Case Study: ZIM achieves robust email security and reduced phishing risk with IRONSCALES

IRONSCALES provides an easy-to-use, AI-driven platform that filters and records all phishing attempts allowing ZIM to be safer than ever before

ZIM Integrated Shipping Services, a leading global container carrier, was facing a steady barrage of increasingly sophisticated spear‑phishing attacks and domain‑spoofing impersonations that slipped past its single existing gateway and left employees with no easy way to report or track incidents. To close these gaps, ZIM implemented IRONSCALES’ AI‑driven, self‑learning email security platform along with its phishing training and simulation tools.

IRONSCALES delivered automated phishing analysis, mitigation and remediation plus integrated employee simulations, acting as a cloud‑based second layer that inspects roughly 7 million emails per week and automatically blocks or deletes about 12,000 phishing and spam messages weekly. The IRONSCALES deployment enabled instant employee reporting and community threat sharing, reduced time spent on phishing incidents, lowered ZIM’s overall security risk exposure, and improved employee awareness, productivity and threat visibility.
