H2 2023 - Applications Abound: Average Organization Now Integrates 379 Third-Party Applications with Email

Get an in-depth look at the biggest threats to your organization’s security, including vulnerabilities created by third-party applications.

Points clés

The average organization integrates 379 third-party apps with email, each potentially able to read/write emails or manipulate company data.

Organizations with 30,000+ employees have an average of 3,973 third-party applications installed.

Organizations with 5,000+ mailboxes face a 90%+ chance of receiving at least one BEC attack per week.

Vendor email compromise attacks rose 34% compared to the previous two halves.

Third-party applications increase productivity and streamline workflows. But each time a user authorizes access to a new third-party application, they may be granting it the power to read and write emails, create calendar invitations, edit or delete company files, or manipulate data in other ways—all of which can put the organization's security at risk.

The number of connected third-party applications is increasing rapidly. And making matters worse, inbound email attacks are increasing too.
