In this digital age, the sanctity of your mailbox is continuously under threat. The alarming fact is that the majority of malware finds its way into systems through emails. As we march forward into 2023, ensuring the security of your mailbox should be at the top of your priority list.
The Stark Reality of Email Threats
1. The Pervasive Menace of Malware through Emails
According to CSO Online, a staggering 92% of malware attacks are perpetrated via emails. This underlines the vulnerability of our inboxes.
2. The Disguise of Legitimacy
Symantec’s research points out that nearly half – 48%, to be precise – of malicious email attachments masquerade as ordinary office files. This makes discerning a genuine attachment from a malevolent one even more challenging.
