Why are our traditional email and endpoint security tools failing us? First, most email deployments lack any authentication of outside senders. Given this vulnerability, it’s trivial to execute spoo ng and falsi ed email content that purports to come from a trusted entity the recipient knows and trusts. Second, attackers are using cloud-based email and “detection-busting” techniques such as fake identities, deceptive sender names and phony domains to beat defenses. Clearly, given the prevalence of email-borne threats, protecting email infrastructure and end users needs to be a high priority for all security teams today. To this end, SANS had the opportunity to review Agari Enterprise Protect and the Agari Email Trust Platform.
