A breach itself is bad enough, but the time it takes an organization to discover and contain that breach is where the majority of costs are incurred.

By the end of this year, 77% of all enterprises will have moved at least some of their operations into the cloud—including email. At the same time, we're seeing that fraudsters have been doing some modernizing of their own. 

New forms of phishing attacks and other advanced email threats can cost your clients—and your brand—more than you may realize.

You could call her a dream client: well-heeled, well-connected, and surely worth a fortune in potential referrals. But when a pair of business email compromise (BEC) attacks against an accountant at her wealth management firm led to $350,000 in losses, the relationship could have gone sour, fast.

Business Email Compromise (BEC) is on the rise, and Office 365 users are among the most heavily targeted. With new LinkedIn-integration features potentially upping the stakes, here's what you need to know now.

Every year, more than 5 million homes are bought and sold in the U.S. Given this volume, it should come as no surprise that the real estate industry is a prime target for email-based crimes.

Deceptive emails are used by cyberattackers to carry out three different types of attacks:

One of the things that often stumps even the most security conscious companies is knowing all the third-party email service providers they are working with.
