Apple launched a feature called “Sign In With Apple\u201d<\/a> in 2019, which aimed to allow users the ability to sign up for servers or accounts privately in order to protect their e-mail addresses. Now, the service has been enhanced with a new feature called \u201cHide My Email.\u201d<\/a> This new feature is designed to protect users from phishing attacks or marketing spam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

E-mail clients now include automatic spam filters that put these messages in specific folders, but they aren\u2019t necessarily perfect. Spam e-mails can still reach inboxes, and oftentimes, important messages from previously unknown senders can get sent to spam accidentally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not to mention, capturing and selling e-mails is a huge<\/em> business. Phishing<\/a> e-mails hook many people who unknowingly provide personal information to fraudulent requests. During the global Coronavirus pandemic, phishing jumped 220 percent, according to F5 Labs<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apple even fell under attack, as several phishing e-mails were sent posing as officials from the technology giant. Now, Apple is fighting back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apple users can now create single-use e-mail addresses to use in certain websites thanks to the \u201cHide My Email\u201d program<\/a>. New e-mails are automatically made available in the user\u2019s primary e-mail inbox. They can also convert them to a single-use e-mail address to curtail spam messages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other platforms are joining the fight against spam as well. 1Password is collaborating with Fastmail to introduce a feature called “Masked Email,”<\/a> which produces unique e-mail addresses for logins. Users can control all of the different addresses they create by enabling or disabling them. If users suspect their e-mail address is shared, sold, or sent spam, they can simply disable the e-mail altogether.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cloudfare is another company dedicated to ending e-mail spam and tightening security. The \u201cCloudfare Email Routing and Email Security DNS Wizard\u201d<\/a> is  designed to safely and securely protect users from phishing. Cloudfare is free and integrates with Gmail, Office 365, Exchange, Yahoo, and AOL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since these mega companies have introduced novel features to protect users from identity theft, phishing, and spam, other businesses will surely follow their lead. Look forward to Internet Service Providers, e-mail services, and platform providers doing the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
