Trends in email threats

The number of zero-day threats not recognized by traditional antiviruses is constantly growing and poses a serious threat to email. 

Attackers are becoming increasingly aware of organizations' internal structures and are using social engineering techniques to bypass defenses.

Phishing attacks have become much more sophisticated, often masquerading as authoritative sources or important corporate communications. 

Challenges IT security departments face every day 

According to Verizon, 86% of malware is delivered via email. Free mailboxes and trial versions of professional contact databases make it easy for attackers to compile lists of victims and send them mass emails: 

  • Files infected with malicious macros and hidden scripts that can steal passwords, install trojans or ransomware, or download other malicious files. 

  • Malicious URLs that infect the system after the user clicks on a link. 

  • Targeted attacks, such as spear-phishing and business email compromise, which take a more personalized approach and encourage the user to trust the sender. 

  • a

    Attacks based on social engineering, when unauthorized emails are sent from seemingly legitimate but fake domains. 

  • Spam, which clogs up the inbox with questionable content and reduces productivity. 

New technologies to improve email security

Attachment-based security 

Identify unknown threats and provide valuable information for future protection by analyzing suspicious files and emails, removing potentially harmful content by scrubbing dangerous objects, and using an advanced sandbox in real time. 

AI algorithms against phishing 

Protect users from phishing and spam attacks with tools based on the Al algorithm, which has high detection rates and low false positives. 

CDR against zero-day attacks 

Use up to 30 times faster CDR technology to clean files of all potentially malicious content and reconstruct them into an entirely usable format.
Decrypt and do the same for all password-protected attachments. 

URL-based security 

Redirect suspicious links for real-time reputation checks. Machine learning helps model reputable behavior and detect anomalies.

Data loss prevention 

Enforce controls that redact protected information to avoid violations of regulatory requirements, such as PCI, HIPAA, and GDPR and prevent sensitive information dissemination. 

Multi-scanning  

Detect 98% of malware with 30+ antivirus engines. Analyze emails using signatures, heuristics, and machine learning technologies.

Get a solution that meets today's cybersecurity challenges and proactively delivers robust protection, freeing your teams to focus on strategic tasks.  

Protect against threats with multi-scanning malware

OPSWAT offers advanced threat prevention and protection against email-based malware outbreaks. OPSWAT scans every email message with more than 30 antivirus engines that use signatures, heuristics, and machine learning technologies to achieve a detection rate of over 99%.

Most secure email gateways have a single antivirus engine; no matter how often virus definitions are updated, any antivirus engine may miss some threats. Companies can significantly increase the likelihood of quickly detecting and remediating a new threat by using multiple antivirus engines simultaneously. 

Disarm suspicious attachments to prevent zero-day attacks with Deep CDR

OPSWAT Deep Content Disarm and Reconstruction (Deep CDR) technology can sanitize over 100 common file types, removing embedded threats and potentially harmful content to create clean, usable files for maximum security and performance. 

Analyze URL reputation to prevent phishing and BEC

Block emails with known phishing links and spam domains. Intercept malicious emails before they reach the user's inbox by checking the reputation of domains in the headers and embedded URLs in the body of the email.

Real-time analysis when a link is opened increases the effectiveness of protection. It also uses additional URL reputation checks at the time of click. Machine learning and advanced heuristic filters protect against spear phishing and BEC attacks. 

Perform static and dynamic analysis with sandboxing capabilities

With the integrated OPSWAT Filescan, OPSWAT Email Gateway Security quickly and efficiently detects malware and finds compromise indicators (CIs) using unique adaptive analysis technology. OPSWAT Filescan can also emulate Microsoft Office files, PDFs, PowerShell, and more, which helps prevent phishing emails and sophisticated email threats. 

Maintain regulatory compliance by redacting sensitive information

Ensure compliance with various regulatory requirements with OPSWAT Proactive Data Loss Prevention (DLP), which automatically redacts sensitive information to meet regulatory requirements. MetaDefender Email Gateway Security inspects the content of email bodies and attachments to prevent sensitive information from leaking.
