Email Security Snapshot: Fast Facts About Modern Threats

When an organization adopts cloud email, it yields plenty of benefits—streamlined communication, enhanced collaboration, and increased innovation, to name a few. Unfortunately, it also expands that organization’s attack surface and creates additional vulnerabilities for threat actors to exploit.

At the recent GDS Security Digital Summit, one of Abnormal’s Sales Engineers, Laz Macias, hosted a presentation on current trends and key issues in cloud email security. From the inability of traditional rules-based security platforms to block socially-engineered attacks to the proven efficacy of Abnormal’s behavioral approach, Laz covered a lot of ground during his 10-minute session.

For a quick (but thorough) summary of the biggest email security challenges today’s CISOs are facing, watch the video below:

The Takeaway

Legacy technology like a secure email gateway (SEG) simply doesn’t have the functionality necessary to combat socially-engineered attacks. To protect your organization from the full spectrum of modern email attacks, you need a platform that learns from your unique email environment and blocks malicious messages before they can be delivered.
