We’re pleased to share that Red Sift has been named Best Performing Company – Security & Infrastructure in the 2025 Emerging Stars Awards.

Continued innovation to drive success

This award highlights the impact of the Red Sift Pulse Platform in helping organisations strengthen their cybersecurity.

We also remain committed to adapting and responding to emerging threats. Following last year’s SubdoMailing attacks, we announced DNS Guardian, giving organisations real-time visibility and control over their DNS infrastructure, helping detect misconfigurations and prevent DNS hijacking before it becomes a threat. 

Scaling for growth

As we look ahead in 2025, we’re scaling our product and engineering efforts to meet the evolving needs of our customers. From defending against phishing and spoofing to simplifying email authentication, we’re focused on building practical tools that help businesses stay secure. 

Our long-term goal remains the same: Building a fundamentally safer internet for all.
