Abstract
A double anti-phish, personalized, security token for use with electronic communications is provided. The security token may be embedded in each electronic communication transmitted from an entity to a recipient. A first part of the token may be embedded in a body of the communication. A second part of the token may be embedded in a header of the communication. The second part of the security token may validate that the electronic communication is indeed from the entity. Upon validation, the second part may instruct the first part to display a validation symbol. Upon failure to validate, the second part may instruct the first part to display an alert symbol. The recipient receiving the electronic communication may use the first part of the validation symbol as a visual aid to determine a level of confidence of whether the electronic communication has been validated as being transmitted by the entity.
