Email Attachment Filtering & Sandboxing

Why inspect email attachments on your internal network when you can run email attachment filtering in the cloud with Spambrella?!…

Cybercriminals are profit-driven businesses that focus their resources on techniques and tools that deliver the greatest return on investment. Small to medium enterprises are often seen as easier targets because they are generally protected by less sophisticated software or in some cases not protected at all. Unfortunately, attackers have worked this out and realize that targeting a smaller enterprise can actually mean an easier path to reward in the end. 

Spambrella research shows that attachment-based campaigns can actually cost cyber criminals 50% less than URL-based attacks, making their return on investment even greater. Phishing campaigns that utilized document attachments increased by 1,500% over 2014 to 2015 to exploit of this financial advantage. 

Spambrella takes a unique approach to threat detection and email security by taking advantage of our enterprise-class Targeted Attack Protection analysis techniques and a cloud-based architecture to identify and block suspicious messages. This helps organizations further protect their end-users by adding additional layers of security that cannot be matched by traditional email security solutions and gateways.
