The Internet obviously includes several services, including email, which preserves a large part of the use of online services. Like Internet browsing, email itself may be subject to attacks, or may expose itself to security risks that concern privacy in the first place, or the fraudulent exploitation of recipients’ addresses, using social engineering methods.
The processing of emails certainly goes through a few steps that chronologically describe the process of opening the account, writing, and sending. Throughout these processes, security intervenes to protect the information that circulates on the Internet network.
Several protocols (computer data processing standards) are used to ensure the routing of login information and sending. An uninformed user can easily disclose this sensitive information to a malicious person if certain guidelines that protect them are not followed, most often when using email clients.
Email protection is not just about sending, but also about receiving emails. In some cases, the user may see his inbox explode with what is called “spam”; hundreds or thousands of messages that fall back from a malicious sender, and that manifest as spam.
Email can still contain malicious programs, hidden in images, or attached documents, in the manner of a Trojan horse. This causes system instability as soon as the recipient tries to view the attached document.
In this respect, several measures have been taken to combat Trojan hair and spam; and encryption protocols have been developed. Antivirus software provides valuable protection against malware, and email clients have themselves integrated anti-spam programs and other unwanted advertising messages. The use of email accounts on browsers has the advantage of providing automatic protection, thanks to encryption and authentication protocols, and high-performance anti-spam services, often outsourced to a third-party provider specializing in email content filtering and recipient authentication.
VitoProg offers you its email security services for your company by establishing general email filtering strategies for viruses, malware or any type of spam. VitoProg could also correctly configure your email clients (Outlook or Thunderbird for example) for better security and assurance while reading your email.
