SPRING CLEAN YOUR MAIL BOX
Over 120 billion business emails will be sent this year – Spam, phishing, malware and ransomware are just some of the hazards these emails could carry.
As long as businesses keep sending and receiving emails, the bad guys will keep using them to try and attack the communication line of businesses.

It is imperative to have a multi-layered email security policy in place, whether you use on-premise or cloud-based email solutions, the same security precautions apply:
- Anti-virus and spam protection is a must as up to 90% of emails sent are spam
- Also look for solutions that defend against malware, ransomware and targeted email attacks such as spear phishing and spoofing attacks
- Consider greylisting (prevents unknown apps launching) as well as white and blacklisting
- Use email encryption when sending confidential emails to protect data and automatically enforce GDPR compliance requirements.
- Educate employees on tactics attackers use to help them identify threats – do not open an email from unfamiliar senders. When in doubt, delete without opening it. Verify first before opening any attachments.
