Why
We Exist

Mailprotector exists to unleash email as the revolutionary communication tool it was meant to be, so that people can use their God-given talents to  move our world forward.

Our Story

We got our start building a simple email filtering solution for web developers. The effectiveness of our approach quickly spread beyond those first customers, and Mailprotector was born in 2000. Before we knew it, we were protecting millions of messages every day.

But we weren’t content just building better email filters. We saw a fundamental flaw in how email security works. The industry’s ‘trust first, filter second’ approach creates a lose-lose situation: users remain vulnerable while IT teams waste time fixing preventable problems.

So we changed the game by resetting trust to zero—nothing gets through until it proves it belongs. Our patented zero trust email security empowers MSPs to replace complexity with confidence and constant fixes with true prevention. While others chase features, we remain laser-focused on one mission: making email security work the way it should.

How We Behave

Finish Strong

We do whatever it takes to get the job done whether that means going over, around, or through the obstacles in our way. We work hard doing hard things because that’s where the reward is.

Own Your Work

We take the initiative to figure things out and accept the responsibility for finding the solution. We accept accountability to those depending on us.

Pursue Excellence

We are internally driven to be great at what we do. Our natural ambition comes from the passion of doing what we were created to do.

Stay Humble

We are team players who consider others’ interests as much as our own and know that only when the team wins, do we truly win.

Be Curious

We think deeply and creatively about the things we encounter with an insatiable desire to improve and a disdain for the status quo.

Invest In Others

We seek to be authentic and genuine with our teammates and our partners, because we care for them. We operate with integrity by saying what we do and doing what we say.

Sweat The Details

In our work and with our words, we are conscientious because the details make the difference.

With Purpose

The printing press. The telegraph wire. And email. Three of the most powerful inventions in all of history that facilitate the essence of our human existence…communication. Not just the transfer of information but the sharing of ideas, plans, hopes, fears, and dreams. The memorialization of our shared existence.

We come together in organizations. We share our research, our strategies, our failures, our analysis, and our theories. In doing so, not only do we move our own lives forward but our entire planet. And the faster and more clearly we can communicate, the faster we advance.

At Mailprotector we have an unparalleled opportunity to shepherd this technology for future generations. Thank you for sharing the journey with us.
