Considerations Email Protection

The best Email protection solution can be implemented to protect an organization, but without user awareness of the phishing problems of your employees it might be a lost investment.  

While email protection solutions significantly enhance security by detecting and mitigating many threats, they cannot completely stop users from clicking on malicious links. A multi-layered approach combining technological defenses, user training, and vigilant security practices is essential to minimize the risk. User awareness and education play a crucial role in complementing these technical measures.

User behaviour Email

To know whether Email Protection might be a high priority for your customers, can be shown by the use of a email threat scanner.

The Barracuda Email Threat Scanner uses the Microsoft 365 account and its artificial intelligence engine to scan the Microsoft 365 accounts for various attacks that might be sitting in the user mailboxes. The cloud-based scanner runs in the background and can find threats including spear phishing attacks, business email compromise and account takeover attempts. 

When finished, the scan highlights : 

  • Threats found in your organization – by number
  • Threats found in your organization – by type
  • Which of your employees have the most threats
  • The status of your domain’s DMARC record

Barracuda Email Threat Scanner scans emails received in the last 12 months. It takes about two minutes to sign up for the scan. The scan duration depends on the size of your Microsoft 365 mailboxes and can take from 1 to 24 hours.

Some of the most dangerous threats are crafted to slip past email filters. Barracuda uses Advanced Threat Protection, a cloud-based service that guards against ransomware and other malware, including new and sophisticated threats.

We believe you shouldn’t have to sacrifice performance for security. Barracuda employs multiple layers of analysis, such as behavioral analytics, static analysis, and CPU-emulation sandboxing, to identify and stop unknown and tricky threats.

Block advanced threats
Block malicious emails

Block Malicious email links

Hackers and spammers often put links in emails that can trick you into revealing personal information or lead you to harmful websites. Barracuda’s link protection helps keep users safe from these threats.

Barracuda automatically changes deceptive links in incoming emails and checks the URLs and domains in real-time when clicked. Users are redirected safely to a valid site or warned about the fraudulent link. These rewritten links never expire and always work to keep you protected.

Protect outbound email and stop data leaks.

Sometimes, employees can accidentally turn internal systems into sources of spam or malicious mail. Outbound filtering stops these internal threats, protecting your partners and customers and preventing your organization from being blacklisted as a spam sender.

Barracuda’s data-loss protection and email encryption ensure that sensitive information, like credit card numbers, Social Security numbers, and HIPAA data, stays within your organization. Content policies can automatically encrypt, quarantine, or block specific outgoing emails based on their content, sender, or recipient, keeping your data secure.

3. Account Takeover Protection

Account Takeover is one the 13 measures within Email Protection for detecting and remediating account takeover with use of AI. This solution prevents lateral phishing and attacks on your business partners. Lock you attackers out of compromised mailboxes! 

 

Corporate account takeover is a serious threat to businesses. Hackers use stolen login details to access corporate email accounts and then launch targeted attacks both inside the company and against external contacts. These attacks are hard to detect because they come from legitimate accounts and look like they are from trusted sources. Traditional email security solutions usually don’t monitor internal traffic, so they can’t stop attacks that originate from within.

Prevent loss credentials

Prevent loss of credentials and account takeover

Barracuda identifies both attempts to take over accounts and attacks from compromised ones. By examining historical and incoming data, the AI spots unusual behavior, content, and link patterns within your organization to flag and quarantine suspicious emails. It also prevents attempts to steal employee credentials by automatically blocking targeted phishing emails designed to capture passwords.

Detect account takeover in progress and alert IT.

Once hackers get access to an email account, they can move around within your organization, trying to hack into more important accounts. They watch and learn how your company operates to launch attacks on your partners and customers. With Barracuda, your IT team gets alerts about suspicious activities in email accounts, such as strange log-ins, changes in inbox settings, and malicious emails sent from within the company.

Detect account takeover
Remediate account takeover

Remediate account takeover and remove malicious email messages.

Account takeovers can seriously harm organizations and need to be fixed quickly once discovered. IT admins must block hackers from accessing compromised accounts, identify any harmful messages, and alert recipients. Barracuda’s account takeover remediation tool helps admins delete all internal email attacks sent from compromised accounts and notify any external recipients. IT teams can quickly lock out hackers from these accounts to prevent further malicious use.

4. Domain Fraud Protection

Domain Fraud Protection is one the 13 measures within Email Protection for protecting your brands from spoofing and impersonation and simplifying email authentication. 

Stop brand impersonation attacks on your customers and business partners.

Hackers often use domain spoofing and brand hijacking in social engineering attacks. These techniques target not only your employees but also your customers, external partners, and others who trust your brand. Such impersonation attacks can result in financial losses and harm your brand’s reputation.

Stop brand impersonation
See who sends mails on your behalf

See who sends email messages on your behalf.

DMARC (Domain-based Message Authentication Reporting and Conformance) is an email security standard designed to prevent domain spoofing, so attackers can’t use your company’s brand to send fake emails. It automatically rejects emails that don’t come from your legitimate email systems. Barracuda’s DMARC gives you control over your brand and stops these impersonation attacks.

Simplify DMARC enforcement.

Many organizations find it challenging to set up and enforce DMARC on their own, which leaves them and their partners vulnerable to impersonation attacks. With many companies having numerous email senders, it’s crucial to have detailed visibility into all traffic using their brand to implement DMARC standards effectively.

Barracuda offers DMARC reporting to help organizations properly set up DMARC enforcement. This reduces the chances of false positives, such as blocking legitimate emails or misidentifying a genuine sender.

Simplify DMARC Enforcement
Ensure Deliverability

Ensure deliverability of your email and get better marketing ROI.

Email campaigns are only effective if your customers receive your messages. Sending an email without DMARC authentication raises the risk of it being mistakenly marked as spam. Barracuda offers comprehensive DMARC reporting, analysis, and visibility to help ensure your emails reach their intended recipients, maximizing deliverability and boosting engagement with your email programs.

5. Web Security

Web Security is one the 13 measures within Email Protection for blocking access to malicious content and stop unproductive and inappropriate web browsing. 

Protect your email users and network from malicious URLs.

When your email security blocks an attack, the last thing you want is for the same attack to sneak in through a malicious link. Barracuda Email Protection includes integrated Web Security, ensuring that when an email-borne attack is blocked, all users are also instantly prevented from accessing the same harmful content anywhere on your network.

Limit damage
Keep malware out

Keep malware out of your inboxes and off your network.

A single click from one of your users can unleash destructive malware into your network. Barracuda offers advanced Web Security to prevent users from accessing harmful web content, whether it arrives via email or other communication channels like Microsoft Teams and Slack. With the optional device agent, you can monitor your key endpoint assets, checking their status and OS information to ensure comprehensive protection.

Stop inappropriate web browsing.

Unregulated web activity can drain your organization’s bandwidth and cause compliance issues. Barracuda’s preloaded category filters block inappropriate content, ensuring employees stay productive and compliant while browsing the web. With our optional device agent, you can easily customize these filters by user group and location to meet your organization’s specific needs.

7. Incident Response

Incident Response is one the 13 measures within Email Protection for proactively identifying security threats with threat insights.

Reduce the impact and cost of email attacks.

When email attacks slip past security and reach your users’ inboxes, swift and precise action is crucial to prevent harm and contain the threat. Manually responding to attacks is slow and inefficient, allowing threats to spread and cause more damage.

Barracuda Incident Response automates this process, enabling you to quickly identify the attack’s nature and scope, instantly remove malicious emails, and rapidly implement remediation actions to stop the attack and minimize damage.

Respond faster and more effectively with:

  • Post-delivery threat removal
  • Notification of affected users

Cloud-to-Cloud backup Barracuda
Effective ransomware protection

Effective ransomware protection

Your backup is your best defense against a ransomware attack, so it’s crucial to have a reliable backup of all your important data, including SaaS data in Microsoft 365. While Microsoft provides features like the recycle bin, it isn’t designed to serve as a comprehensive backup and recovery solution. That’s why Microsoft recommends using a third-party backup for Microsoft 365, such as Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup.

Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup not only makes it easy to locate and restore the data you need, but it also offers essential features like immutable storage, which prevents data from being modified or deleted except through the secure Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup interface. Your data is further protected by security measures such as Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), five levels of role-based access control to manage user permissions, and end-to-end encryption.

If you ever need assistance, Barracuda’s award-winning 24/7 technical support is just a phone call away.

10. Email Encryption

Email encryption is one the 13 measures within Email Protection for secure data at-rest and in-motion. 

Go beyond traditional email encryption.

Deploying standalone email encryption services can be so cumbersome to manage and use that many users decide to bypass their organization’s secure communication policies. Barracuda offers easy-to-use email encryption that is highly secure and integrated into a comprehensive email protection solution. More importantly, Barracuda combines email encryption with other layers of data protection, including data leak prevention, archiving, and filtering, to block malware and advanced threats.

Deploy in the cloud
Secure data in transit and on every server.

Secure data in transit and on every server.

Transport Layer Security (TLS) creates a secure channel for data transmission, ensuring that all content, emails, and attachments are encrypted while being sent. This is known as data-in-motion security because it protects the data during the transmission process.

However, TLS doesn’t secure data at rest. This means that your emails and attachments could be unprotected while stored on sending and receiving servers or on other servers and gateways that process emails in transit. Therefore, TLS alone doesn’t fully secure your emails.

Barracuda encrypts all emails and attachments on every server where they are stored. If a user replies to an encrypted message, the reply is also automatically encrypted, ensuring continuous protection.

Use AES-256 encryption with automatic key management.

Barracuda secures all encrypted emails using 256-bit keys, commonly known as AES-256. These keys are stored in Barracuda’s geographically-distributed data centers, with multiple copies for redundancy. The data centers maintain strict physical security and access control measures. Additionally, the data centers and the keys used for encryption are stored in separate areas for added security.

Once an email is encrypted, the recipient receives a notification with a link to the Barracuda Message Center. Access to the message requires HTTPS. First-time users will need to create a password, which they will use for all subsequent access. Any replies are also sent via the Barracuda Message Center to ensure continued security.

AES-256 encryption with automatic key management.
Meet compliance with specially-designed training.

Simplify compliance with granular encryption policies.

For encryption to be effective, it’s crucial to use it on emails containing sensitive or legally-protected information. This is especially important for heavily-regulated industries like healthcare, finance, and legal sectors, which are required to secure certain types of data.

With Barracuda, you can easily set up policies to automatically encrypt emails based on factors such as the sender, recipient, keywords, domain, and other criteria. This ensures a safe and reliable way to share sensitive information with customers and partners, reducing the risk of data loss and helping you meet regulatory compliance requirements.

Leverage data protection that goes beyond encryption.

Email encryption can control who accesses your emails after they leave your organization, but it doesn’t prevent unauthorized users from sending emails containing sensitive data, like credit card numbers, social security numbers, or HIPAA-protected information. Data Leak Prevention (DLP) automatically scans every outgoing email for sensitive content and can automatically encrypt, quarantine, or block the email based on its content.

Your data is further safeguarded by email archiving, which enforces email-retention policies with a tamper-proof copy of all communications. Additionally, Barracuda provides a full cloud-based backup of every email, ensuring your data is protected if your mail server goes down or important emails are accidentally deleted by users.

Leverage data protection that goes beyond encryption.

11. Cloud Archiving

Cloud Archive is one the 13 measures within Email Protection for retaining email communication and reduce storage requirements of your Exchange Server. 

Keep email communication safe and tamper-free

Barracuda stores your archived data outside of your operational email environment in a dedicated, tamperproof repository. This ensures the data is retained for as long as you need it, without any risk of corruption or deletion.

By reducing the volume of data managed by your email server, you can significantly cut costs and boost operational efficiency. Users can stay within storage limits without having to export PST files or delete data, which could potentially jeopardize your compliance with regulations.

Keep email communication safe and tamper-free.
Compliancy

Ensure regulatory compliance.

Our policy-based approach utilizes granular retention policies to automatically keep each item of data securely for the required duration. This ensures you can confidently meet government and regulatory requirements while maintaining defensible deletion policies.

It’s simple to prove the accuracy and completeness of your archive and provide a chain of custody for every data item. Role-based security controls ensure that only authorized personnel can access the data in the archive, and comprehensive audit trails record every system and user activity.

Streamline e-discovery

The indexed archive offers iterative, multi-level search and tagging capabilities, which greatly reduce the time and effort needed to respond to audit and discovery requests.

With an intuitive, role-based interface, you can easily locate specific messages when needed and demonstrate the accuracy and completeness of the data returned for each case. Selected data can be placed on legal hold on a case-by-case basis for as long as necessary, and then exported for analysis or disclosure.

Streamline e-discovery
Access archived emails anytime and anywhere.

Access archived emails anytime and anywhere.

Barracuda Cloud Archiving Service allows users to easily access their archived data from any location and device.

12. Data Inspector

Data Inspector is one the 13 measures within Email Protection for finding and remediating sensitive data and malware in SharePoint and OneDrive 

Get insight into sensitive data

SharePoint and OneDrive deployments can improperly store sensitive data, such as Social Security numbers, credit card information, network credentials, and more, putting your data at risk.

With Barracuda Data Inspector, you can see exactly what kind of data has been found, whether it has been shared internally or externally, and where it’s located. You can remediate that data by unsharing it, quarantining it, or deleting it entirely.

Data Inspector also identifies sensitive information in images, including photos, screenshots, and document scans. You can further customize by creating your own data classifiers to identify specific information types, such as employee or student IDs, project codenames, and other proprietary information.
