Email as a Threat Vector in 2023

Abnormal's Director of Threat Intelligence, Crane Hassold, discusses the inherent weaknesses of email and how organizations can defend against attacks.
Email as a Threat Vector in 2023

Email has been around for decades and has become ingrained into both our personal and professional lives. Unfortunately, it wasn’t initially designed with security in mind. The focus was simply on facilitating communication, and the idea of a bad actor leveraging email to compromise a company’s network was unthinkable.

As a result, email remains one of the easiest ways to infiltrate organizations, and we’re stuck playing catch-up while adversaries continue to find new ways to use it as an attack vector.

In a recent interview with ISMG, Abnormal Security’s Director of Threat Intelligence, Crane Hassold, discussed the inherent weaknesses of email, gaps in traditional email security measures, and how organizations can defend against email attacks.
