What is an Email Security Solution?
Email security solutions function as a security barrier for email communications within an organization's network by inspecting incoming emails for advanced threats, such as malicious links, phishing attempts and malware attachments, and by monitoring outbound email traffic. With more pervasive cyberattacks at every turn and business intersection, it’s imperative to protect your organization’s infrastructure from being infiltrated. As revealed in IC3’s Internet Crime Report from 2021, over $44 million in losses were attributed as a direct result of successful phishing and advanced email scams.
In the working environment that we conduct business in today, a solution that protects your on-premises, cloud-based, or hybrid environment is a requisite step on the course of defending against the most sophisticated attacks. As substantiated in the headlines of last few years, threat actors and attackers don’t prioritize one type of business or industry over another – becoming a target of a cyberattack is a looming threat for enterprise-level organizations to small businesses and consumers alike.
How does an Email Security Solution work?
Email security solutions rely on layered defenses to protect organizations. And while many solutions contain built-in security features and controls like spam filters or the ability to set alerts that warn of unknown senders, many services fall short when it comes to additional protections that TRULY defend against evolving cyber threats and email vector attacks.
A comprehensive email security solution can protect email from many external threats and even internal attacks. Thus, it is essential to have a solution that goes above and beyond the default which stands OUT from the crowd and stands UP against commonplace scams and advanced email attacks and tactics – like impersonation and social engineering.

Government
Government Agencies and Administrators Targeted for Impersonation
Fraudulent criminal organizations often pose as government agencies by impersonating their email communications. Using identity deception techniques, such as spoofing, cybercriminals impersonate government agency emails, targeting the public with phishing scams. This is just one reason the US Department of Homeland Security issued BOD-18-01, requiring all United States federal government .gov domains to implement DMARC.
Government agencies use Agari to prevent phishing attacks on citizens, secure government email accounts from spear phishing attacks, and reduce Security Operation Center workloads associated with incident response and remediation.
