Barracuda Networks introduces Forensics and Incident Response for customers who use Barracuda Total Email Protection. The solution provides companies with an automated response to incidents, so that they can quickly and easily combat attacks that take place via e-mail.
In this way, organisations can combat e-mail threats more quickly and efficiently. Attackers are increasingly trying to bypass traditional email security measures using social engineering. The e-mails they send do not contain any malicious code or links, but ask for login details, sensitive information or is a criminal who pretends to be a manager.
Countering attacks
Using Forensics and Incident Response, administrators can investigate targeted attacks reported by users. They can then identify all users who have been attacked and delete malicious e-mails directly from these mailboxes. They can also send targeted users a warning. In addition, the platform can analyse the content of already delivered e-mail messages afterwards for threats. This offers customers and partners new opportunities to proactively detect e-mail threats.
According to Alain Luxembourg, regional director Benelux for Barracuda, it currently often takes companies hours and sometimes even days to identify an attack by e-mail. The reaction to this will then take a long time, partly because many processes are carried out by hand. Forensics and Incident Reponse does something about that according to Luxembourg. It [provides] organizations with the tools and information they need to respond more quickly and proactively to security incidents, within minutes instead of hours or days.
Ian Kilpatrick, EVP Cybersecurity at Nuvias, adds that rapid response and handling of email attacks are crucial for businesses to function properly. To counter the frequent attacks reported by their customers, our EMEA channel partners need automated and intelligent security solutions. Barracuda’s Forensics and Incident Response is a thorough and fast analytical solution that makes it possible to quickly identify and address security incidents.
