Email Security: vendors and distributors in Southeast Asia
Products that stop phishing, business email compromise and malware arriving by email, and that train staff to recognise them: secure email gateways, API-based cloud email security, DMARC enforcement, archiving and security awareness training. Almost all of it is sold per mailbox or per user as a cloud service.
What is sold under this label
- Secure email gateway (SEG)
- Sits in the mail flow and filters spam, malware and phishing before delivery.
- API-based cloud email security
- Connects to Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace through their APIs and removes threats inside the mailbox, without changing mail routing.
- Business email compromise (BEC) protection
- Detects impersonation and payment-fraud emails that carry no malware or link, usually by modelling normal communication patterns.
- DMARC and domain protection
- Publishes and enforces policies that stop others from sending email as the organisation's domain.
- Security awareness training
- Training content and simulated phishing that measure and improve how staff respond to suspicious messages.
- Email archiving and encryption
- Retains mail for legal and regulatory purposes and encrypts sensitive messages.
