Protect
Email is a critical component of organisational communication because it enables users to communicate quickly, easily, and with a variety of devices. Further, email can be used to send a number of different types of media, and communications can be tracked, stored, and organised according to attributes such as time and date stamps and size.
Email security is important because email contains sensitive information, is used by everyone in the organisation, and is therefore one of a company’s largest targets for attacks. The shift to cloud-based email like Microsoft 365 and Gmail comes with several benefits, but cloud-based email has become a tempting attack surface for cyber criminals. Therefore, an email protection plan needs to include the following best practices to protect email traffic in real time:
- Spam filter: A spam filter can detect spam and keep it from either hitting your inbox or file it as junk mail.
- Email encryption: Email encryption can disguise corporate email by changing communications into a garbled arrangement of letters, numbers, and symbols that someone who intercepts it cannot read.
- Antivirus protection: Antivirus protection screens emails and attachments for viruses, providing the user with warnings if anything suspicious is detected.
- Secure email gateway (SEG): An SEG filters out potentially dangerous emails according to the settings of an IT administrator.
- Multi-factor authentication (MFA): MFA is a key data loss protection and anti-hacking tool because it requires a user to provide more than one authentication factor to prove they should be granted access to a system.
- Employee education: Employees can be educated to recognise social engineering, phishing, and other types of attacks that are typically executed using email.
Cyclone can help assess your risks and put together a email protection plans tailored to your needs.
