Email Security for Microsoft 365

Despite the built-in email protection provided by Microsoft Exchange Online Protection (EOP) in Microsoft 365, 85% of users have experienced an email data breach over the past year.

Modern Threats Bypass One-Layer Security

EOP takes a retrospective approach to identifying phishing and malware attacks. This type of protection does not safeguard against human error, and is ineffective in anticipating emerging zero-day attacks and malicious URLs and attachments that are not included in its static lists.

Inflexible Security Misses Targeted Attacks

EOP is not customizable to meet businesses’ unique security needs. This results in a limited ability to identify anomalous emails and social engineering attacks, leaving businesses vulnerable to account takeovers, business email compromise (BEC), and targeted spear phishing attacks that often result in credential theft.

Homogeneous Architecture Makes it Easier for Attackers to Bypass Security Defenses

Due to the homogeneity of the Microsoft 365 security system, cyber thieves can open any account, test their methods until they are able to bypass default filters, and reuse these methods in attacks targeting thousands of different accounts.

Complex to Configure & Manage Securely

Secure setup and configuration require IT expertise that many SMBs lack, and Microsoft fails to provide assistance with setup and the ongoing system monitoring, maintenance, and support required to prevent misconfiguration vulnerabilities and keep Microsoft 365 customers secure.

The Hidden Dangers of Inadequately Secured Cloud Email

Without complementary security defenses in place, Microsoft 365 users are susceptible to a wide array of dangerous attacks, including credential phishing, malware, and impersonation scams. Malicious actors craft highly targeted Microsoft 365 phishing campaigns designed to either steal credentials, which can be used to compromise accounts, obtain access to sensitive data, and steal money, or download destructive malware on a victim’s system. Thirty percent of these attack campaigns make it through existing systems and are opened by target users. A successful attack can shake an organization to its core, especially in this difficult time, with financial loss, data theft, downtime, and reputation damage.

Combat Credential Phishing and Prevent Email Fraud with Proactive Email Vigilance

Impersonation scams such as phishing, business email compromise (BEC), and email account compromise (EAC) continue to plague Microsoft 365 users. In these attacks, cybercriminals pose as trusted senders, including executives, colleagues, or reputable organizations, to trick users into revealing credentials or downloading malware. These scams often use malicious URLs that lead to fraudulent websites where login information is stolen.

To stop these threats, EnGarde Cloud Email Security scans all URLs and attachments in real time, ensuring only safe, legitimate mail is delivered.

EnGarde also combats spoofing and sender fraud with layered email authentication protocols and advanced global intelligence. It evaluates hundreds of thousands of attributes across every email to detect threats the moment they appear.
