing is safe until proven otherwise. Applied to URLs, it means every link is untrusted until verified as legitimate.

MetaCert’s Zero Trust for web links is an innovative approach to phishing and fraud prevention.

MetaCert’s Link Verifier technology gives banks and telecoms a simple way to protect customers from phishing-led cyberattacks.

Other security solutions assume new dangerous links are safe until proven otherwise. Link Verifier is different. It tells you when links are not verified so you know when to exercise caution.

AI security allow ALL dangerous links through - only blocking them AFTER they're reported (too late). Link Verifier works differently, it confirms when links are safe, and warns you about any unverified links.

Many links that look suspicious are safe.
Link Verifier tells you which ones you can trust.
