Organizations are under constant threat of cybercrime. While there are many available attack vectors, email is the most obvious path towards a full network compromise. The notion that email security should be prioritized is emphasized during this time where more and more businesses are still working in a remote or hybrid dynamic environment.

Many low-code applications are built for the purpose of moving data from one place to another usually as a result of some external trigger, such as the arrival of a new email message. In the case of an email-triggering low-code application, if low-code security best practices are not strictly followed, attackers may abuse the application to set rogue automated email forwarding rules, which can be used to steal data, impersonate as corporate users and mount phishing campaigns.

Step one of any automation Story is to get information into Tines. This can be done in several ways, including via a Webhook or polling for alerts. But in many cases, the starting point will be through email.

Proofpoint Essentials MSP services leverage the same enterprise-class security that powers some of the world’s largest and most security-conscious companies for SMBs.

Email messaging is the most widely used form of communication, whether in the business world or in our daily personal lives. And it is because of this reason that email communication is one of the most targeted areas by cybercriminals.

We’ve all had it happen. You receive an email telling you that you’ve won a prize draw you never entered or a foreign prince wants to transfer you a huge sum of money and needs your bank details.

Over the years, phishing scams have become harder to detect and many have fallen victim as a result.

Regardless of the industry or organization, corporate email is the main cause of unauthorized and accidental data leaks. Employees are constantly sending emails to external parties that may contain sensitive company data, personally identifiable information (PII), trade secrets and other intellectual property.

From nation-state threat actors to typical cybercriminals, the public sector faces a multitude of cybersecurity threats. At the same time, public-sector organizations struggle to maintain a robust cyber hygiene posture because they need to balance limited budgets with complex IT environments and highly interconnected ecosystems.
