Office 365 is a capable and robust platform with a wide collection of features and functions. Like any large platform with diverse capabilities and a diverse user base, customers must analyze if it provides the depth of capability or specialized functionality they require in areas like security, archiving, authentication, eDiscovery, encryption, and file sharing.

To help IT and security managers identify such feature or performance gaps, Osterman Research has just published a 22-page report entitled Why Your Company Needs Third-Party Solutions for Office 365. In this webinar, Michael Osterman will review the results contained in the report of detailed research into Office 365’s functionality across several areas. A complimentary copy of the report will be provided to all webinar attendees.

The choices available to those evaluating email and web security products and services today are many and confusing. Smaller and mid-sized enterprises will often not have the luxury of a team of staff to do the research and technical evaluation, nor will they have access to third-party analyst research to guide them.

For companies that have migrated to Office 365 or are planning to, the inclusion of some bundled, basic email security exacerbates the complexity of this process.

The Microsoft Office 365 platform currently blocks over 5 billion phishing messages a year. But as mass and targeted phishing attacks increase in volume, speed and evasiveness, is additional protection needed to secure Office 365 email for your organization?

To answer this question, Osterman Research’s principal analyst share insights from a recent study of Office 365 deployments, and Cyren’s global director of solution engineering walk through the phishing kill chain and point to practical opportunities to enhance defenses.

The introduction of the EU GDPR has forced mid-market and smaller enterprises to re-think their data governance processes. Many now recognise the benefits of following similar best practices to those adopted by larger enterprises. Others have seen a significant increase in subject access requests and are struggling to locate information in a timely manner to meet the new response deadline.

The result is that organisations of all sizes are showing renewed interest in email archiving. However, the options available can be confusing – from the native archiving built into your email service, like Office 365 or G-Suite, to an enterprise scale archive for all data and content types.

A decade ago, email threats were well understood and reasonably under control, leading email security to become “commoditized” and vendors to diversify into other services, losing focus on security. This lack of investment and innovation in email security is evident in the success of modern threats like ransomware and phishing, and begs the question ‘How much malware, phishing and spam is really getting through to my users?’

Cyren has developed a free Email Security Gap Analysis test in order to measure how well a company’s in-place security is performing relative to detection by Cyren’s global security cloud, and recently published a report with aggregated data on results from assessments done in September and October. The webinar will cover a discussion of the findings in that report, additional insights and threat examples uncovered during assessments (appropriately anonymized), and how to have your own gap analysis done.

Participants in the webinar will come away with a sense of:

• How much spam, malware and phishing are current email security systems missing?
• What was the range of results for different assessment participants, considering different case studies? What factors drive higher or lower “miss” rates for malicious emails, even for systems provided by the same security vendor?
• What might be an expectation for my own company’s security?
• How is an email gap analysis conducted? What is involved in terms of configuration and are there any impacts to current email operations?
• How can I arrange to run an Email Security Gap Analysis for my own company? What are the eligibility requirements?

According to analyst firm Gartner, 70% of new or replacement email archiving solutions are SaaS. This reflects the general trend of moving to the cloud to reduce operational complexity and realize a low total cost of ownership. But is this right for you and if so, how do you choose the correct provider?

View this 30-minute webcast to discover:

• The benefits of deploying email archiving in the cloud
• Why email archiving is no longer just for regulated industries
• The critical capabilities that you should look for in your email archiving solution

Ransomware such as Petya and WannaCry are targeting businesses with massive hybrid cyber-attacks that leverage both email and the web to fool your employees and penetrate your cyber-defenses. These attacks encrypt all the files on your employees’ computers and demand ransom payments via Bitcoin to decrypt the data.

So far, law enforcement has been helpless against these attacks, and IT teams are struggling to protect their organizations from these sophisticated threats.
