Mailbox-Level BEC Protection & Anomaly Detection
The Business Email Compromise Challenge
Organizations around the world now face unprecedented challenges in preventing, detecting and responding to sophisticated phishing attacks like business email compromise (BEC). This type of attack is known by a few different names, including email impersonation, spear phishing, and CEO fraud. Typically, the end goal is to convince employees to wire money to fraudulent accounts or share protected information with attackers who are impersonating high-level executives.
Successful BEC attacks can be devastating to your reputation and your bottom line: The FBI estimates these attacks cost victims $26 billion from June 2016 to July 2019. And security professionals know that 100% prevention isn't possible. BEC attacks do not leverage malicious URLs or malware attachments, so they easily bypass signature-based prevention mechanisms used by SEGs, while legacy BEC protections (DMARC) are only effective for a small subset of phishing threats. That’s why you need a comprehensive anti-phishing solution to protect your organization.
How Can You Stop BEC Attacks?
In the face of increasingly sophisticated email attacks, many organizations are looking for answers to this question – and many are struggling to find a truly comprehensive solution. To give you the edge against attackers, the IRONSCALES SaaS platform takes an inside-out approach to e-mail security. That means we start from the individual mailbox (or thousands of them) and work in the other direction, covering the full spectrum of phishing challenges, both technical and non-technical, from bot-driven malware to social engineering (BEC, impersonation) to gamified awareness training.
