Targeted emails are a popular approach for malicious hackers to take advantage of weak security protocols and execute malware or phishing attacks. According to Small Business Trends, 43% of all cyberattacks specifically target small businesses. The 2019 cybersecurity analysis report from Proofpoint revealed that even heavily regulated industries are vulnerable to cloud account compromise – a staggering 20% of all attack campaigns in the finance sector result in a breach. As such, falling victim to a successful phishing attack could cause a breach in an organization’s network.
Robust protection is needed to secure email accounts. Our best-in-class email protection solution provides advanced security from constantly evolving email threats. Our solution takes a multi-layered approach to email security and includes an array of features including:
Email Data Loss Prevention (DLP)
Email DLP is an essential component of comprehensive email security. With the right DLP tools, you eliminate the risk that’s inherent in individuals making security and disclosure policy decisions. Our policy-driven DLP filters use built-in term dictionaries and identifiers to automatically secure sensitive outgoing information such as personally identifiable information (PII), financial information, personal health information (PHI), or data subject to GDPR regulations.
Email Encryption
Loss of confidential information can lead to heavy fines, loss of trust, and negative publicity for businesses. Email encryption protects email content by encoding it such that it is only readable by the intended recipient. When sensitive information is identified within the contents of an email, it is automatically encrypted before being sent. Additionally, your users can conveniently trigger encryption by including a pre-defined tag in the subject line. Encrypted emails are removed from the system after 15 days to ensure that sensitive data is not retained any longer than needed.
Email Spoofing Prevention
Malicious hackers often fabricate headers and sender addresses to make it seem as if the email has originated from a legitimate source. The attackers try to obtain information or credentials by pretending to represent an individual or organization that you trust. Carefully crafted “spoof” emails from fraud accounts can be very difficult to spot even for an experienced user. Our email protection solution uses heuristic scanning technology to discover and flag emails from attackers attempting to target your organization.
Email Content Filtering
Enabling email filtering is an essential step to avoid being victimized by phishing and scam emails. Unwanted emails cause significant problems for organizations by consuming bandwidth, adding to security concerns, and slowing overall system performance. Email filtering software analyzes inbound messages to check for malware, spam, and other malicious or undesired content. Our email filtering solution utilizes powerful algorithms and an adaptive rules engine to meet your specific filtering requirements. This facilitates both content and event-based email management and allows for highly sensitive control over email traffic. Our industry-leading email protection solution also provides URL and attachment defense capabilities to detect and block malicious messages directed at your organization.
Email Continuity
Email disruption is a leading cause of breaks in customer contact and directly impacts customer satisfaction. In the event of an email service outage, our email protection solution queues, or “spools” incoming emails. Once service is restored, it delivers them back to you seamlessly. We also offer additional features like an emergency inbox and an instant overview of lost/deleted emails over the past month.
Email Archiving for Legal Compliance
Archiving emails is crucial for businesses looking to meet regulatory and legal requirements. Our email protection solution stores all emails and attachments in an encrypted archive where they can be quickly searched for and retrieved. It allows for the import of data from both legacy archives and Exchange. Your data is stored in compliance with your retention policy, for up to 10 years. Our solution can also implement a company-wide legal hold to retain all archived messages indefinitely – while the legal hold is in place, even archived messages that have reached their retention period remain in the Archive.
Security Awareness Training
Additionally, we offer security awareness training as part of our email protection service. We improve your organization’s security posture by helping your employees understand people-centric risks. Our carefully curated training program is designed to make users aware of their role in protecting the organization from email-based threats and cyberattacks. The program uses simulations to identify potential risks and trains users to spot and report malicious activity.
Our enterprise-grade email protection solution offers advanced threat protection powered by cutting-edge machine learning technology. It adapts to the continually changing tactics of cyberattacks. Contact us today to learn more about how we can upgrade your email security strategy.
