Spear Phishing

Hackers use this targeted form of phishing to gather information about businesses to draft personalized and convincing messages that are more likely to succeed.

Ransomware

Spoofing

Hackers disguise themselves as someone’s identity to gain unauthorized access to private files.

How Does Email Security Work?

Scan

CRM 360 continuously scans for all inbound traffic and initiates detection through our anti-phishing and anti-malware engines powered by AI.

Detect

If malicious activity has been identified from the scans, a banner alerting you of the threat will appear on the email itself.

Alert

CRM 360 will then send an alert to inform the IT admin of the threat.

Remediate

The CRM 360 auto-remediation tool deletes the email or allows them to be marked as safe. When an email is safe, the domain may be added to an allow list to avoid future alerts.

Awareness

To educate users and prepare them for future threats, there is an option to send an awareness campaign to all infected users.
