Malware – including viruses, ransomware, spyware, worms, and Trojans - is most commonly delivered via malicious payloads – files and URLs. Thousands of new malware variants appear each day. Legacy solutions fall short when dealing with advanced evasion techniques and defending collaboration platforms.

Advanced Email Security helps you stop malware with multi-layered defenses, including:

Phishing attacks are the root of 91% of all cyberattacks, as reported by CSO Online. They leverage social engineering to deceive their target and gain access to sensitive information by employing files, URLs, and text-based techniques posing as legitimate sources.

Advanced Email Security helps prevent phishing before it reaches end-users with:

Impersonation-based attacks trick employees into making innocent mistakes, thinking they’re communicating with a person they know. A significant part of BEC attempts do not have a malicious payload and leverage only text-based techniques, making them especially tricky to detect and prevent.

The Advanced Email Security helps prevent impersonation attempts with:

Internal phishing can result from account takeovers, malicious employees, or even human error. Legacy technologies commonly neglect internal emails, as scanning 100% of traffic results in delays in email delivery or damages files and URLs.

The Advanced Email Security prevents account takeover attempts and internal phishing with:

Zero-days and APTs are especially hard to catch and prevent. They can lie in wait and strike months before they’re discovered by leveraging unknown software vulnerabilities. Standard APT modules, such as sandboxes or content disarm and reconstruction solutions (CDRs), rely on known data and behaviors that evasion techniques can mask when in a sandbox.

Advanced Email Security's market-leading technology helps you prevent zero-days and APTs:

Email-borne attacks are getting trickier to detect. Attackers use evasion techniques such as new file types, link chains, malicious content hidden within clean files, stalling mechanisms that sandboxes can’t observe, ensuring the malicious payload takes action only when facing actual end-users. For conventional defenses, preventing such techniques is almost impossible as it takes too much time, money, and technological resources.

The Advanced Email Security uses unique technology to prevent evasion techniques that conventional defenses miss:

Account takeover (ATO) has been increasingly commoditized through the cybercriminal ecosystem — whether the target is business email or a company’s bank accounts. Known also as account compromise, ATO occurs when a cyber attacker gains control of a legitimate account. Once they have control of an account, attackers can launch a variety of attacks, such as supply-chain phishing, BEC attacks, data exfiltration, financial fraud, etc. There are no preliminary signs of such an attack; in most cases, once the signs of ATO are obvious, the damage has already been done.

Advanced Email Security helps you to intercept account takeover attempts, at any stage — ready to prevent, detect, and rapidly respond with multiple defense layers.
