Why It’s Time to Rethink Email Security

Email remains the easiest way for cybercriminals to infiltrate businesses. Unfortunately, the built-in Microsoft Defender for Office 365 is no longer keeping up with today’s threats. Obvious spam, phishing emails, and even malicious links are now bypassing its filters, creating real risks for organizations.

Staying with a solution that can’t meet these challenges leads to:

Higher Security Risks: Each spam or phishing email that reaches an inbox is an opportunity for attackers to exploit. This increases the chances of data breaches, ransomware incidents, or stolen credentials.
Lost Productivity: Employees waste time managing spam or recovering from security incidents, disrupting workflow and focus.
Reputational Impact: A security breach can erode trust with customers, clients, and partners.

What’s the better Alternative?

Sophos Central Email Advanced (CEMA) provides the security tools needed to tackle these issues effectively. With advanced spam filtering, proactive threat detection, and customizable controls, it’s designed to protect businesses from modern email-based threats. It also helps maintain productivity by reducing the noise in user inboxes and ensuring critical operations aren’t disrupted by server outages.

In a world where email is still the number one target for attackers, settling for “good enough” is risky. Making the switch to a more robust solution isn’t just about better technology—it’s about safeguarding your business and reducing the risks that come with outdated protections.
