Human Layer Security vs. Legacy Email Security Solutions

Required Capabilities for Comprehensive Email Protection in a Post-Perimeter Architecture

Email is the threat vector security leaders are most worried about protecting, as it’s the most common channel for data exfiltration, fraud, and targeted attacks such as impersonation and phishing.

While legacy security solutions have had particular value in the past, they are quickly becoming too complex and cumbersome for organizations, especially as they move toward more collaborative, cloud-based environments. Perhaps the most important aspect to consider with legacy security providers, is that they don’t engage the end user in any meaningful way. In other words, the context of the data and attachments in emails is never thoroughly examined and understood by the security stacks in organizations, and security and awareness training is an ineffective tick-box exercise.
