Email Protection
Robust defence against phishing and spoofing attacks
Email is the most attacked threat surface. Phishing and spoofing are usually the entry point of today’s email-initiated breaches.
It’s tempting to rely on an email malware filtering tool for all your email protection needs. But it’s not enough. Standalone malware filtering won’t defend against today’s attacks.
Phishing and spoofing attacks use social engineering to persuade your colleagues to give away confidential information or visit a malicious website. The email won’t always contain malware and so it can’t be picked up by malware filtering.
Every week there’s a new announcement of the latest ransomware attack where the breach was made via email. These attacks are too common and too damaging for you to rely on simple malware filtering tools alone.
You need a layered approach to email protection
Only by layering tools and training will you protect your organisation from email-initiated threats.
Our managed email protection solution perfectly complements your existing email filtering tool.
It addresses the two email attack methods that malware filtering misses: phishing and spoofing.
Email Phishing and Spoofing Attacks
Email phishing attacks aim to trick people into giving away sensitive data or other actions that will benefit the cyber-criminal. These emails are sent to thousands of recipients and cause harm to the companies and individuals who unwittingly do as the criminal’s tell them.
Your email malware tool only works on company emails. It doesn’t scan the personal email platforms used by your staff. This means any staff checking their personal email on a work computer will be completely unprotected. As much as we might like staff not to do this, we know they do and so we know we need to deal with it.
Your ‘human firewall’ will be either your strongest or weakest defence against phishing attacks. That’s why you need to train your colleagues to be savvy emailers and help them to help you keep the company safe.
Managed Email Protection from Red Helix supports you by regularly testing your workforce’s cyber awareness, identifying knowledge gaps, and giving the online training needed to improve cyber vigilance and improve your human firewall.
Email spoofing attacks target individuals by credibly posing as someone they trust, like a client, colleague, or supplier. They ask them to take action that they might not question or confirm by other means. This can have devastating consequences and will easily bypass your email malware tool.
Our Email Protection Managed Service
Red Helix’s Email Protection Managed Service uses the very latest technology to address spoofing attacks by analysing the risk profile of the sender. Our system lets the recipient make an informed decision about the email so they can seek confirmation that it really is from who they think it is from and prevent a costly mistake.
The combination of cyber training and the technology features of our Email Protection Service will compliment your email malware filtering tool to provide robust security for your Microsoft 365 Email or Google Mail platform.
