Microsoft 365 Security & Email Security
Ensure your Microsoft 365 environment and email are protected.
What is Microsoft 365 Security and Email Security?
Microsoft’s suite of solutions, including email, are popular targets for hackers due to their widespread use. This ubiquity makes them a prime target for cybercriminals seeking to exploit vulnerabilities and gain access to vast amounts of sensitive data.
The sheer volume of users and organizations relying on Microsoft products creates a large attack surface, increasing the potential impact of successful breaches. While Microsoft 365 offers a comprehensive suite of security solutions designed to protect your data and users, the platform is not inherently secure out of the box. The default configurations may not provide adequate protection against sophisticated cyberattacks.
Many organizations fail to fully utilize the security features available within Microsoft 365, leaving them vulnerable to various threats. These threats can range from phishing and malware attacks to more complex exploits targeting specific vulnerabilities in the platform.
To get the most out of your investment in Microsoft 365, you need to best configure and integrate strong security measures into your applications and email.
Why Microsoft 365 Security & Email Security Matter

The Email Line of Defense
Email has long been a favorite target of cyber criminals, with “phishing” being the most common form of attack.
In fact, out of the estimated 347 billion emails that are sent every day, roughly 3.4 billion of them are malicious.
As a percentage, that may not seem like a lot, but given the sheer number of bad messages being blasted out on a daily basis, it’s no wonder that more than a third of all data breaches involve email.
Because of this, email scanning and filtering needs to be high on every organization’s list of security measures. Not just to declutter spam from inboxes, but also to protect from much more catastrophic attacks.
