Email is broken. It’s the largest attack vector in cybersecurity, with 90% of cyberattacks starting through email. Traditional email security solutions rely on reactive measures—phishing tags, static banners, and block lists that put the burden on users. But phishing attacks happen fast with users clicking malicious links within 21 seconds, and within 28 seconds, credentials are compromised. The window to stop an attack is too small for reactive security to be effective.
That’s why we built Shield, Mailprotector’s Zero Trust Email Security solution. Instead of playing catch-up with evolving threats, Shield resets trust to zero and only allows messages that are verified and wanted. We flipped the default: rather than assuming every email is safe and filtering out the bad, Shield assumes every email is untrusted and filters in only the good.
During this live presentation, Mailprotector CTO Ben Hathaway breaks down the fundamental problems in email security and shows how zero trust solves them.
