Email Security Audit
Gain an independent assessment of your email security controls, configurations, and exposure before attackers discover the gaps.
Email security is more than spam filtering
Identity impersonation
Attackers use spoofed identities to deceive employees, partners, and customers.
Business email compromise
Fraudulent requests exploit trusted email relationships to authorise payments or data transfers.
Mailbox compromise
Unauthorised access to mailboxes enables surveillance, data theft, and further attacks.
Configuration weaknesses
Misconfigured settings create gaps that bypass intended security controls.
Authentication gaps
Missing or incomplete email authentication allows domain spoofing and impersonation.
Policy inconsistencies
Uneven policy application leaves some users, domains, or services less protected.
