Security
Protect against dynamic threats to
keep your email infrastructure safe
SOLUTION BRIEF

Email is crucial for modern businesses. But its widespread use also makes
it vulnerable—it’s the number one threat vector and main entry point for
cyberattacks because it can be highly targeted and customized.

Many email security solutions

today use antispam filters and
antivirus software that don’t
respond fast enough to attacks
and leave security gaps. And
with traditional tools focused on
detecting malware, cybercriminals
are adapting and using dynamic
malwareless techniques. This can
open your organization to risks
ranging from wasted time to the
complete shutdown of operations.

To keep your email infrastructure

safe and build a confident,
resilient organization, you need
a new approach that prioritizes
email protection as a key
component of holistic extended
detection and response (XDR).
