As cyber threats evolve, we face growing email security challenges. Hackers and cyber criminals relentlessly continue to attack businesses as users continue to fall for email scams. That’s why we must continue to be aware of the best practices for securing our email.

Email security is complex and involves much more than simple spam filtering. Any email server or secure email gateway must include a variety of tools to block the latest email-borne threats. These tools must be able to detect spam, phishing, spoofing, malware, and much more.

 

Here are our top 9 recommendations to help businesses avoid becoming victim of email-borne threats

Tip #1: Protect Against Spam

Have a system to analyze & score spam

Almost all mail servers and secure email gateways have some form of spam filtering built-in. Most rely on a scoring system that analyzes inbound emails for spam-like characteristics and assesses a scoring value for each. Many email security products use industry standard SpamAssassin to perform these tasks. In both MDaemon and SecurityGateway, administrators can adjust the spam score threshold to make the spam filter more aggressive at blocking junk email.

Here's an example of MDaemon's spam scoring settings, which can be found by navigating to Spam Filter | Filter Settings in MDaemon Remote Administration.
