It may be surprising, but more than 90% of cyberattacks start with an email. Email remains a prime target for attackers because of its ubiquity and its potential to exploit human vulnerabilities. To better protect businesses, it’s crucial to understand the top email threats and how to mitigate them.
Barracuda’s threat spotlight identifies key risks, including ransomware, phishing, and business email compromise (BEC). These attacks have the potential to disrupt operations, steal sensitive data, and damage reputations. Staying informed and proactive is essential for maintaining robust email security.
While traditional email gateways remain an integral part of security infrastructure, they are not sufficient on their own to combat evolving threats. Sophisticated attacks can bypass these gateways, landing directly in users’ inboxes. To address this gap, businesses need proactive protection mechanisms that detect and mitigate threats before they cause harm.
The Case for API-Based Inbox Defence
Unlike traditional gateways, API-based inbox defence leverages historical communication data and advanced machine learning to detect anomalous emails. These systems identify threats that evade the gateway, such as impersonation attempts or well-crafted phishing emails. Once detected, malicious emails can be removed from inboxes instantaneously, reducing the likelihood of a successful attack.
Barracuda’s Email Threat Scanner is a powerful tool that provides insight into potential vulnerabilities. By scanning your Microsoft 365 environment, it delivers a customized report highlighting threats already present in your inbox. This free tool is a great starting point for understanding your exposure and taking action to enhance email security.
