Email security (3) - A must-see for companies that have introduced Office365! What cloud email security should be implemented now
Many cyber crimes are said to start with emails.
Although companies have introduced email security products and are taking countermeasures, the current situation is that attackers are also trying to infiltrate using all possible means.
In particular, the number of companies using Office 365 has increased significantly, and simultaneous attacks against multiple targets have been carried out.
Unknown threat detection and analysis of various file types are important for the secure use of Office 365.
In this article, we will analyze the actual situation of targeted attacks and the gap between current security measures and introduce an effective FireEye Email Security solution for companies that are considering introducing Office 365.

(1) Current state of cyberattacks using e-mail
91% of cyberattacks start with receiving malicious emails. We are changing the method from attaching malware to phishing sites using URLs. Many organizations are also victims of spear phishing, which accounts for 84% of the total. From this, we can see that attacks that do not use malware are increasing, and attackers are changing their method from attaching malware to phishing sites using URLs. Therefore, there is a need for a solution that can not only inspect attachments, but also thoroughly inspect URLs in emails for maliciousness.

In the following chapters, we will introduce the results of a survey conducted by FireEye on the number of phishing attacks spoofing Microsoft, and the results of FireEye Email Security's detections regarding the bypassing of Office 365.
