In today’s world where hybrid and remote work are on the rise, and companies rely on email now more than ever, phishing remains one of the most prominent and sophisticated techniques that malicious actors utilize to attack organizations and gain access to their most sensitive information. Twenty-seven percent of all cyberattacks involve business email compromise campaigns—making email the primary entry point and a key vector of compromise.1 To protect effectively against this constantly changing and evolving threat landscape, organizations need to proactively implement protection directly integrated with their email systems to stop attacks before they get to endpoints or other assets.
Microsoft has worked with organizations globally to protect against ransomware and phishing and is excited to announce that SE Labs named Microsoft Defender for Office 365 the Best Email Security Service of 2023.
Protect against sophisticated attacks like business email compromise and ransomware with Microsoft’s XDR
Email security is embedded into Microsoft’s unified extended detection and response (XDR) solution: Microsoft 365 Defender. The cross-domain XDR technology uses signals across email, endpoint, on-premises and cloud identities, as well as cloud apps to illuminate the entire kill chain and protect your organization more effectively from modern threats like ransomware and business email compromise. While it delivers game-changing capabilities like automatic attack disruption, which stops active threats early and stops them from progressing, prevention is another critical XDR component to stop threats at the front door. That’s why Microsoft recommends that you evaluate XDR solutions that provide phishing protection through email security and identity access management.
