Guides|by Leanne Bevan|21 February 2025
What features should you look for in email security? How can you compare what different suppliers are offering? Do you even need a better email security solution?
What we do know is this: cyberattacks are growing in number and sophistication.
The state of email security
According to a report by Gov.uk, "the most common type of breach or attack is phishing (84% of businesses and 83% of charities). This is followed, to a much lesser extent, by others impersonating organisations in emails or online (35% of businesses and 37% of charities) and then viruses or other malware (17% of businesses and 14% of charities)."
That's a lot of attacks, right? So, having the right email security in place to protect your business from cyberattacks is essential.
