Email and Application Security

Secure email and applications, the focal points of modern business, from unauthorized access, loss or compromise.

The Need for Email and Application Security

Emails and applications are the heart of today’s digital business. Whether servicing employees, partners or customers, emails and applications drive business growth, create new revenue streams and increase customer value. Thus, emails and applications have become a significant focal point for modern businesses.

Email is the most important business communication tool—and simultaneously, the most used for cyber attacks. In fact, attackers turn to email as the primary vector for spreading malware. Attackers also use social engineering to create sophisticated and highly targeted Business Email Compromise (BEC) and phishing campaigns. Email Security enables your users to communicate securely and helps your organization combat Business Email Compromise (BEC), ransomware, advanced malware, phishing, spam, and data loss with a multilayered approach to security.

The applications we need to do business are no longer just residing in a single, physical data center. Sure, there are some applications running in your on-premises data center. But some are also running in offsite data centers, or in your private cloud. Applications are moving targets; they run everywhere and are constantly changing, making them difficult to secure. Application security encompasses securing an application throughout its life cycle. Syndrome’s application security offers cloud workload protection to reduce the attack surface with automated micro-segmentation based on recommended policies tailored to your applications, and complete visibility of application behaviors, dependencies, and vulnerabilities.

Benefits of Email and Application Security

Multi-factor authentication

Email and application security uses two forms of authentication to grant access to a system: traditional username and password, and the assurance from an associated device that the user requesting access is trusted. This zero-trust method is an additional layer of security that helps ensure threats will be blocked while your users gain secure network access.

Performance monitoring

The security solutions allow performance monitoring and are able to detect issues before customers notice, protecting your business’s reputation and allowing you to develop a proactive solution. This end-to-end security approach uses machine learning to provide a baseline, automate anomaly detection, and help IT teams to secure emails and applications. You can reduce the risk of a breach with real-time performance intelligence.

High precision alerts

The technology detects and responds to advanced threats across private and public cloud networks. It gives you insights and context of applications on the network with high-precision alerts using machine learning, behavioral modeling, and telemetry.

Greater insights

Having security closer to your email and applications gives you greater insight and control of what is running in your environment so you can make intelligent decisions to protect them.

Adaptability

The security solutions understand and adapt to your unique requirements and varied dependencies, helping you reduce your risks by automatically detecting and preventing threats.

Forged email detection

Forged email detection protects against BEC attacks focused on executives, who are considered high-value targets. Forged-email detection helps you block these customized attacks and provides detailed logs on all attempts and actions taken.

Our expertise

Syndrome’s security portfolio delivers greater protection for your network against an increasingly evolving and complex set of threats. Our engineers lay a foundation for security that is both agile and integrated. From your data center, branch offices, cloud environments, and everywhere in between, Syndrome gives you robust protection against even the most sophisticated threats without compromising on performance when inspecting encrypted traffic.

Define security needs

Before proposing or installing any solution, the team at Syndrome, first helps you define the level of IT network security necessary for your organization. In conjunction with your key executives, we assess any existing solutions, identify sensitive areas that need more protection and determine all points of access that need to be secured.

]

Planning

Once the assessment is complete, you’ll have a clearer picture of your exact security needs. We plan with your key executives on important aspects like whether to replace or upgrade vulnerable components, integrate new software or improve network access permissions.

]

Priorities and budgets

It is likely that there won’t be one solution to meet all your needs, hence we help you prioritize the list in terms of critical and non-critical, and include budgetary constraints. A well-thought out and detailed specification will pave the way to finalizing an implementation plan that meets your business’s needs.

]

Constant monitoring

Despite the best network security system you will have malicious attackers constantly probing your network for weak points. Our engineers constantly review your audit logs to find relevant information on potential threats. They tweak your security settings based on the audit log and respond before any breach occurs.

]

Security focused culture

We, at Syndrome, take your network security very seriously. We ensure your employees are updated on basic security measures, even if they’re not in the IT department. This includes identifying and reporting suspected phishing attempts and social engineering attacks. We hold regular training sessions on common network vulnerabilities and how to prevent them. We even help you create fake network attacks to gauge your employees’ level of preparedness.
