Legacy email security systems are failing, as more enterprises migrate their emails to the cloud and cyber-attacks become more professional and difficult to detect. Companies in all industries and government agencies simply are not moving fast enough to counter the increasingly sophisticated threats like business email compromise (BEC) and account takeover attacks.
Predictive, AI-based email security is proving to be remarkably effective at protecting against today's most advanced business email compromise (BEC) scams, phishing attacks, and other rapidly evolving email threats. But only when it's done right.
Enterprise email architecture is evolving, which is good news for cybercriminals. Legacy secure email gateways (SEGs) simply don't provide full protection from today’s evolving and costly attacks, and cloud-based email requires a new security approach.
As the healthcare industry closes the books on 2018, it is still reeling from more than 327 major data breaches that exposed personal health information (PHI) on at least 9.8 million US citizens this past year.
Account takeover-based email scams are climbing fast as the barriers to entry crumble for cybercriminals. But is advanced, AI-driven email protection really the solution?
Consider yourself warned: Account takeover (ATO)-based email attacks have surged 126% in just the last year, and now represent the single most successful attack vector against businesses.
According to a study from Agari and Osterman Research, a staggering 44% of all businesses have fallen victim to ATO-based scams, which are email attacks launched from hijacked accounts.
Losses from business email compromise (BEC) attacks targeting title companies, real estate firms and others are up 136% in just 18 months. Here's what you need to know to avoid becoming the next victim
If the term “Account Takeover” (ATO) wasn’t part of your cybersecurity vocabulary before, it likely will be soon. According to a new report published by Agari, Account Takeover-based email attacks are on the rise. The research conducted by Agari sites a 126% increase month to month in targeted email attacks that exploit Account Takeover tactics since the beginning of 2018.
