As the number one threat vector for most organizations, email continues to be widely used by cybercriminals to penetrate organizations in support of a wide variety of cyberattacks.

Recent business email compromise and other sophisticated phishing-related attacks all too often elude traditional email security controls, contributing billions of dollars to the pockets of criminals.
