The State of Email Security – Mike Flouton – BSW #288
Barracuda just finished an email security survey. We start to dig into the results and the impact for 2023, including:
- 86% of respondents in all the countries surveyed said third party email security solutions are essential to keep our Microsoft 365 environment secure
- This rises to 92% for respondents in the U.S.
- And to 91% for companies with between 250 and 499 employees
Also:
- Just under one in five (19%) of all respondents said their top email security concern with Microsoft 365 was data protection and the risk of data loss
- This rises to one in four (25%) among the frontline IT managers and professionals surveyed
