Not all email security is created equal

There's a plethora of email security solutions on the market and many SMBs choose Microsoft 365 with its world-leading suite of technologies.  Once a chosen solution's in place there's an assumption it'll provide all that’s needed to keep emails and sensitive data safe.  This isn’t always the case many businesses remain blissfully unaware of the potential risks they face. 

Whichever you've chosen, you need to know whatever's thrown your way will be stopped in its tracks.

Recognise the biggest threat is staff, pupils and parents

Given most security breaches come as a result of the action of authorised network users it comes as no surprise that these mistakes are cited as the top threat to sensitive data.  It therefore, makes even more sense to remove assumptions and guesswork from the equation and know for sure the state of your email security landscape.
