Now CIOs can deploy advanced Zero Trust email security tools including Remote Browser Isolation and Data Loss Prevention with any email provider in minutes compared to complex legacy solutions
Cloudflare, Inc. has announced several new Zero Trust email security solutions, compatible with any email provider. This would protect employees from multichannel phishing attacks, prevent sensitive data being exfiltrated via email, and help businesses speed up and simplify deployments.
Now, Cloudflare is providing organizations with its simple and robust phishing and malware protection that is deeply integrated with its Zero Trust platform, helping to secure all of an organization’s applications and data.
“You can’t have a complete Zero Trust solution without securing email, given that a huge proportion of all cyber attacks begin with phishing. In 2022, Cloudflare Area 1 identified and kept almost 2.3 billion unwanted messages out of customer inboxes. Today we’re filling a void in the marketplace that has been underinvested in for the last ten years, with the first set of deeply integrated solutions that bring together Cloudflare Area 1 email security and our Zero Trust platform,” said Matthew Prince, Co-founder & CEO, Cloudflare.
With Cloudflare Area 1’s new solutions, business will be able to automatically isolate suspicious links or attachments in emails. With Link Isolation, if an employee clicks a link in an email it will automatically be opened using Cloudflare’s industry leading Remote Browser Isolation technology.
Area 1 allows identification and stopping exfiltration of data. By combining Cloudflare’s Data Loss Prevention and Area 1, businesses can create specific policies to scan for and block sensitive or protected content before it gets attached and sent. Now it’s is easy to deploy Cloudflare Area 1 for Microsoft 365 domains via the Microsoft API. This means a single IT administrator can have the entire solution fully deployed, and running in minutes not days like legacy providers.
The FBI’s latest Internet Crime Report shows that business email compromise and email account compromise, a subset of malicious phishing campaigns, are the most costly—with U.S. businesses losing nearly $2.4 billion. On top of that, email is also one of the hardest tools for businesses to secure, often resulting in multiple vendors, complex deployments, and a huge drain of resources for IT teams.
