Enhance your cyber protection services with cloud email security

Email is the biggest threat vector for your clients – neutralize it and minimize risks in email communication with a unique technology. Advanced Email Security enables you to offer more thorough cyber protection without increasing your management burden.

Rapidly turn up and provision services

Expand or enhance your services with proven cloud-based email security to meet clients’ rapidly growing security requirements with confidence. Start planning the upgrade of your services without worrying about the time needed to implement; email security is enabled with the flip of a switch and via API-based provisioning for Microsoft 365. Leverage consumption-based pricing and upgrade your costs, margins, profitability, and business plan to secure better additional streams.

Protect your clients’ #1 threat vector from any type of email attack

Phishing emails account for more than 90% of attacks. Minimize the risks for clients when communicating via email and stop threats before they reach their Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Open-Xchange, or other cloud-based or on-premises mailboxes. Intercept modern email threats, including spam, phishing, business email compromise (BEC), account takeover (ATO), spoofing, malware, zero-days, and advanced persistent threats (APTs) in mere seconds with zero false positives. Enhance compliance and increase visibility into admin users and incident response team actions with a comprehensive audit log. Build your services on top of a leading email security solution that scans 100% of traffic at any scale.

Consolidate and streamline your services while saving time and resources

Modernize your security stack with a single solution that ingrates cloud-based email security with backup, recovery, endpoint protection, DLP, and cyber protection management. Reduce the resources needed to deliver multiple services and cut costs through solution consolidation. Significantly reduce the deployment complexity associated with secure email gateways (SEGs) and leverage a cloud-native deployment – up to a few minutes without the need for additional mail exchanger record (MX record) configurations. Increase risk visibility across all email security alerts and incidents.

Build your services on a leading email security solution in SELabs evaluations

Replace the inefficient security stack of sandboxes and content disarm and reconstruction technologies (CDRs) with a multi-layered email security solution for lightning-fast detection that’s easy to deploy and manage.

Scan 100% of traffic in real-time – Scan content across inbound and outbound emails, and prevent lateral movement. Unlike legacy sandboxing solutions, every bit of content – emails, files, and URLs – is analyzed at any scale.
Prevent APTs and zero-days – Block sophisticated threats that evade conventional defenses such as APTs and zero-day attacks with a unique CPU-level analysis that allows action earlier in the attack chain than other technologies.
Effortless, rapid deployment – Cloud-native deployment that integrates directly with the email system without additional configurations, including API-based for Microsoft 365. Reduce the administrative burden associated with a standard secure email gateway (SEG) deployment.
Incident response services – Empower your service delivery and security teams with direct access to cyber analysts and email security experts that monitor all customer traffic and analyze malicious intents with ongoing reporting and support.
Unmatched detection speed – Leverage an unmatched detection speed that allows you to prevent all threats before they reach end-users, compared to the reactive approach of standard email security technologies.

Stop email-borne threats before they reach end-users

Malware and ransomware

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:

Anti-evasion – Detect hidden malicious content
Threat intelligence – Stay ahead of emerging threats
Anti-phishing filters – Detect malicious URLs
Antivirus engines – Stop known malware
Next-generation dynamic engine – Catch zero-days and APTs that evade conventional defenses

Phishing

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:

Anti-evasion – Unpack deeply embedded, hidden phishing attempts
URL reputation – Block known, malicious URLs based on four leading URL reputation engines
Image recognition engine – Block unknown malicious URLs based on the images and logos used on webpages
Threat intelligence – Combine six market-leading sources and Perception Point’s unique engine

Business email compromise (BEC)

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:

Anti-spoofing – Prevent payload-less attacks through machine-learning algorithms with IP reputation, SPF, DKIM, and DMARC record checks
Anti-evasion – Deep scan to detect malicious hidden content
Payload-based protection – Reduce “further along the line” BEC attacks with threat intelligence, phishing, and antivirus engines

Zero-days and APTs

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:

Next-generation dynamic scan – Stop zero-days and APTs with a unique CPU-level technology that detects and blocks advanced attacks at the exploit stage, before malware release, based on the assembly code

Evasion techniques

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:

Anti-evasion – Recursively unpack the content into smaller units which are then dynamically checked by multiple engines in under 30 seconds, compared to 20+ minutes for legacy sandboxing solutions.

Account takeover (ATO)

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.

Prevent credential theft — block phishing attempts to steal employees’ credentials with multiple engines
Monitor accounts for signs of compromise — analyzes end user patterns and behaviors and uses machine learning algorithms to detect anomalies that could suggest an account has been compromised
Instantly detect and remediate compromised accounts — ensure fast remediation and account containment by the incident response team in the event of account takeover
