Frequently Asked Questions

  • Why is email security important?

    An organzation's most sensitive data is present in its emails. With the rising possibility of attackers gaining access to these emails, protecting them with an additional layer of security becomes important. Enhancing your email security ensures that emails with cyberattacks such as spam, phishing, spoofing and malware do not gain unauthenticated access.

  • What are the some of the best practices for robust email security?

    Ensure that you have a robust cloud email security solution which is continuously updated to combat new kinds of threats. Migrate from legacy on-premise email security gateways and regularly review your email security policies and settings to provide top-notch security for your users. Additionally, conduct periodic security awareness trainings and inform users that they should exercise caution while opening emails, links and attachments from unknown senders.

  • How does a cloud email security gateway work?

    A cloud email security gateway works to prevent email threats from reaching a user's mailbox and works in addition to the security provided by your email provider. The email security gateway stands as an intermediate layer between the email sending server and the receiving server while filtering any harmful content that your email provider's security systems could fail to detect.

  • How should I deal with a suspicious or spam email?

    When you encounter a suspicious email, it's best to mark the email as spam and report the email to your organization's email administrator. Depending on the nature of the email, your administrator could consider configuring email security policies both in eProtect and your email provider.

  • What are the prevalent email security threats?

    Email security threats can broadly be classified into five types, namely spam, phishing, spoofing, malware and zero-day attacks. Phishing can be further classified into spear phishing, business email compromise, credential harvesting, etc. Similarly, spoofing can be of varying types such as brand impersonation, VIP fraud, CEO impersonation, social engineering attacks and more. Malware could occur as ransomware, spyware, adware, viruses, etc.

    eProtect's security capabilities provide protection from all of these attacks.

  • What is the difference between a cloud and on-premise email security provider?

    In an on-premise email security provider, physical servers need to be set up and maintained in an on-premise location. With cloud email security providers, no server maintenance is required and the emails are scanned for threats through the cloud. This makes the cloud options less prone to third-party attacks, while ensuring better safety and stability.
