Kaseya has announced the acquisition of INKY, a leader in generative AI-based email security, aiming to enhance the protection capabilities offered to managed service providers (MSPs) and small to midsize businesses (SMBs). This strategic move enables Kaseya, renowned for its IT and security management software, to integrate INKY's innovative solutions into its comprehensive platform.
“Kaseya is committed to being the indispensable partner that helps MSPs lead in this next chapter of IT and security,” stated Rania Succar, CEO of Kaseya.
AI-Driven Email Security
As part of the acquisition, Kaseya is set to leverage INKY’s cutting-edge AI-driven email security technology which is aimed at combating sophisticated phishing and impersonation threats. Succar highlighted the unique strengths of Kaseya, saying, "No one else has our scale, data advantage, and end-to-end platform to deliver enterprise-grade protection to small and midsize businesses." With INKY’s integration, these security tools are expected to become more robust by utilizing Kaseya's extensive data and platform ecosystem, thus offering a highly connected and proactive security experience.
INKY’s Contextual Intelligence
INKY’s email security solution is distinguished by its use of generative AI combined with behavioural analysis and real-time user coaching. This technology enables users to make informed decisions about potential threats by providing contextual alerts directly within their inbox, rather than simply blocking messages. This advanced approach plays a crucial role in defending against emerging threats such as conversation hijacking and QR-code phishing, which has cemented INKY as a trusted choice in email security.
Kaseya’s Global Ecosystem
Integrating into Kaseya's platform allows INKY to harness Kaseya's global scale and data resources, enhancing its threat detection capabilities and response times. This synergy is expected to fortify MSPs and IT teams, transforming email from a vulnerability into a resilient line of defence against cyber threats.
Kaseya's Scale, Data, and Commitment
Dave Baggett, Founder and CEO of INKY, expressed pride in INKY's achievements, noting, “We’re incredibly proud of what we’ve built at INKY — a product that has consistently stayed ahead of attackers by understanding intent, not just content.” He emphasised that joining Kaseya will amplify INKY's innovation through Kaseya's substantial scale, data, and R&D investment, ultimately extending their reach and enhancing email safety for a broader audience. INKY will continue as a stand-alone product and will also be part of the Kaseya 365 User offering.
