Traders Securities Introduces BIMI to Strengthen Email Security Against Phishing

Traders Securities Co., Ltd., a group company of Traders Holdings Co., Ltd. (Tokyo Stock Exchange Standard Market: 8704) that operates foreign exchange margin trading and related businesses, announced that it has introduced BIMI (Brand Indicators for Message Identification), an authentication technology that displays the company’s corporate logo in emails sent to customers, as part of its security measures against phishing fraud and related threats. With this implementation, official emails sent by the company to customers will display the company’s corporate logo. This enables recipients to visually confirm the legitimacy of the sender and is expected to help reduce damage caused by phishing scams. The company also expects improved email visibility to make important notices and communications easier for customers to recognize. The company’s service “LIGHT FX” has also introduced BIMI as part of its security measures. Customers do not need to make any new settings as a result of this implementation. The company will continue working to strengthen security measures so that customers can use its services with confidence.
