Email being the primary means of business communication is important and must be secured. It's the easiest target for hackers to cause security breach in your network.
Email security secures control over the content access of an email account. An email service provider deploys efficient email security to protect subscribed email accounts and data from hackers both when it is at rest and when it is passed on to the recipient.
Phishing emails trick users into giving sensitive information, approving fake invoices, or downloading malware that can go on to infect your network.
Phishing Attacks
In phishing attacks hackers usually send malicious emails and when the users open the attachment or link that comes along they are redirected to malicious websites which cause data breaches thereby compromising the users system.
Weak Passwords
Most of the users tend to keep their passwords which are either their name, birth date etc which are very easy to guess. Weak passwords are an easy target for hackers to hijack the data without the user coming to know about it.
Malicious links and Attachments
Most of the business emails are compromised (BEC) as the users try to download or open the link that was sent in the email. The example for such a case can be a ransomware attack where your data can be encrypted and money can be demanded to release the encryption key.
