Email Security in 2025: What to Know
Email continues to be one of the most heavily targeted gateways into an organization, and attackers are getting smarter. At Fortis Cyber Solutions, we recognize that modern email security requires more than spam filters.
The 2025 Email Threat Landscape
Phishing scams are more sophisticated than ever, often using AI to craft hyper-personalized messages that bypass traditional detection. Worse yet, attackers now exploit trusted platforms like eSignature and invoicing tools to deliver malicious links that appear legitimate.
The Big Problem?
Many businesses haven’t adopted basic protections. According to recent reports, more than half of organizations still lack fundamental email protection like SPF, DKIM, and DMARC, making spoofing and impersonation attacks far too easy.
Email Security Best Practices Every Business Should Follow:
- Authenticate Everything: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC without delay.
- Layer Your Defenses: Use advanced email security tools with threat intelligence capabilities.
- Train Your Team: Human error remains a leading cause of breaches. Ongoing phishing simulations and training are critical.
- Require MFA: For email access, multi-factor authentication is critical.
- Audit Regularly: Don’t assume your system is secure. Validate it frequently.
