Email Security Tools FAQ
Common questions about Email Security tools, selection guides, pricing, and comparisons.
Email security gateways (SEGs) sit in front of your mail server, filtering emails before delivery using MX record redirection. API-based email security integrates directly with email platforms like Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace via APIs, analyzing emails post-delivery and retroactively removing threats. API-based solutions are better at catching sophisticated phishing and BEC attacks that bypass gateway reputation checks.
BEC attacks use social engineering rather than malware, making them invisible to traditional email filters. Protection requires: AI-based email analysis that detects tone and behavioral anomalies, DMARC/DKIM/SPF authentication to prevent domain spoofing, executive impersonation detection, out-of-band verification for financial requests, and security awareness training focused on recognizing social engineering tactics.
Microsoft Defender for Office 365 provides baseline protection including anti-phishing, safe attachments, and safe links. However, independent tests consistently show that dedicated third-party email security tools catch 10-20% more sophisticated threats, particularly targeted phishing, zero-day payloads, and BEC attacks. Most security teams layer a third-party solution on top of Microsoft native protections.
