Email Security

Protect your name as well as your inbox

A fake invoice, a convincing sign-in page or an email sent in your company name can create a serious operational issue quickly. We help make email harder to misuse and easier to control.

Why email needs proper attention

Email is trusted, fast and used by everyone. Attackers take advantage of that by impersonating suppliers, directors, Microsoft sign-in pages and delivery services. They do not always need malware if they can trick someone into giving away access.

Good email security combines filtering, domain authentication, user training and mailbox monitoring. Each solves a different part of the problem.

Common email attack scenarios

  • Fake invoice or payment change request.
  • Microsoft 365 password phishing.
  • Mailbox forwarding after account compromise.
  • Supplier or director impersonation.

Controls

What good email security includes

Email filtering

Reduce malicious links, harmful attachments and obvious spam before users see them.

SPF, DKIM and DMARC

Confirm which services are allowed to send as your domain, making it much harder for criminals to impersonate the business.

Microsoft 365 hardening

Review policies, mailbox rules, MFA and risky sign-ins.

Awareness training

Use realistic simulations and practical training to help staff spot attacks technical controls may not catch.

Monitoring

Watch for suspicious account activity, compromised mailboxes and exposed business credentials.

Response process

Know what to do if someone clicks, forwards money or reports a suspicious message.

Free domain check

Check whether your domain is protected from spoofing

Enter your domain to see whether the public email authentication records are in place. It is a useful starting point, but it is not a full security review.

We can review the controls already in place and show the practical next steps.

Email trust path

Make it harder for a bad email to reach the wrong person

Email security is a chain of checks: confirming who sent it, filtering obvious threats and making sure people know when something does not look right.
