How Sentrya started
Ever since I created my first email address (more than 15 years
ago), my inbox got filled with annoying spam and useless junk.
From the Nigerian Prince, to the Amazon scams, to today's new
wave of spam coming from @gmail or @outlook addresses
5 years ago, I landed a job at a startup working in the Data Protection industry. I immediately fell in love with it, and found some pretty interesting things - that companies sell our personal information, how much they make from it, and that anyone can buy this data, including spammers and scammers.
Last year, I finally made the leap and started learning to code. I did this because I knew that I couldn't beat spammers without a bare minimum of technical knowledge. In my learning journey and through some in depth research, I found out why spam still finds its way into our inbox in 2024, and why even these tech giants like Google, Microsoft and all the others, still haven't found a way to stop them - spammers are constantly changing and adapting, and spam filters can't keep up with it.
Since they tried all these complicated methods and continue to chase these spammers, why not go back to the basics? What if I can create a wall around my inbox, and let it only the people I want?
And that's exactly what I did. I came up with a way to easily create personalised Whitelists with senders I trust and need, and automatically delete all the rest of the junk.
I went through some tweaks, testing this thourouly, and it worked!
I went from around 250 useless emails and about 50 spam in a week, to 20 important emails and 0 spam the next week.
